We are seeking a highly experienced Programme Manager to lead the delivery of a major programme implementing a new Target Operating Model (TOM) across a government organisation.

This role requires exceptional stakeholder leadership, strong programme structuring capability, and a pragmatic, outcome-focused mindset.

Key Responsibilities

• Engage and influence Executive and senior leadership stakeholders to drive alignment and decision-making
• Manage programme-level risks, issues, dependencies, and progress
• Ensure coherence and integration across multiple change and delivery workstreams
• Drive delivery through hands-on leadership where required-not just oversight
• Bring pace, clarity, and accountability to all elements of the programme

Key Skills & Experience

• Extensive experience leading complex transformation and organisational change programmes
• Strong track record delivering Target Operating Model or major operating model change initiatives
• Able to operate confidently and credibly with Executive-level stakeholders
• Excellent programme structuring, governance, and delivery management capability
• Able to move comfortably between strategic thinking and practical delivery
• Pragmatic, outcome-focused, and effective in fast-moving or ambiguous environments
• Hands-on approach, able to step into delivery detail when needed

We're looking for someone who combines strategic programme leadership with relentless delivery focus-bringing pace, structure, and clarity to ensure successful implementation of the new operating model.

The Programme Manager is required 9 months initially; hybrid working (2-3 days in the office); and is Outside of IR35.
