Technical Programme Manager

£90,000 to £95,000 12 month contract London, hybrid working 3 days per week in office

We're supporting a large scale, consumer facing technology business on the hire of a Technical Programme Manager to join their Transformation and Delivery function on a 12 month contract. This role sits at the centre of business wide technical change, owning complex, cross functional programmes that cut across systems, data platforms, engineering and tooling.

The business operates at significant scale and complexity, with transformation initiatives becoming increasingly critical to how it delivers growth, governance and operational efficiency. This role works closely with senior leaders across the organisation, including C suite and VP level stakeholders, translating complex technical programmes into clear strategic narratives.

This is not a delivery only role. You'll be expected to operate in ambiguous problem spaces, bring structure where there is uncertainty, and drive momentum across initiatives that don't naturally sit within a single function.
