Your new company
A global financial services organisation delivering large-scale transformation across its operations and technology platforms, with a strong focus on automation and workflow optimisation.
Your new role
As Agile Programme Manager, you’ll take ownership of multiple concurrent initiatives (typically £3-£5m in size, 10-30 people each), leading them from initial concept and funding through to delivery.
Operating across Product, Engineering and Operations, you’ll act as the key “glue” between teams – translating technical detail into clear updates for senior stakeholders, while driving delivery at squad level.
You’ll build and manage roadmaps, oversee dependencies, manage budgets, and ensure Agile teams remain aligned to strategic outcomes. The role sits within an operations-focused programme environment, covering a mix of regulatory, technical, and automation-driven change.
What you'll need to succeed
- Proven experience delivering multiple concurrent programmes within financial services (equities/regulatory exposure highly desirable)
- Strong Agile delivery across engineering squads, with the ability to embed into teams and drive outcomes.
- Solid technical fluency—comfortable engaging with engineers and translating detail for senior stakeholders
- Experience building roadmaps, managing budgets, and overseeing full life cycle delivery
- Strong stakeholder management with confidence to challenge and influence
- Ability to operate across shifting priorities (regulatory, technical, operational change)
- Hands-on experience with Jira; exposure to financial tooling (e.g. Clarity) beneficial
- Proactive, resilient and solutions-driven mindset
What you'll get in return
- Ownership of high-impact, business-critical programmes
- Broad exposure across operations, technology and regulatory change
- Fast-paced, collaborative environment with strong autonomy
- Competitive package and clear scope for progression
