Are you a Programme Manager who thrives on establishing order and driving delivery in complex environments? We’re seeking an interim professional to lead the governance set-up and oversight for several new programmes of work with a major organisation in West Yorkshire.

Key Responsibilities

  • Governance Design & Implementation: Develop and embed robust governance frameworks to ensure clarity, accountability, and effective decision-making across multiple programmes.
  • Planning & Delivery: Run planning workshops, create detailed delivery plans, and ensure all programmes are set up for success from day one.
  • Monitoring & Facilitation: Oversee adherence to governance processes, monitor progress, and facilitate working groups to keep delivery on track.
  • Stakeholder Engagement: Use your excellent communication skills to engage and influence stakeholders at all levels, driving collaboration and buy-in across teams.
  • Continuous Improvement: Identify opportunities to refine processes and deliver greater value throughout the programme lifecycle.
What We’re Looking For

  • Proven experience in programme management, with a strong track record of designing and implementing governance structures.
  • Skilled in planning, running workshops, and translating strategy into actionable plans.
  • Confident facilitator, able to monitor compliance and keep teams aligned and motivated.
  • Excellent communicator, adept at building relationships and driving engagement across diverse stakeholder groups.
  • Regulatory experience is helpful but not essential—governance and delivery expertise are the priority.
