We’re supporting an international organisation on a major internal transformation programme and are looking for a Senior Project Manager to lead delivery within a Commercial programme.

This initiative focuses on improving efficiency and standardising processes across the commercial function (financial services). Several workstreams are already defined and the project is now moving into execution. The successful contractor will take ownership of delivery and coordinate activity across multiple stakeholders internationally.

Areas in scope include:

• Credit limits management

• Operational efficiency and process improvement initiatives

You’ll be responsible for driving these initiatives forward and ensuring delivery across multiple workstreams.

• Senior level project management experience delivering complex transformation or strategic change programmes

• Proven ability to drive execution across multiple workstreams

• Experience working in international or multi-country environments

• Comfortable managing senior stakeholders and producing C-level reporting

• Strong governance, planning, risk and delivery management
