📍 Central London | Hybrid Working

TRIA are delighted to be partnering with a high-profile, values-driven organisation in central London who are continuing to invest heavily in their Business Change function. Following sustained growth, they are now looking to appoint an experienced Programme Manager to lead major, organisation-wide change initiatives.

This is a senior, influential role within a large and mature change portfolio, working alongside some truly outstanding Programme and Project Managers. If you thrive in complex environments, enjoy shaping strategic change and have the gravitas to operate at the highest level, this could be a fantastic next step.

The Role

As Programme Manager, you will take full ownership of large-scale business change programmes from conception through to delivery and operational handover. These programmes span multiple departments and disciplines, and are directly aligned to the organisation's strategic objectives.

You will:

  • Provide senior-level leadership and strategic direction across major programmes
  • Act as the single point of accountability for programme performance, risks, issues, dependencies and change
  • Present a clear, consolidated view of progress to C-suite and Board-level stakeholders
  • Lead and influence multi-disciplinary, matrix-managed teams, ensuring consistent delivery standards and governance
  • Manage cross-programme dependencies, resource allocation and budget control
  • Oversee programme budgets typically ranging from £250k to £10m
  • Manage and assure third-party suppliers and contracts where required
  • Act as a trusted advisor to Senior Managers, providing expertise in governance, planning, reporting, risk and change management

About You

You'll be a confident, delivery-focused Programme Manager with a proven track record of leading complex business change in large organisations. You'll bring both strong technical programme management capability and excellent people leadership skills, with the ability to influence at every level.

Key experience required:

  • Full end-to-end Programme Management at a senior level
  • Delivery of complex, high-value, high-profile programmes
  • Strong governance, risk, issue and change management experience
  • Business change delivery across multiple functions, including IT
  • Senior stakeholder engagement, including Board and C-suite
  • Matrix management of Project and Programme Managers
  • Supplier and contract management experience
  • Ability to work hybrid/remote while building strong internal relationships

Experience working within a structured MSP and PRINCE2 environment is essential, with MSP and/or PRINCE2 certification strongly preferred.

Package & Benefits

  • £70,000 - £80,000 salary (depending on experience)
  • 30 days annual leave + Christmas shutdown
  • Outstanding pension contribution
  • Flexible hybrid working model
  • A genuinely supportive, collaborative and high-calibre change environment

If you're an experienced Programme Manager looking for a high-impact, senior role with excellent benefits and real influence across an organisation, we'd love to hear from you.
