Обязанности

Work as the primary program lead for cyber security and coordinate delivery of the Core Tech cross-departmental programme, including the roadmap, milestones, cross-team dependencies, risks, and the reporting that gives leadership a clear and honest view of progress
Act as the connective tissue between Workplace IT, Cyber Security, Production Operations, and Developer Experience - running cadences and supporting artefacts, and working relationships that bring separate backlogs into a coordinated programme
Plan and coordinate complex, cross-functional technical programmes, translating strategy into clear milestones, owners, and timelines
Run the operating rhythm - stand-ups, planning sessions, reviews, and retrospectives - keeping agile teams focused and moving
Get into the technical detail with teams to understand trade-offs, pressure-test plans, and support informed decisions. Build strong, trust-based relationships across engineering, security, operations, and leadership, using those connections to unblock work quickly and escalate early where needed
Communicate clearly and consistently, surfacing status, risks, and decisions to both engineers and senior stakeholders and tailoring the message to the audience
Contribute to continuous improvement in how Core Tech teams plan and deliver, maintaining lightweight programme artefacts - roadmaps, RAID logs, and dependency maps - that teams genuinely find useful

Требования

Experience in technical programme or project management, contributing to the delivery of complex programmes in a software or technology organisation
A good technical background that allows you to hold your own in engineering, infrastructure, or security conversations and reason about technical trade-offs
Experienced with hands-on programme and project management across multiple teams and stakeholders simultaneously
Strong communication skills, both verbally and in writing, with the ability to move fluidly between engineers and senior leaders
Ability to build networks and drive meaningful working relationships to get things done, including in environments where you hold no formal authority
A genuine comfort with agile ways of working, and the confidence to act with a bias toward action on incomplete information
Ideally, experience across one or more of Workplace IT, Cyber Security, Production Operations, or Developer Experience and platform engineering
It would be helpful if you have a background in a fast-scaling consumer or e-commerce technology business, familiarity with tools such as Jira and Confluence, or relevant certifications such as PMP, Scrum, or SAFe - though hands-on delivery always matters more than credentials

We prioritise career growth with clear career paths, transparent pay bands, personal learning budgets, and regular learning days. Jump on board and supercharge your career from day one!
