- As Programme Manager , you'll be the person who turns strategic direction into structured, trackable, real-world delivery. You won't manage the teams — but you'll shape how they work, what they work on, and whether the initiatives your Head of Operations is driving actually stick. This is a senior individual contributor role for someone who is equally at home building a project plan, designing a process, and presenting to a VP.
- You'll sit across the whole of Trade Lifecycle, partnering closely with Finance, Product, Engineering, Sales, and CRM to make sure the right things get built, rolled out, and embedded — not just kicked off.
- Strategic programme management: own the delivery of Trade Lifecycle's most critical initiatives end to end — from scoping and planning through to execution and review
- Tooling and systems rollout: lead the planning and delivery of tooling changes across Retention, Credit Control, and Trade Support — working closely with stakeholders to define requirements, manage timelines, and make sure the teams are set up to use new systems effectively.
- Process design and standardisation: identify where processes are inconsistent, undocumented, or breaking down under scale — and fix them.
- Change management and embedding: new initiatives have a habit of not sticking. You'll own the change management layer — stakeholder communication, rollout sequencing, training and adoption tracking
- Cross-functional alignment: act as the senior point of coordination between Trade Lifecycle and Finance, Product, Engineering, Sales, and CRM.
- Insight and performance tracking: build and maintain the reporting infrastructure that shows whether strategic initiatives are working. Own the KPI framework for transformation delivery
- It's not about ticking every box. It's about turning up curious, ready to crack on. You'll do well here if you bring:
- Depth of experience in a programme, operations, or strategy delivery role — ideally in a high-growth tech or marketplace business.
- Proven track record of delivering complex, cross-functional initiatives from design through to measurable outcome — not just managing the plan, but owning the result.
- Strong project management instincts — you can hold multiple workstreams simultaneously, spot dependencies before they become blockers, and keep senior stakeholders clearly informed without overwhelming them.
- Experience leading tooling or systems rollouts in an operational environment — you understand the change management challenge, not just the technical one.
- Proficiency with project management tooling (e.g. Jira, Asana, Monday, or equivalent) and reporting tools (e.g. Tableau, Looker, or Sheets/Excel at an advanced level).
