Programme Delivery Manager

Description:

Senior Project / Programme Delivery Manager - 6 Months - Outside IR35 - £550-£600p/d

Location: Jersey
Contract: Initial term from 1 September to 27 February
Working pattern: On-site collaboration required; off-island candidates considered where regular travel to Jersey is workable

I'm supporting a large public-sector organisation in Jersey with the appointment of an experienced Senior Project / Programme Delivery Manager to join a significant digital transformation portfolio.

This is broader than a conventional single-project PM role. You will take ownership of delivery across a defined business area, bringing together multiple technology initiatives, internal teams, suppliers and dependencies to ensure priorities remain achievable and outcomes are delivered.

Key Areas of Responsibility:

Owning and maintaining an integrated delivery roadmap and plan
Coordinating multiple projects and technology workstreams
Managing milestones, dependencies, risks, issues and key decisions
Balancing priorities against available resources and delivery capacity
Providing clear governance across scope, budget, resource, quality and progress
Coordinating business teams, technology functions and third-party suppliers
Identifying and removing delivery blockers
Providing clear escalation and reporting to senior stakeholders
Keeping delivery aligned with business and service outcomes
Supporting implementation, operational readiness and transition into BAUKey Skills & Experience Required:

Delivery of complex digital or technology transformation
Responsibility across multiple concurrent projects or workstreams
Strong programme planning, governance and dependency management
RAID, budget, resource and delivery control
Senior stakeholder management
Management of external suppliers and delivery partners
Experience operating across both business and technology teams
Delivery through implementation, go-live and operational transition
Agile, hybrid and/or traditional delivery environmentsExperience within government, public sector or another complex regulated environment would be particularly valuable.

Exposure to Microsoft Dynamics 365 CE/CRM, wider CRM transformation or systems integration would also be advantageous, although this is primarily a senior delivery leadership position rather than a Dynamics specialist role.

Relevant qualifications such as MSP, PRINCE2, PMP, Scrum or equivalent would be beneficial.

Jersey Working:

The programme places significant value on people working alongside the internal project team.

Candidates already based in Jersey are therefore of particular interest, although applications from off-island candidates will also be considered where regular travel and on-site working in Jersey is genuinely achievable.

If you have led complex digital transformation across multiple projects, suppliers and stakeholder groups and are comfortable taking accountability for the wider delivery picture, I'd be interested in speaking with you.
