Our client, a major Investment Bank, is seeking a PMO/Risk Program Manager Lead who will report directly to the PMO Head and Portfolio Manager for Enterprise Risk. This role is crucial for ensuring the overall health of Risk IT programs. As a Program Manager Lead within the PMO, the candidate will be responsible for defining, designing, implementing, and managing ongoing production of Program and Project tracking and reporting capabilities. This support is essential for the PMO and application delivery teams to adhere to corporate program and project governance standards. Familiarity with various software development lifecycle (SDLC) methodologies, including Waterfall and Agile, is a prerequisite for this position. The candidate must also be well-versed in enterprise tools used to track large initiatives and programs. In this management support role, the candidate will interpret and disseminate project information, own processes, improve processes, and establish best practices within the PMO. The role will involve developing a suite of proactive reporting, visualization, and communication strategies that leverage data from multiple complex enterprise project management tools. This will enable the PMO and senior technology managers to assess the overall health of their initiatives and identify areas requiring remediation. Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) will be defined and agreed upon, with monitoring implemented to ensure adherence to governance milestones. The ideal candidate will have 5-7 years of experience working within a PMO or technology delivery function, with a strong background in organizing, analyzing, and visualizing enterprise data to facilitate data-driven decision-making. While experience in a PMO context is preferred, demonstrable capability in other domains will also be considered. Additionally, having 3+ years of financial services experience in Enterprise Risk or Finance will be a significant advantage.
