Build the PMO function from scratch for a growing IT Consultancy…

Head of PMO | £80–90k + profit share | Hybrid, Brentwood, Essex

Your new organisation…

This organisation is an award-winning managed service provider that plans to double in size over the next three years. As a 25-year-old, independent, people-first business, it’s known for exceptional customer service and for being a great place to work. It consistently ranks among the UK’s best mid-sized companies to work for.

Projects are now central to that growth and the business is creating a brand new Head of PMO role: a senior leader to shape how it plans, governs and delivers projects at scale.

Your new role…

This is a leadership and strategy role, not a hands-on delivery seat. You’ll join the senior management team, report to the Service Director, and own the vision and standards for project delivery across the business. You will:

• Build the function – define the PMO’s strategy, structure and ways of working.
• Create governance frameworks and standards that fit the work coming in.
• Manage a small, capable team of PMs and Coordinators and coach and develop them.
• Act as the credible trusted voice to both internal stakeholders and external customers.

What you’ll bring…

We are looking for an experienced PMO leader who can build functions, processes and who is eager to improve the way a business delivers its projects. You’ll bring:

• Experience of building or transforming a PMO or project function.
• Background in an MSP, IT Services/Consultancy or similar technology delivery business.
• Leadership and mentoring experience.
• The practical mindset to build things from the ground up.

What’s in it for you…

Salary for this role is £80,000 – 90,000 basic and there are some excellent benefits on top of that, including a profit share, private healthcare, death in service insurance, pension and lots more.

It is a hybrid position with 3 days a week on site at their office near Brentwood and 2 days from home.
