Who We Are Looking For
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Project Manager – Capital Delivery to join the Programme and Performance team. Working closely with the Programme and Performance Manager and wider colleagues across Capital Delivery, you will play a key role in defining and delivering business transformation initiatives that drive continuous improvement, productivity and best value.
You will lead projects end‑to‑end, from business case development through to delivery, embedding and benefits realisation. This role is central to shaping future ways of working, supporting data‑led decision making and ensuring change is not only delivered, but fully adopted into business as usual.
We’re looking for someone who is collaborative, trusted and values‑led — a team player who does the right thing, works openly with others and helps create an environment where people feel supported to deliver their best.
