Engage product development leads, investment leads, and Technology partners across the Client Organisation to align planning inputs, agree timelines, and ensure all parties contribute to a consistent planning schedule.
Ensure each technology proposal entering the planning process is substantiated by clear business requirements, defined benefits, identified dependencies, and measurable success criteria before submission to the official investment system of record.
Perform quantitative and qualitative analysis to inform funding prioritisation decisions, and prepare materials that support structured review and challenge sessions with senior leadership.
Monitor the delivery of the approved technology portfolio throughout the year, coordinating monthly reporting forums that surface critical alerts, delivery risks, and issues requiring leadership attention and resolution.
Represent the Client Organisation at central Technology planning forums, participating in working groups on protocol and tooling changes to ensure the Client Organisation's priorities and constraints are reflected in enterprise-level decisions.
Partner with the Organisation PMO team to maintain a two-way link between technology funding decisions and the structuring and governance of Client Organisation-sponsored projects in the project tracking system.
Required Qualifications & Skills
Extended experience in technology programme management or technology business execution within the financial services industry, with a track record of managing complex, multi-stakeholder planning or delivery processes in a global organisation.
Demonstrated ability to coordinate multiple senior stakeholders toward a shared timeline and outcome, maintaining momentum and accountability in high-pressure, fast-moving environments.
Skilled in data analysis and visualisation, with advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel and PowerPoint and hands-on experience building and managing management information dashboards and reporting outputs.
