Company Description

We’re changing it up

We’re on a mission to build the UK’s finest digital infrastructure and unleash Britain’s potential. Together, we’re achieving incredible things. We may have big ambitions, but we never lose sight of what matters. That’s why we’ve created an open, inclusive environment where people can be themselves, where wellbeing and mental health come first, where we take a flexible approach to working, and where everyone has the chance to pursue their passions, keep learning and grow their careers. We’re changing up Britain and we’re changing up the workplace with better rewards, more opportunities to grow and the chance to make a difference to communities across the UK.

A rewarding career

We’re passionate about our work and we’re passionate about our people too.

How can you change it up?

You will lead, facilitate and assure successful onboarding and initiation across CityFibre. You will be responsible for ensuring project requirements, scope, benefits, and uncertainty are clearly defined and documented before a project commences. You will work closely with the commercial teams, acting as the single point of contact for the PMO to ensure the right people have the right information at the right time. In addition to this, you will support the preparation of material for Board meetings as well as communicate the outcome from this and other executive meetings to the rest of the company. 

Some of your other responsibilities will include:

  • Overseeing project budgets, roles/responsibilities, schedules, and timelines
  • Providing feedback to product management teams for product features and enhancements
  • Keeping all owned administrative tasks up to date to maintain accurate visibility for all stakeholders and coaching the wider teams to do the same

What will you bring to the role? 

We are looking for a candidate who has extensive experience in project/programme management and owns a professional qualification such as APM. In addition to this, you must have a Six Sigma green belt qualification as a minimum, demonstrating that you have expertise in quantifying and analysing early uncertainty or risk at the project feasibility stage. 

In addition to this, it will be beneficial to have: 

  • A degree in a relevant field or equivalent professional qualification
  • Experience in strategic influencing and negotiation 
  • Stakeholder management skills
  • The ability to analyse data and provide business intelligence to report KPIs and performance insights
