Description
More than a traditional project management role
This is not a conventional project manager position. You will be responsible for helping ensure the quality of the outcome, not simply the completion of tasks, plans, or project documentation.
You will support work from initial definition and discovery through design, mobilisation, execution, transition, adoption, and advantages realisation. You will develop an effective understanding of underlying processes, data, controls, operating model, and enabling technology, and use that insight to partner with colleagues, test assumptions, and shape practical delivery recommendations.
Working across Finance, Technology, and other enterprise functions, working with multidisciplinary teams whose members may not report directly to you. You will create clarity in ambiguous situations, maintain momentum through uncertainty, and provide, balanced advice when the evidence does not support the preferred direction.
Success will be measured by whether initiatives achieve their intended business outcomes and leave behind sustainable processes,



adopted change, stronger capability and the benefits set out from the start.
What you will do
As a Senior Business Project Manager, you will:
- Manage end-to-end delivery of strategic Finance initiatives, from definition and discovery through implementation, transition, and benefits realisation.
- Translate Finance priorities into a clear delivery plan covering outcomes, scope, measures, milestones, resources, dependencies, costs, and decisions.
- Support and co-ordinate structured discovery across process, people, data, controls, technology, customer experience, and operating model, separating evidence from assumptions and inherited practice.
- Analyse root causes, risks, constraints, trade-offs, and opportunities, and prepare concise options, recommendations, business cases, and decision materials to support senior stakeholders.
- Apply the principles of eliminate, simplify, standardise
