About the role
Most PMO roles focus on reporting what’s happening.
This role is about helping shape why it’s happening — and whether it’s actually delivering value.
We’re partnering with a large enterprise organisation undergoing significant transformation, and they’re looking for a senior portfolio governance professional to help uplift how investment decisions, prioritisation, governance and value realisation are managed across a broad portfolio of initiatives.
This is not a traditional “process police” PMO role.
They need someone pragmatic, commercially minded and confident operating in ambiguity — someone who can build frameworks that are fit-for-purpose, influence senior stakeholders, and help shift the conversation from:
“Are projects being delivered?”
to
“Are we delivering the right outcomes?”
What you’ll be doing
-
Supporting portfolio-level governance, reporting and prioritisation across a large transformation portfolio
-
Designing and implementing frameworks for:
-
Portfolio governance
-
Value realisation
-
Prioritisation and investment planning
-
Translating delivery activity into meaningful executive insights and business outcomes
-
Preparing reporting and materials for senior governance committees and executive stakeholders
-
Reviewing initiatives and challenging assumptions before funding decisions are made
-
Helping uplift portfolio maturity in a practical, sustainable way
What they’re looking for
-
Strong experience in Portfolio Management / PMO / EPMO environments
-
Experience implementing governance or value realisation frameworks end-to-end
-
Ability to engage and influence stakeholders from PM through to Executive level
-
Strong commercial thinking and strategic mindset
-
Pragmatic approach — someone comfortable working in the grey, not just following textbook governance
The environment
-
Large enterprise transformation landscape
-
Low-to-mid maturity environment with significant opportunity to influence
-
Senior visibility and exposure to executive decision-making
-
Collaborative leader who values thought partnership and initiative
Why this role
This is an opportunity to genuinely shape how portfolio governance and value measurement evolve within a large organisation — not just maintain what already exists.
You’ll have the chance to:
-
Build frameworks from the ground up
-
Influence investment and prioritisation decisions
-
Operate at portfolio and executive level
-
Drive meaningful improvements in how outcomes are measured and communicated
If you’ve worked in enterprise PMO / portfolio environments and enjoy bringing structure, clarity and pragmatism to complex transformation landscapes — this is worth a conversation.
