Head of PMO
Newmarket
Are you an experienced Project Manager practiced in developing products as well as managing people? If so, this is one of those roles where you can genuinely shape how a business delivers.
Not just managing projects, but building the structure, governance and ways of working that ensure complex product development programmes progress successfully.
You will be joining a business that genuinely values its culture. It is collaborative, people-focused and expects individuals to take ownership, bring ideas and work together to solve problems, not just follow process.
This role sits right at the centre of the organisation, working across multiple teams to ensure projects move forward with clarity, pace and control within a regulated environment.
If you enjoy building, improving and leading rather than maintaining the status quo, this is a role where you can make a real impact.
What you will be doing:
- Leading and developing the Project Management function, ensuring it is structured, effective and aligned to business objectives
- Owning and embedding project governance frameworks across the organisation
- Taking full responsibility for Design Control processes, ensuring compliance throughout the product lifecycle
- Driving delivery of multiple complex product development projects, ensuring they are delivered on time, within scope and aligned to commercial and technical goals
- Working cross-functionally with teams across R&D, operations, quality, regulatory and commercial functions
- Identifying risks early and implementing clear mitigation strategies
- Providing clear, structured updates to senior stakeholders on project performance, risks and priorities
- Continuously improving project delivery through better processes, tools and ways of working
What we need from you:
- Strong project management experience delivering complex programmes end-to-end
- Proven experience leading and developing teams
- Experience working within a regulated environment such as ISO13485
- Comfortable operating at both a strategic and hands-on level
- Confident engaging with stakeholders across technical and non-technical teams
- Someone who brings structure, clarity and momentum, not just oversight
What can you expect in return:
- Salary in the region of £45,000 - £55,000, dependent on experience
- Excellent benefits package
