PMO Lead
G MASS Consulting is seeking an experienced Interim PMO Lead for a leading fintech company, to bring structure to an existing but underdeveloped PMO function. This is not a greenfield build, the foundations are there, but they need an experienced hand to critique the current setup, establish the right operating cadence and drive meaningful change.
The role spans the entire business and covers a number of strategic projects, sitting at the heart of the organisation during a period of significant transformation.
This is an interim engagement with a clear remit: assess what exists and build the right foundations. The role spans the entire business and sits at the centre of the client's strategic delivery agenda.
Hybrid working with three days per week at their London office.
What you'll do:
Assess and critique the current PMO setup with fresh, experienced eyes
Establish and embed a robust governance framework and operating cadence
Run and chair key programme and steering meetings
Challenge existing approaches constructively where needed
Navigate a complex, change-heavy environment with confidence and credibility
Manage senior stakeholders effectively, including C-suite and board-level personalities
Define and document the target operating model in preparation for a permanent handover
Lead prioritisation across a broad portfolio of concurrent strategic initiatives, including major technology infrastructure work spanning stability and resilience improvements, revenue-generating platform development, and risk reduction
Oversee the management of an office closure, handling significant associated risk exposure
Drive delivery of new AI-embedded products, with a focus on moving beyond proof of concept - assessing real-world AI experience, technology integration, and broader organisational impact
Requirements
A seasoned PMO professional with a strong track record of building or significantly improving PMO functions
Comfortable operating across an entire organisation, spanning numerous strategic projects simultaneously
Experienced in financial services, fintech or similarly regulated, fast-moving environments
Proven ability to build and apply prioritisation frameworks for resource allocation across competing initiatives
Familiar with technology-led transformation, including infrastructure programmes and AI-driven product delivery
Available to start late June / early July 2025
Benefits
Salary: up to £90,000
Length: initial 4 months contract
