They’re now looking for a PMO/Project Lead to step into a high-impact role, working across Engineering, Operations, Security, and client delivery.

• Setting up governance, reporting, and delivery standards
• Coordinating complex initiatives across multiple teams
• Leading ISO27001 readiness and audit delivery
• Driving process improvements and operational efficiency

Experience needed for the opportunity:

• Strong experience delivering projects in a tech or software environment
• Background in PMO / portfolio management / governance
• Comfortable working with engineering teams (Linux / Java / DevOps exposure ideal)
• Experience with PRINCE2 + Agile delivery frameworks
• Strong stakeholder management across technical and non-technical teams
• Exposure to ISO27001 / security / compliance programmes is a big plus
• Experience in financial services / trading technology would be highly desirable

Whats on offer:

• Remote first environment (globally distributed team)
• High ownership and autonomy
• Opportunity to shape delivery in a growing, specialist business
• Work on genuinely high-impact, technically complex systems
• Excellent remuneration

If you’re someone who enjoys bringing structure to ambiguity and wants to operate in a high performance environment, this is worth a conversation.
