## Description

Are you an experienced programme leader who can bring structure, pace and confidence to complex organisational change?

London Borough of Redbridge Council is delivering an ambitious Modernisation Programme to help shape the future of the organisation.

- Lead multidisciplinary delivery teams, including project managers, project officers, business analysts and service colleagues.

- Support services to identify opportunities for improvement, innovation and better ways of working.

- Ensure programmes are delivered to agreed timescales, quality standards and strategic objectives.

**About You**

You will have significant experience of leading complex programmes in a large organisation, with strong governance, stakeholder management and delivery skills.

You will be confident working with senior leaders, managing competing priorities and bringing people together to deliver shared outcomes. You will be organised, resilient and able to translate complex challenges into clear plans and practical delivery.

**You will also bring:**

- Strong programme management experience from initiation through to delivery.

- Excellent communication, influencing and presentation skills.

- Experience managing risks, issues, dependencies, benefits and reporting.
