Programme Manager (Regeneration) - Flexible Working

Spearhead the delivery of a £120m funded project in Oxfordshire as a Programme Manager

Your new company
You will undertake a role working jointly across two local authorities to facilitate the re-opening of a railway line, part of a remit to drive forwards economic opportunity and accelerate growth not only in Oxfordshire, but across the United Kingdom. The reopening of this line and your contributing work will support the sustainable development of new homes and new jobs through an estimated 1,000,000 journeys per year.

Your new role
Working as part of a dedicated team, you will ensure that all strands of work relating to the delivery of this new line and associated infrastructure and public realm work remain on track. You will ensure that the team and all partners have accurate and timely updates on the progress of each programme element, and are alerted where action is required on individual project areas.

• Develop and implement an approach to programme management for the new line.
• Work with project leads to ensure regular updates of highlight reports covering key milestones, risk, RAG status, and budgets.
• Provide a monthly update to the CBL programme panel.
• Lead on programme governance.
• Support the programme director in feeding into wider governance.
• Lead on the delivery of individual project strands as required.

What you'll need to succeed
Knowledge of the rail industry is not an essential requirement for this role. The most important skill set is around a first-class understanding of excellent programme and project management skills. You will be asked to demonstrate this skill-set, and provide relevant examples during the shortlisting and interview phases.

What you'll get in return
You will receive an intal contract with a duration up to 9 months initially, although this could extend beyond this point. In addition, you will receive a daily rate (inside scope of IR35) of between £500 - £600, paid to you on a weekly basis.
