This project focuses on assessing and enhancing the client’s PMO and governance capabilities within a complex, multi-project environment. The engagement aims to identify structural gaps in portfolio prioritisation, accountability, and delivery performance, and to define a clear path toward a more value-driven delivery model. Through a structured diagnostic, the team will deliver evidence-based insights and actionable recommendations. The outcome is a practical transformation roadmap aligned with the client’s strategic objectives.
You will join a small, senior team acting as a centre of expertise for identity and integration. The team is responsible for setting standards, reviewing solution designs and providing guidance to delivery teams rather than doing only operational support. You will collaborate with architects, security and product teams, and occasionally with external partners, to ensure that new and ongoing initiatives align with the organisation’s cloud and identity strategy.

Identify gaps, inefficiencies, and risks across the delivery lifecycle, particularly in hybrid (waterfall-agile) environments.
Evaluate vendor interactions and execution models, highlighting misalignments, dependencies, and areas of risk.
Assess the effectiveness of quality gates, testing strategies, and defect management practices.
Analyse role coverage across delivery teams, identifying missing capabilities or misaligned responsibilities.
Conduct stakeholder interviews with project managers, business owners, vendors, and QA teams to gather insights.
Review delivery artefacts, including process documentation, sprint outputs, test plans, and release records.
Develop structured, evidence-based findings and contribute to capability assessments (e.g., heat maps, gap analysis).

Support the development of targeted recommendations to improve delivery performance, quality, and accountability.
