Description

A Global Charity located in Reading is seeking a Programme & Delivery Manager for Digital, Data & Technology (DDaT) to be part of their team on a permanent basis with hybrid working.

Due to advances in technology, they are expanding their digital systems teams with this newly created role - DDaT Programme & Delivery Manager.

They are an international not-for-profit organisation working to improve education outcomes around the world. They seek to improve education and transitions into work through expert research on what works. Their experts deliver highly contextualised programmes designed to transform education systems, schools and lives.
Their vision is a world in which all lives are transformed through excellent education. They strive to change education for good, grounding their work in research and evidence.

They support leaders to raise standards, improve school performance, develop great teachers and open career pathways – transforming lives and futures in contexts as diverse as Brunei, Kenya, England, Rwanda and Dubai.

They combine global research and their longstanding expertise with regional knowledge to inform education policy and practice and deliver programmes around the world.

Through their work and expertise – which spans from early years education right through to post-school careers – they seek to strengthen education systems, transform teaching and learning, ensure effective transitions into work, and contribute to sustainable global responses to key education challenges.

The post-holder will establish a new Programme and Delivery department containing the resources required to manage the delivery of new systems and system improvements for the organisation.

Facilitate communication between project stakeholders and workstreams – including managing dependencies, monitoring progress, and chairing effective meetings.
Assist in the definition of project scope and objectives, involving all relevant stakeholders and ensuring technical feasibility.

Provide leadership to the project and workstream teams – including providing clarity of responsibilities, objectives & deliverables, maintaining focus according to the project vision, and providing the environment to enable project success.

Drive project planning and forecasting, and alignment with project timelines and constraints; working with a portfolio of stakeholders and Project Managers to ensure that milestone plans and resource plans are maintained and up to date.

Influence and manage stakeholder relationships, to ensure projects get delivered to time, cost and scope.

Maintain effective financial and project progress reporting, ensuring frequent revenue and cost tracking of customer requirements, with regular analysis as appropriate.

Supporting project governance – ensure that either personally or a Project Manager prepares all relevant documentation, ensuring that each project fulfils weekly and monthly reporting, decision logging, and budget tracking.

Quality assurance - ensure projects satisfy quality assurance controls and gateways, both internal and external.

Prepare and submit regular project progress reports, e.g., current project status, budget and resource tracking, to agreed governance forums.

Work with the Programme Management Office and business change colleagues to create and maintain management governance frameworks.

At project closure ensure that project documentation is complete, and that lessons learned can be applied to future projects.

Best practice:
