Role Purpose
The Portfolio Director is the owner of portfolio financial health, delivery performance, and scalable growth across Namos’ project delivery estate.
This role is accountable for ensuring that projects are delivered profitably, predictably, and at scale, using data-driven insight to actively manage margin, utilisation, capacity, and commercial risk. The Portfolio Director shapes decisions across prioritisation, resourcing, and intervention to protect project economics while enabling sustainable company growth.
Success in this role is measured not just by delivery outcomes, but by portfolio margin, utilisation effectiveness, forecast accuracy, and the ability to grow without margin degradation.
You will be responsible for growing and developing our expanding team where you will be a key player in the continued growth of the company.
It’s an exciting opportunity to lead the team at a time when we are growing, where you can make a real impact on the business and shape an exciting career ahead of you. You will have a talented team around you to support you, as well as the support of the executive leadership team.
Experience is required in a Project Management or professional services environment at management level. As the Portfolio Director with Namos Solutions you are expected to deliver to consistently high standards, under the Namos ethos; Big enough to deliver, small enough to care.
Note: This role requires a candidate who has previously held a comparable portfolio-level leadership position and is able to step in with minimal ramp-up, confidently owning margin, utilisation, capacity, and portfolio performance from day one.
Requirements
- Proven senior leadership experience in a professional services, consultancy, or systems integrator environment
- Strong track record of owning and improving portfolio financial performance and margin
- Deep understanding of utilisation, capacity planning, and consulting economics
- Demonstrated ability to use data to drive difficult commercial and resourcing decisions
- Experience leading large, multi-project delivery teams
Strong governance and delivery management capability across complex programmes
-
This role is ideal for a senior leader from a consulting, professional services, or systems integrator background who:
- Thinks in portfolio P&L, not just project milestones
- Has a strong grasp of utilisation, capacity planning, and delivery economics
- Is comfortable making data‑led trade‑offs on scope, resourcing, and priorities
- Has led complex delivery portfolios while protecting margin and predictability
- Operates confidently at executive level, influencing strategy and outcomes
Deep delivery experience is essential, but commercial ownership and decision‑making are what define success in this role
