Drive alignment across multiple stakeholders and ensure smooth programme execution
Identify risks, gaps, and dependencies, and lead mitigation planning

Go-to-Market Execution

Translate strategy into a clear GTM plan including communications, activation, and engagement journeys
Develop execution tools such as playbooks, workback plans, and readiness checkpoints
Coordinate across teams to ensure successful programme launch and sustained momentum

Stakeholder & Partnership Management

Build and manage a stakeholder engagement plan and partnership pipeline
Support collaboration with external agencies to scale programme impact

Measurement & Reporting

Define KPIs, success metrics, and reporting frameworks
Deliver regular leadership updates with insights, risks, and recommendations
Drive continuous improvement using performance data and feedback

Employee Engagement & Communications

Develop and execute internal communications for UK employees
Create reusable communication assets (messaging, FAQs, leader briefs)
Run feedback loops and incorporate insights into programme improvements

Must-Have Skills

Strong programme management experience in complex, multi-stakeholder environments
Experience building strategy and executing large-scale programmes end-to-end
Proven ability to develop and execute Go-to-Market (GTM) plans
Excellent stakeholder management, including senior leadership engagement
