Full job description

Our Mission

At Vertical Aerospace, we are pioneering the way for electric aviation. The Valo, our eVTOL (electric, vertical, take-off and landing), 'zero emissions' aircraft will set a new safety standard for how we will navigate the sky.

We won't realise our mission following the same legacy processes and traditions our predecessors followed, instead, we want to 'redefine' aerospace best practices. We are growing quickly from a prototype business to a scaling SME, and the next few years will be critical to our success and delivering on our ambitious goals. Valo is targeting airliner-level safety certification in 2028 ahead of entering service with our airline and operator customers.

What to expect

You’ll be joining a programme-oriented organisation where delivery credibility is key.

Our environment is complex and fast-paced, spanning product development, supply chain, manufacturing, certification, people, finance, and digital. This role sits at the heart of that system, bringing structure, clarity, and discipline to how we deliver.

You will have high levels of executive visibility and work directly with senior decision-makers, playing a central role in shaping how the programme evolves as we scale.

What you’ll do

Lead the development of a scalable PMO aligned to organisational growth
Own the integrated delivery system across all functions, ensuring alignment to programme outcomes
Maintain a single, authoritative Integrated Master Schedule with a clear critical path
Embed governance frameworks, including forums, escalation routes, decision rights, and prioritisation mechanisms
Deliver consistent, decision-ready reporting to executive leadership
Establish performance management disciplines (KPIs, RAG status, variance analysis, forward risk visibility)
Develop programme control mechanisms to support the next phase of organisational scale-up
Manage structured approaches to dependency management, sequencing, and trade-off decision-making
Build and lead a high-performing PMO team across planning, controls, risk, reporting, and governance
Deliver programme management training and capability development across the organisation
Ensure programme data integrity, reporting accuracy, and alignment with regulatory requirements

What you’ll bring

Experience establishing or significantly evolving a PMO in a complex, high-growth, capital-intensive environment
Proven track record of delivering complex, integrated programmes using structured programme management and influence
Strong expertise in planning and controls, including Integrated Master Scheduling and critical path management
Strong understanding of governance, performance management, and delivery assurance frameworks
Ability to influence across functions and operate effectively at all levels of the organisation
Evidence of improving delivery outcomes in complex or scaling environments
A direct, outcome-focused approach with a strong bias for action

What can you expect from us?

We're on a mission. Where others see limits, we see opportunity, and we work at pace. Working at Vertical isn't your average role but for those seeking a challenge, a flexible, supportive organisation and an incredible team; working here is an opportunity to do the best work of your career.

Our approach promotes ingenuity and courage, while our environment builds success through diligence in safety and being open in the way we work. The only way we're going to assure the next chapter of aviation history is by working as a team, relentlessly, towards our goal.

Our benefits

Our people matter - we're not going anywhere without them. Which is why our company benefits go beyond the essentials.

26 days holiday, plus bank holiday
5 extra days per year to buy (or sell)
5 extra days holiday when you get married or enter a civil partnership
Additional 4% of your salary to spend on extra benefits
Award-winning digital health and wellbeing service (Help@Hand)
Company performance based bonus - rewarding company and individual performance
Company Share Scheme - open to every Vertical employee
Company Pension Scheme - 5% and we match it
Breakfast on us, every day

We may just be the hardest job you've ever had, but we're confident it will be the most rewarding. Join the team today and help us shape the future of Advanced Air Mobility.
