Full job description

The Strategic Projects Manager is responsible for leading and delivering high‑impact, cross‑functional programmes and projects that directly support the organisation’s regional strategic objectives.

A strong leader of people, with broad operations or manufacturing management experience would be ideally suited to this role.

The role operates across functions, regions, or business units, working closely with senior leaders, functional owners, and external partners to ensure disciplined execution, effective governance, and measurable outcomes. With the geographical scope of the role will come a requirement to travel internationally and manage projects when they require such attention.

Develop and maintain business cases, project charters, and investment justifications.
Establish appropriate governance structures, including steering committees, escalation pathways, and decision gates.
Monitor progress, risks, dependencies, and benefits realisation; intervene where required to protect outcomes.
Engage senior stakeholders and functional leaders to align expectations, secure resources, and drive accountability.
Manage project budgets, schedules, and resource plans to ensure efficient use of capital and people.
Track financial performance, savings, cost avoidance, and ROI against approved business cases.

Strategic thinking and systems perspective.
Strong execution discipline and prioritisation.
Stakeholder influence without direct authority.
Data‑driven decision‑making and problem solving.
Clear, executive‑level communication.
Comfort working with ambiguity and change.
