We’re partnering with an established technology consulting business looking for an experienced Project Management Practice Lead to lead and grow its project delivery capability.

This is not a purely operational or people leadership role. You’ll oversee a practice of approximately 40 consultants, while remaining highly client-facing and deployable across complex digital and technology transformation engagements.

Around 70% of your time will be client-facing, working across areas such as major program delivery, PMO advisory, governance uplift and project recovery. The remainder will focus on building the practice: developing capability, lifting delivery standards, supporting your team and helping grow existing and new client relationships.

You’ll be responsible for:

- Leading and developing a consulting practice of approximately 40 Project and Program Management professionals
- Remaining hands-on across complex digital and technology transformation programs
- Providing Program Management, PMO advisory, governance and project recovery expertise to clients
- Building capability across the practice through coaching, development and performance management
- Driving quality and consistency across client engagements
- Supporting workforce planning, budgets and utilisation




- Building trusted relationships with senior client stakeholders
- Identifying opportunities to grow existing accounts and win new clients
- Continuing to evolve the practice as the business grows

You’ll ideally bring:

- Significant Project and Program Management experience within consulting or professional services
- A strong track record delivering complex digital and technology transformation programs
- Experience leading and developing consulting or delivery teams
- Robust PMO, governance, assurance and/or project recovery capability
- The ability and appetite to remain hands-on and deployable with clients
- Commercial experience contributing to account growth, proposals or new business
- Experience working across multiple industries or client environments
- Strong executive stakeholder management and consulting skills

This would suit an experienced Practice Lead, Consulting Director, Delivery Director, Program Director or Principal who enjoys building high-performing teams but doesn’t want to move away from delivery.

You’ll be joining a business looking to genuinely grow the capability, so we’re looking for someone with the energy and appetite to shape the practice rather than simply maintain what’s already there.
