PMO Lead – PPM Tool Implementation
Contract | 6 months initially | £500/day outside IR35 | ASAP start
A UK insurance-sector organisation is putting in a new PPM platform and needs a PMO Lead to own it.

Some hands-on project management will be needed alongside the PMO work.
What you’ll be doing
- Leading the PMO through the PPM tool rollout: setting it up, migrating data across and getting people using it
- Setting governance, reporting standards and portfolio dashboards
- Owning portfolio reporting for senior governance forums
- Tracking resources, capacity and project finances across the portfolio
- Supporting project managers and training them in the new tool and processes
- Running smaller projects or workstreams yourself where needed
What you’ll need
- A strong PMO lead background in governance, portfolio reporting, RAID and financial tracking
- Experience implementing or integrating a PPM tool (e.g. Planview, Clarity, ServiceNow SPM, Project Online, Fluid). Fluid experience would be a bonus.
- Some project management experience
- Confidence working with senior stakeholders
Nice to have
- Financial services or insurance background
- PRINCE2, MSP or P3O
