Our work has positively influenced the lives of over 40 million UK citizens.\nWe are passionate about user-centred design, agile delivery, and building digital services that make a real difference. Our teams work at the forefront of innovation, helping organisations transform and deliver high-quality, scalable solutions that truly matter.\nOverview\nWe're looking for a PMO Lead to join us, working across our UK government clients to put planning, reporting and delivery tooling in place that teams actually use.\nYou'll work closely with clients to define how work is planned and reported across a portfolio of delivery teams: choosing and configuring the tools, designing the ways of working that sit around them, and coaching delivery people to follow a consistent approach. This is a hands-on role for someone who puts something workable in place, monitors how well it performs, and improves it.\nKey Responsibilities\nOwn planning and reporting standards across a portfolio of delivery teams, from how work is broken down and estimated to how progress is reported to senior stakeholders.\n\nSet up and configure delivery tooling, including Microsoft Planner, so it fits how teams actually work rather than bending teams around the tool.\n\nDefine and support the development of Power BI reporting that gives delivery leads, senior stakeholders and clients one trustworthy view of progress, risks, dependencies and resources.\n\nAssess whether existing tools and processes are fit for purpose, and make the case to keep, change or retire them.\n\nDesign repeatable ways of working, document them so they can be adopted without you being present, and refine them based on where teams get stuck.\n\nMentor and coach delivery managers, project managers and PMO colleagues so a consistent approach is adopted without needing to be policed.\n\nRun the planning rhythm across the portfolio, including planning sessions, milestone tracking, dependency management and the associated reporting cycle.\n\nKeep the underlying data trustworthy by addressing gaps and inconsistencies that could make reports misleading.\n\nWork with programme and portfolio leadership to ensure team-level plans roll up into a coherent picture, and that the information leadership requires can realistically be captured at team level.\n\nRequired Skills and Experience\nProven experience setting up and running PMO planning and reporting across multiple delivery teams.\n\nHands-on experience configuring work management tools for real delivery teams, including Microsoft Planner or equivalent tools.\n\nStrong Power BI skills, including defining and developing reports and dashboards using complex or inconsistent delivery data.\n\nExperience assessing whether tools and processes are fit for purpose, and leading the resulting changes.\n\nExperience designing repeatable ways of working and documenting them clearly enough for others to follow.\n\nExperience mentoring or coaching delivery staff to adopt a consistent approach, rather than relying on process enforcement.\n\nA programme or project management background, with an understanding of how task-level detail rolls up into a programme view and what leadership needs from it.\n\nComfort with an iterative approach: putting something workable in place quickly and then improving it, rather than waiting to design the perfect process.\n\nAbility to explain a plan or report to any audience, from a delivery team to a senior stakeholder.\n\nDesirable\nPublic sector or central government programme experience.\n\nExperience with the wider Microsoft stack, such as Power Automate, SharePoint, Power Apps or Azure DevOps.\n\nExperience building and maintaining Power BI reports.\n\nData modelling or DAX skills beyond standard Power BI reporting.\n\nExperience with portfolio-level resource and capacity planning.\n\nFamiliarity with recognised delivery frameworks such as Agile, MSP or PRINCE2.\n\nOur Commitment to Diversity & Inclusion\nAt Scrumconnect Consulting, we believe thatdiversity drives innovation. We are committed to creating an inclusive environment where everyone is respected, valued, and supported. We actively encourage applications fromwomen, people with disabilities, individuals from under-represented communities, and those seekingflexible working arrangements.\nAs aDisability Confident Level 1 employer, we provide reasonable adjustments throughout the recruitment process and employment to ensure equal opportunity for all.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4630,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Flexible schedule"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Professional Services","Travel & Tourism","E-learning"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-20T13:00:11Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"GB","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"Licensed UK visa sponsor (Skilled Worker)","filings_12m":null,"filings_prev_12m":null,"green_card_filings_12m":null,"median_offered_wage_usd":null,"route":"Skilled Worker","cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-21T06:25:45+00:00","sources":["UK Home Office: register of licensed sponsors (workers)"],"filings_for_role_12m":0}],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":0,"expected_fill_days":30,"reasons":["conf:1","velocity","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-10-21T05:46:15Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/scrumconnect-pmo-lead","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/scrumconnect-pmo-lead.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-21T17:11:30Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":24214,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-22T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":3861039},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=3861039"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fscrumconnect-pmo-lead"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fscrumconnect-pmo-lead"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fscrumconnect-pmo-lead"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/scrumconnect-pmo-lead\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fscrumconnect-pmo-lead"}]}
