- Ensure compliance with IT&D quality standards and regulatory requirements (GxP) throughout delivery

- Partner with business and IT leadership to align delivery with strategic roadmaps and priorities, as well as manage relationships with executive sponsors and external delivery partners, ensuring successful outcomes

- Lead and support delivery teams, providing guidance, direction, and oversight across programme execution

The experience we're looking for

- Extensive experience leading large-scale, complex digital transformation programmes, ideally within PLM or related domains

- Strong track record of operating in regulated environments (e.g. GxP) and ensuring compliant delivery

- Proven ability to manage programme governance, financials, risks, and dependencies across global, matrixed organisations

- Excellent stakeholder management skills, with experience engaging senior executives and cross-functional teams

- Experience working with external delivery partners and managing complex vendor relationships

The skills for success
