Lead Technical Program Manager

We're looking for a Lead Technical Program Manager to coordinate complex technology deliverables that involve multiple teams. You’ll manage a changing portfolio of medium-to-large initiatives, which may run for a year or more, and provide a clear, integrated view of progress, dependencies, risks, decisions and delivery readiness.

You’ll be the main Engineering coordination point for Product and Business stakeholders. Participating teams and their TPMs remain responsible for their own execution, while technical decisions stay with the relevant technical leads.

What you’ll bring

• Significant experience coordinating technical or software delivery across multiple teams.
• A track record of managing complex dependencies, risks and integrated plans or forecasts.
• Experience aligning Product, Business and Engineering stakeholders on outcomes, priorities and trade-offs.
• Experience coordinating integration, end-to-end testing or release readiness.
• Familiarity with Agile or product-oriented delivery and tools such as Jira.
• An understanding of security, control, compliance and audit considerations in a regulated environment.
• Strong communication, facilitation and influencing skills, with the ability to build momentum across teams without relying on formal authority.
• Experience mentoring TPMs or improving delivery practices is desirable.
• Minimum 2.2 degree or international equivalent. Exceptions may apply for current employees where supported.

How the role works

This is a cross-team coordination role, not a day-to-day TPM role embedded in one team. Team TPMs and delivery leads remain accountable for team-level planning and execution. The Lead TPM coordinates the integrated delivery view but does not take on technical design authority, application ownership or direct people-management responsibility unless separately assigned.

Relevant training and on-the-job development will be available. Ongoing development and sharing effective practices with the TPM community are expected.

The Company is committed to diversity and equality of opportunity for all and is opposed to any form of less favourable treatment or harassment on the grounds of race, religion or belief, sex, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, age, sexual orientation, gender reassignment or disability

This position is based in Dunton, and it is expected the successful candidate will be able to attend the Dunton Campus for typically 4 days a week and remain flexible on the days they are required to attend the office according to business requirements.
