Programme Director-Credit Risk Change recruitment
My client is looking for a Senior Programme Manager/Director to provide support to the Global Head of Credit Risk Change. The role requires a certain level of gravitas to face off to and influence a broad range of senior stakeholders (CxO, MD, Board Level) both in the business, change and technology.
Due to the mission critical nature of the programmes in flight it is critical that the incumbent has an impeccable delivery track record for large scale, complex transformation programmes ideally within the Front Office fo the Investment Bank, an ideal background would be a COO/Business Manager. Due to the portfolio of projects being focused on a number of key strategic initiatives driven by the front office (CVA/EPE) and also where the lions share of programme investment is focused - a front office background is preferred to pure Credit Risk.
The role will require the incumbent to deputise in steering committees and in scenarios where the Global Head is not available, so in essence it is a combination of a No.2 type responsibility aligned to owning the programme delivery and PMO. So strong financials in terms of owning budgets and planning will be essential, as will strong people management and influencing skills with the stakeholder community. This will entail both change and technology delivery streams so candidates will need to have experience delivering the full e2e project lifecycle
