Hybrid 3 days a week in the office
£90,000 – £98,000
Project Manager – Strategy & Transformation – Commercial – PMO – Consulting – FMCG
Ready to drive strategic transformation in one of the world’s leading FMCG businesses?
We’re looking for an exceptional Project Manager to join a high-profile Strategy & Transformation team, supporting the delivery of a major UK business strategy. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who thrives in fast-paced, commercially driven environments and enjoys working with senior leaders to turn strategy into action.
This isn’t a traditional PM role. We’re looking for someone with a consulting or transformation background who can think strategically, bring structure to complexity, and keep multiple workstreams moving at pace. You’ll be equally comfortable building robust Excel models as you are influencing Executive stakeholders and challenging the status quo.
What you’ll be doing:
- Lead PMO governance across key strategic programmes, ensuring delivery stays on track, on time and aligned to business priorities.
- Partner with Executive and Senior Leadership teams to prepare governance packs, steering materials and decision papers.
- Build and maintain project plans, RAID logs, action trackers, dashboards and commercial Excel models.
- Translate complex data and multiple stakeholder inputs into clear, concise insights that support decision making.
- Proactively identify risks, dependencies and blockers, driving pragmatic solutions to keep delivery moving.
- Build trusted relationships across functions, bringing people together to achieve common goals.
- Support strategic initiatives from planning through to execution, rolling up your sleeves whenever needed.
We’re looking for someone who:
- Has a strong background in Project Management, Strategy, Transformation, PMO or Management Consulting.
- Is a strategic thinker with outstanding organisational skills and exceptional attention to detail.
- Has significant commercial exposure, understands business strategy and can confidently navigate complex organisations.
- Is highly proficient in Excel, with experience building models, trackers, dashboards and analysing commercial data.
Experience that would make you stand out:
- FMCG, consumer goods, retail or another fast-paced commercial environment.
- Consulting, Transformation Office, PMO or Chief of Staff experience.
- PRINCE2, PMP, Agile or similar project management qualifications.
Why this role?
You’ll gain exposure across the entire business, work alongside senior executives, and play a pivotal role in shaping and delivering strategic priorities. If you’re commercially minded, highly organised, and enjoy bringing clarity, pace and structure to complex transformation programmes, we’d love to hear from you.
