Job Description

About the Role We are seeking a strategic and visionary Portfolio Management Lead (PMO) to lead our project landscape for a premier insurance client. Moving beyond traditional PMO execution, you will be responsible for the strategic alignment of the entire project portfolio with the organization's long-term business goals. Key Responsibilities • Strategic Portfolio Alignment: Partner with executive leadership to define the portfolio strategy. Prioritize initiatives based on ROI, strategic fit, and risk profile to ensure the business is "doing the right things," not just "doing things right." • Executive Leadership & Influence: Act as the primary liaison between the delivery teams and the Executive Committee. You will facilitate portfolio steering committees and provide the high-level narrative for business performance and transformation. • Team Leadership & Capability Building: Lead, recruit, and mentor a team of PMO Managers and Analysts. Foster a center of excellence (CoE) culture, driving professional development and setting the standard for project leadership across the firm. • Resource & Capacity Optimization: Oversee enterprise-wide resource planning. Identify bottlenecks and cross-functional dependencies to ensure the portfolio is realistic and achievable within budget constraints. • Investment & Value Realization: Establish frameworks to measure the actual business value realized from completed projects. Shift the focus from "on-time/on-budget" to "benefit delivery and strategic impact." • Enterprise Risk Management: Oversee the aggregated risk profile of the entire portfolio, identifying systemic issues that could impact the organization's overall transformation roadmap.
