Senior PMO - Banking Transformation

About the role

Capco, a global business and technology consultancy for the financial services industry, is looking for an experienced PMO professional with a strong banking or financial services background. The role supports and governs complex transformation programmes across clients' banking domains such as retail banking, private banking, corporate and transaction banking, payments, capital markets, risk and regulatory change. It is client-facing and suits someone who goes beyond PMO administration to help senior stakeholders make informed delivery decisions.

Key responsibilities

• Establish and maintain PMO governance, controls and delivery standards, and coordinate governance forums, steering committees and programme reviews
• Maintain programme-level visibility across scope, milestones, dependencies, resources, risks and delivery outcomes
• Develop and maintain integrated programme and portfolio plans, track milestones and deliverables, and consolidate project information for senior leadership
• Manage programme-level RAID, ensure risks and issues are assessed, owned, tracked and escalated, and maintain change-control processes
• Support financial management (budget tracking, forecasting, variances), resource visibility and business case processes
• Produce executive reporting and insights, monitor KPIs and prepare materials for decision-making
• Build relationships across business, technology, operations, risk, compliance and finance, and engage with senior client stakeholders and programme sponsors

Required profile

• 8+ years of PMO, project or programme management experience in banking or financial services
• Demonstrated experience governing complex transformation programmes, not just administrative PMO work
• Strong banking domain exposure, e.g. retail banking, wealth management, corporate banking, payments, capital markets, risk and regulatory change
• Experience across programme governance, integrated planning, RAID, change control, financial management and executive reporting
• Strong stakeholder management, communication and presentation skills, comfortable in complex, fast-paced, regulated environments

Advantageous experience

• Management consulting, technology consulting or professional services background
• PMP, PRINCE2, MSP, Agile or equivalent certification
• Experience managing PMO teams or geographically distributed delivery teams
