Project manager
*role purpose*
global risk transformation project managers plan, mobilise and direct projects of medium to high complexity and scale from definition to closure. They are typically responsible for the end to end delivery of a single project or workstream of a larger project or programme, proactively balancing scope, schedule, budget, risks, outcomes and benefits. Projects can be standalone or form part of a programme. They are responsible for deploying the global risk transformation project management framework and other global risk transformation business transformation frameworks (btf) within their project. They work closely with programme managers, senior project managers and global portfolio management office to ensure alignment of their project with the wider change portfolio and the group strategy, values and behaviours.
Project managers may support 'small changes' by providing oversight and guidance to multiple smaller initiatives within a priority market.
