What you'll be doing

As Senior Programme Manager, you'll provide strategic leadership for Centrepoint's Big Change Programme, ensuring projects remain aligned to organisational priorities and deliver measurable outcomes.

You'll:

• Lead the planning, delivery and governance of a complex portfolio of transformation projects.
• Manage the programme budget, timeline, risks and resource planning. Ensure there is an appropriate structure for overseeing individual project management of budget and delivery to time.
• Develop and maintain programme reporting for senior leadership, trustees and governance boards.

• Help shape future digital and organisational transformation, identifying opportunities for continuous improvement and innovation.
• Champion collaboration, learning and best practice across project delivery.
• Ensure the BCP is connected to wider change initiatives across Centrepoint.

Why join Centrepoint?

This is a unique opportunity to shape the future of one of the UK's leading charities. You'll join an ambitious organisation committed to improving the lives of young people while helping transform how we operate.

In return for your efforts you'll receive a competitive salary, excellent learning and development opportunities and a fantastic range of benefits including:
