CPCA - Head of PMO

Cambridgeshire & Peterborough Combined Authority (CPCA) was established in March 2017 as a result of powers being devolved to it by Central Government most particularly in regard to securing major developments and improvements in respect of Transport, Housing, Education and Skills across the region with a vision to make Cambridgeshire and Peterborough the leading place in the world to learn, live and work. CPCA is made up of the leaders of the County, Unitary and District councils of the area, together with representatives of the NHS, Police and Fire authorities. We are seeking an individual with demonstrable experience in a PMO management role, with a track record of implementing PMO processes across a large, complex organisation. Experience of working across programmes (Business, Education, Public Services, Transport, Housing) comparable to those found at the Combined Authority would be advantageous. The role calls for an individual with excellent interpersonal and leadership skills, with the ability to proactively and collaboratively engage with a diverse range of colleagues and stakeholders. 71 projects were identified as part of the Devolution Deal, to deliver a growth target over a twenty- five-year period. As of the end of 2020, 72% of those projects (51) have been implemented fully or in part. About 40 projects are currently live. The Authority’s agreed capital programme for 2021-22 is worth over £100 million. The role offers an individual the opportunity to take up a high-profile role that will play a key part in the realisation of a variety of transformative projects and programmes that will bring a tremendous social and economic benefit to the region.
