Project Lead - Transformation & Change

???? Birmingham (Hybrid)
???? £60,000 - £65,000 + benefits

We're working with a leading UK professional services organisation undergoing a significant period of strategic transformation. As part of this journey, they're looking to hire a Project Lead to join a central transformation and innovation function responsible for delivering change.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone looking to step beyond traditional project delivery and play a key role in shaping how a complex organisation evolves over the coming years.

The Role

You'll be responsible for delivering a range of cross-functional, business-critical projects, working closely with senior stakeholders across the organisation.

This isn't a pure IT delivery role - it's about driving meaningful business change, improving processes, and helping teams prioritise and execute on their transformation roadmap.

You'll:

Lead end-to-end delivery of strategic change initiatives
Work with senior stakeholders to define scope, priorities and outcomes
Manage project plans, risks, budgets and governance
Support the development of project management best practice across the organisation
Collaborate with technology and operational teams to embed change effectively
Provide guidance and coaching to colleagues running their own projects

What We're Looking For:

We're looking for someone with a strong foundation in project delivery who is ready to step into a more strategic, business-facing role.

You'll likely have:

Experience delivering projects in a professional services or legal environment
Exposure to business change / transformation initiatives
Strong stakeholder management and communication skills
The ability to work in ambiguous, fast-moving environments
A structured approach to delivery (Prince2, Agile, APM or similar)

Why Apply?

Opportunity to work on high-impact, organisation-wide change programmes
Exposure to senior stakeholders and strategic decision-making
A collaborative and forward-thinking environment focused on continuous improvement
Clear scope for career development within transformation and change
Flexible, hybrid working model
