What will you do?
As a Project or Programme Manager, you lead cross-functional teams across the full lifecycle of (strategic) data projects. You define and track deliverables, milestones, mitigate risks, coordinate internal and external teams, and serve as the go-to person for decision-making. You are able to refer back to strategic plans and adjust course where needed. With your deep understanding of the data landscape, you ensure strategic alignment and delivery of solutions that make an impact. All the while, you keep your stakeholders aligned and engaged.
Among your responsibilities will be the following:
- Manage and deliver complex data initiatives, such as the roll out of a data strategy, new data platform builds, BI/reporting programmes, or data governance programmes.
- Align with stakeholders in multiple levels of the organization to translate vision into clear deliverables over time.
- Lead multi-disciplinary teams toward successful delivery.
- Define and manage clear goals, deliverables, scope, timelines, and budget.
- Identify and mitigate project risks and dependencies, and potential future technical debt.
- Ensure strategic alignment between data initiatives and business objectives.
- Support Agile and hybrid ways of working, adapting delivery to fit the client environment.
- Communicate progress to stakeholders at all levels – from sprint reviews to steering committees.
- Support change management and adoption of data solutions within the organisation.
- Help develop Valcon’s internal frameworks, standards, best practices and solutions.
- Be an active contributor to the Valcon project and programme management community.
