Job Description

⭐ Programme Planning Lead

London (1–2 days per week) + Home

Permanent | Full‑time

£67,000 – £77,000 + bonus + benefits

Are you a strategic, hands‑on planner who thrives in complex environments? Excited by the chance to build something from the ground up? Want to shape how an organisation plans, tracks, and delivers its biggest change and transformation initiatives?

If so — this is your role.

We’re looking for a Planning Lead to join our enterprise PMO and help us create a modern, effective planning capability that brings clarity, structure, and direction across a diverse change portfolio.

This isn’t a role where you inherit established processes.

This is a role where you create them.

What you’ll lead

As our Planning Lead, you will:

✅ Design and embed planning frameworks and standards across the enterprise PMO

✅ Build integrated plans across complex change and transformation activity

✅ Partner with senior leaders, programme managers, and business owners

✅ Track and report on both formal programme delivery and business-led initiatives

✅ Identify interdependencies, risks, and critical paths across the portfolio

✅ Bring structure to ambiguity and influence decision-making at senior levels

What makes you great

You’ll bring:

  • 5+ years’ experience in complex planning roles (ideally in multiple organisations)
  • Strong background in enterprise, portfolio or strategic planning
  • Experience across change & transformation environments
  • Solid command of planning tools, methodologies, and integrated planning approaches
  • Confidence presenting to senior leadership
  • A proactive, “do the do” mindset — shaping direction, not just delivering tasks
  • Comfort operating where things aren’t fully defined yet

Why join us?

You’ll be part of a supportive team, a modern PMO, and an organisation undergoing meaningful transformation. If you want a role where your impact is visible — and you get to shape how planning works at enterprise level — this is your moment to work for one of the top loyalty and rewards businesses out there.
