For almost two decades, Cornerstone’s infrastructure has quietly supported the UK’s mobile networks.

We're looking for a highly organised and driven Demand Governance & Partner Performance

Manager to play a critical role in ensuring governance excellence across our demand management and supplier performance activities. Working across multiple programmes and stakeholders, you'll provide the oversight, structure and accountability needed to keep key initiatives moving forward, ensuring decisions are documented, actions are delivered, and governance processes remain robust and auditable.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment and enjoys bringing order, control and continuous improvement to complex operational programmes.

Why This Role Matters

Strong governance is at the heart of successful delivery. This role ensures that key business decisions are transparent, traceable, and effectively executed across both internal teams and external partners.

You'll help drive accountability across programmes, maintain governance standards, challenge underperformance, and ensure that stakeholders across Delivery, Commercial, Procurement, Legal and Operations remain aligned. By identifying risks early, managing governance forums, and driving action ownership, you'll play a vital role in supporting successful delivery outcomes across Cornerstone's strategic programmes, particularly within the VMo2 portfolio.
