PMO Manager

We’re looking for a PMO Manager to join our team in Leeds city centre on a permanent basis. This hybrid role offers the flexibility of 2 days in the office.

This is an exciting opportunity to build and shape a centralised portfolio management practice, giving you the chance to make a real impact on how Liberty Blume prioritises investment, balances demand and capacity, and delivers strategic change.

Working within the Chief Technology Officer team, you’ll play a key role in bringing greater visibility, control and insight across our technology portfolio, helping ensure our investment priorities, business demand and delivery capacity stay aligned.

This is a hands-on, high-impact role for someone who combines strong ownership and attention to detail with analytical thinking and practical problem-solving. You’ll partner with project managers, developers, commercial teams, senior leaders and external suppliers to turn strategy into clear, actionable plans and build a portfolio management capability that supports the continued growth of the business.

What will you be doing?

• Own and maintain the technology delivery portfolio, creating a clear, reliable view across products, platforms and strategic change initiatives.
• Drive portfolio prioritisation, balancing business value, risk, dependencies and delivery capacity to help leaders make informed investment decisions.
• Manage the end-to-end demand lifecycle, from new work requests and prioritisation through to approval and delivery.

Governance, insight & reporting

• Turn portfolio data into clear, actionable insight, helping senior leaders understand progress, priorities, dependencies and delivery risks.
• Lead portfolio governance forums, bringing the right stakeholders together to make decisions, resolve trade-offs and keep delivery moving.
• Develop practical portfolio controls, standards and ways of working that strengthen delivery without creating unnecessary complexity.

Financial & commercial management

• Maintain oversight of delivery spend and forecasts, ensuring investment remains aligned with agreed budgets.
• Manage significant third-party expenditure and support the effective governance of supplier costs and commercial agreements.

We tend to look for people with:

Essential:

• Confidence turning complex portfolio information into clear, actionable insights and recommendations for senior leaders, helping stakeholders make informed decisions.

• Strong working knowledge of Jira, Microsoft Excel and PowerPoint, with experience using AI tools such as ROVO, Microsoft Copilot or Gemini Enterprise to improve reporting, analysis and insight.
• Excellent meeting and workshop facilitation skills, with the confidence to drive decisions, actions and accountability.
• Highly organised and comfortable working autonomously, balancing changing priorities and competing deadlines in a fast-paced environment.
• A strong eye for detail and a disciplined approach to data quality, governance and controls, ensuring portfolio information is accurate and reliable.
• A relevant portfolio, programme or project management qualification, such as MoP, MSP, P3O or equivalent professional certification.

Desirable:

• Experience building, establishing or scaling a portfolio management capability, particularly within a start-up, scale-up or rapidly evolving organisation.
• Experience working within a fast-paced technology environment, particularly one embracing AI-enabled tools and new approaches to delivery.
