About the Role

Strategic Program Manager, Engineering & Emerging Technologies
Ready to move beyond consulting PowerPoints and see real-world impact?
Are you frustrated with constantly moving from project to project, never truly seeing the outcome of your work? Tired of airport lounges, endless stakeholder decks, and being deployed wherever the next client demand appears?
This is an opportunity to step out of the consulting cycle and into a role where you can shape, lead, and deliver cutting-edge technology programs that create tangible, lasting impact.
We are looking for a high-calibre strategic leader with a strong engineering or technical background and experience gained within a top-tier consultancy. You will have spent at least three years managing complex, high-profile programs and working alongside senior executives on business-critical initiatives involving emerging technologies and innovation.
Now, we want someone ready to take ownership, not just advise.
This role offers the chance to lead major strategic technology initiatives from concept through execution, working closely with leadership teams while seeing the direct end-user and business impact of your work.
What You’ll Be Doing
  • Leading large-scale strategic technology programs
  • Partnering directly with executive leadership to shape strategic direction and technology priorities.
  • Taking ownership of complex programs from strategy through delivery, not simply advising, but delivering outcomes.
  • Building governance, delivery frameworks, and stakeholder engagement models that enable successful execution.
  • Identifying opportunities to leverage emerging technologies to create a competitive advantage.
  • Influencing senior stakeholders through strategic insight, structured thinking, and strong communication.
What We’re Looking For
  • Minimum 6+ years’ experience managing technology programs.
  • Time served in a management or technology consultancy.
  • Strong engineering, STEM, or technical background.
  • Proven experience leading complex strategic programs or cutting-edge technology initiatives.
  • Exposure to emerging technologies such as AI, machine learning, automation, cloud platforms, or advanced analytics.
  • Exceptional stakeholder management and leadership capability.
  • Someone who enjoys solving complex problems but also wants to see the real-world impact of their work.
