Purpose of Role:

Weir initiated the Performance Excellence (PEx) program in 2023. This is a multi-year transformation program which will deliver operational excellence across manufacturing and supply chain whilst migrating functional services to a global business services model.

A key underpinning for the PEx program is delivering our Target Enterprise Architecture (TEA) roadmap, which aligns our Internet Services & Technology (IS&T) systems and processes with the strategic capabilities needed by Weir over the next 5 – 7 years. This includes simplifying our complex IS&T landscape and migrating onto a converged ERP eco-system based on SAP S\4.

  • Manage the Corporate IS&T strategic portfolio backlog, supporting the bridge between the new product-based agile delivery and the more traditional project-based delivery.

  • Lead implementation of Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) at the portfolio level

  • Monitor and report on portfolio performance

  • Working with the WBS PMO team to develop and maintain the IS&T portfolio management framework, including governance, prioritisation, and management of IS&T projects and programs.

  • Develop and maintain strong and collaborative relationships with internal stakeholders, external partners and sponsors.

  • Oversee and ‘quality assure’ the production of management documents, including project charters and business case materials

  • Manage and communicate overall portfolio financials.

  • Optimise resource allocation based on resource availability and prioritized projects.

  • Safety First : Demonstrate 100% commitment to our zero harm behaviours in support of our drive towards developing a world class safety culture.

Job Knowledge/Education and Qualifications:
  • Leadership and facilitation skills with the ability to communicate and elaborate with individuals at different levels

  • Proven track record in IT portfolio management, strategic planning, and project management.

  • Direct experience with the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe), including implementing and managing SAFe at the portfolio level, ideally SAFe Lean Portfolio Manager 6 certified.
