We're seeking a Portfolio & Transformation Management Office Lead to provide services and capabilities to the Head of Change & Change Team to support the delivery of the transformation and alignment of the Munich Re Specialty Global Markets (MRS-GM) portfolio of change to company strategy, regulatory/mandatory requirements, and desired outcomes.

The successful candidate will work closely with the Head of Change to ensure C-level and internal stakeholders have the required level of insight into the portfolio through relevant data and information. They will take an innovative and creative approach to demonstrate a true value add, opposed to a traditional PMO function, and set the strategy for the Portfolio & Transformation Mgt Office.

Key Responsibilities

  • Maintain the portfolio prioritisation framework and work closely with the Head of Change and business stakeholders to ensure the portfolio remains aligned to business priorities and can clearly articulate impacts if pivoting of priorities is required.
  • Work closely with the Change Leadership team to ensure the portfolio integrated roadmap and transition phases of the transformation have the correct and desired inputs.
  • Ensure the current governance is effective and materials are created and distributed in a timely fashion (e.g. Change Committee, Portfolio SteerCo, Budget & Governance meetings).
  • Pro-actively create reports to demonstrate the health of the portfolio and be creative with how information is analysed and presented.
  • Working with the PMO team to create, maintain and update relevant slide packs / data sets for monthly meetings incl. Executive SteerCo, Portfolio Governance overview, monthly business function meetings and provide minute taking where required.
  • Be actively engaged and support (along with the team) the Change team with core project activities across the project lifecycle. This will include, but is not limited to, setting-up governance, getting to understand the projects and their outcomes in order to provide greater value-add, planning, resource management/mapping and RAID management.
  • Providing inputs at the early phases to ensure Programme/Project Managers are clear on the project framework and required governance.
  • Ownership of maintaining a central view of required and projected spend through engagement across the business functions.
  • Regular reporting on forecast against budget and identifying ways to utilise funds effectively.
  • Aligning with the Programme and Project Managers on the process for management of project specific budgets and providing inputs/support to ensure full transparency.
  • Working with IT PMO and Portfolio Management to bring an holistic picture of the overall Change & transformation spend for MRS-GM.

Knowledge and Skills

  • Portfolio Management Office of large scale transformation programmes/projects.
  • Attention to detail and strives for accuracy and data quality.
  • Result focused, self-motivated, flexible and enthusiastic.
  • Demonstrable ability to proactively build relationships and manage stakeholders, including providing robust advice, constructive challenge, influencing decisions, delivering well constructed data and insights.
  • Exemplary presentation skills (both creating and presenting).
  • The right attitude is more important than qualifications but if you have any PMO qualifications, that's a bonus.

Your Career with Us

At Munich Re Specialty Group, you'll find the flexibility, development, and support you need to excel your career combined with a competitive salary and a benefits package that promotes wellbeing and work-life balance, on top of the standard features that include a non-contributory pension, private medical care, life assurance, and more.
