Found in: Talent UK C2 - 1 week ago

London, United Kingdom Blenheim Chalcot Full time

THE ROLE

Key responsibilities

The Portfolio Impact Manager (PIM) is a vital role within the Blenheim Chalcot Group and could either lead the incubation and growth of a new venture or engage with a portfolio business to provide critical strategic and operating capabilities where it is needed most. The successful PIM will play a major role in leading and shaping a venture’s development and either:

Drive and execute the plan and strategy for a new venture taking it from problem statement to Investment Business Case; and/or Undertake engagements within a portfolio business across growth strategy, sales and marketing strategy, operations, product marketing etc.

Specific duties

Depending on the project, you will need to be comfortable doing the following:

Be able to transition between ventures with the ability to ramp up quickly on market, company, team and/or function build and own the business case. Be point for all elements of incubating the venture. Drive business impact/change ‘from start to finish’: initial scoping, strategy formulation, analysis, action plan, execution. Own and deliver the program of work: put a structure around it, break it down into discrete pieces with clearly defined outputs. Work in a highly entrepreneurial environment, focusing on execution and ensuring plans come to fruition. Consistently build strong relationships with stakeholders centrally and in the portfolio companies. Develop and contracting relationships with other businesses; and Lead and manage teams.

Opportunity

This role is an excellent platform for experienced professionals to take their career to the next level and an opportunity unlikely to be found anywhere else. You will have the opportunity to work in a variety of sectors and at different stages of the venture lifecycle.

We pride ourselves on having an intentional and continuous learning culture at Blenheim Chalcot. As such, your ability to impact venture success will be amplified by access to shared learnings from leaders across the portfolio as well as the centrally located Venture Builder Services team. As a part of this role, you will also have the opportunity to take part in our cross-portfolio leadership development programme, Impact Boost, which aims to develop future senior leaders (with previous great success) and allow you to grow your entrepreneurial toolkit.

The experience and exposure that the role offers could mean a permanent C-Suite/GM level leadership role in an existing venture or, to potentially starting and running an entirely new venture within the group. Former PIMs have gone on to have accelerated career paths within Blenheim Chalcot with the role being the launchpad for at least two of our venture CEOs and three senior BC management members.

The ideal candidate will have a track-record in delivering results in a fast-moving business and hence be comfortable with change and uncertainty. Excellent stakeholder management experience is essential to being successful in this role.
