You will be responsible for developing and embedding change control processes across the programme, working within the Programme Management Office (PMO) core team. This includes integrating change control processes with the digital strategy, developing functional requirements for a digital change control solution, and supporting its implementation and adoption.

Your role will also involve maintaining baseline integrity by ensuring consistency of change control, managing change registers, and driving timely approval or rejection of proposals. You will manage operational programme controls issues, work closely with change owners and functional leads to ensure consistency of change proposals, and oversee change control activities to identify lessons learned and opportunities for continuous improvement.

You will also provide assurance, training, and stakeholder support by developing and delivering change control guidance, training, and communications for programme teams, Trusts, and other stakeholders. Building effective relationships across the programme and providing practical support to ensure consistent application of change control processes is essential.

Mace values safety, client focus, integrity, and creating opportunities for people to excel. We champion a safe, diverse, and inclusive working environment and are open to discussing part-time, flexible, and hybrid working options where suitable.
