# PMO Lead

> G MASS · London, United Kingdom · Contract · Posted 2026-06-19

**Workplace:** on_site

## Description

G MASS Consulting is seeking an experienced PMO Lead for a specialist nuclear liability coverholder and underwriting agent operating within the Lloyd’s market. This is a lean, mission-critical business in the midst of a board-directed transformation - with ambitious growth targets to 2030 and a clear mandate to professionalise its delivery capability. 

The foundations of a PMO exist but remain underdeveloped. This is not a greenfield build, nor is it a large-corporate programme environment. The right person will be equally at home advising a board and rolling up their sleeves alongside a small, high-ownership team. 

The role sits at the heart of the organisation’s strategic delivery agenda, translating board-level direction - including an ongoing engagement with a major professional services firm - into a structured, executable operating model. 

Hybrid working with three days per week at the client’s London office. 

**What You’ll Do** 

-   Assess and critique the current PMO setup with experienced, fresh eyes — understand what exists, what’s missing, and what needs to change 

-   Establish and embed a governance framework and operating cadence appropriate to a specialist Lloyd’s coverholder — proportionate, not bureaucratic 

-   Run and chair programme and steering meetings, ensuring clear ownership and momentum across all workstreams 

-   Serve as the operational link between the board-level strategic engagement and internal delivery teams, translating strategic intent into structured plans 

-   Lead prioritisation across a concurrent portfolio of initiatives, allocating resource and attention across competing demands with clarity and discipline 

-   Drive the new product development agenda operationally — supporting the business in building the structures and processes needed to expand its specialty underwriting footprint 

-   Oversee technology initiatives focused on scaling the platform for sustainable growth 

-   Support people and workforce priorities, including the restructuring of business development and underwriting functions 

-   Manage senior stakeholders with confidence, including at C-suite and board level, in a high-ownership, relationship-driven environment 

-   Define and document the target operating model, building towards a structured and well-documented handover to a permanent function

## Requirements

-   A seasoned PMO professional with a strong track record of building or significantly improving PMO functions — ideally in environments where the function was nascent or underdeveloped 

-   Comfortable operating across an entire organisation in a lean team environment — this is not a role for someone who needs a large support structure around them 

-   Specialty insurance or Lloyd’s market experience is essential — coverholder or underwriting agent experience is strongly preferred; you need to be credible in front of a specialist underwriting team 

-   Proven ability to act as the bridge between external strategic advisors and internal delivery — translating high-level direction into practical, owned plans 

-   Experienced in building and applying prioritisation frameworks for resource allocation across competing initiatives in a resource-constrained environment 

-   Comfortable with ambiguity and constructive challenge — the business is moving fast and not everything is defined; you should be energised by that, not unsettled by it 

-   Available to start August-September 2025

## Benefits

Salary to be discussed.

Initial 6-month contract, with view for further extension.
