Change and delivery recruitment
There’s a difference between running a programme and reporting on one. We find the people who run them.
Roles we fill
Mid-level to head of department, contract and permanent, across the UK.
Project managers
Deliver a defined piece of change on time and on budget.
Programme managers
Run several related projects towards one outcome.
PMO
Keep the reporting, governance and actions that hold a portfolio together.
Business analysts
Work out what the business needs before anyone builds it.
Delivery leads
Keep agile teams delivering and remove what’s in their way.
Scrum masters
Coach teams to work well together, sprint after sprint.
Where change and delivery hires go wrong
We see the same mistakes again and again. If your brief is heading for one, we’ll tell you.
Hiring a reporter to fix a programme
If the programme is off track, you need someone who has turned one around, not someone who will describe the problem well.
Agile or waterfall, but not saying which
Candidates are strong in one way of working. If your organisation is really hybrid, say so, and we’ll find people who have done that.
A business analyst with no business
An analyst who knows your sector asks better questions from day one. In financial services that matters more than any method.
How we test for it
Before you meet anyone, we’ve asked the questions a generalist wouldn’t. Here are three we ask in every change and delivery search.
- “Tell me about a project that went off track. What did you do in the first week?”
- “Who did you have to say no to, and how did you do it?”
- “How do you know a status report is telling the truth?”
You’ll work with the founders. Every time.
No hand-offs to a junior team. The person you speak to first knows the market, knows your brief and stays with you until the hire is made.

Questions hiring managers ask
Do you recruit interim and contract change people?
Yes. Much of our change and delivery work is contract, from PMO analysts to programme directors.
Do you recruit outside financial services?
Yes. Most of our change work is in banks and insurers, but we also recruit for start-ups and other sectors.
Can you staff a whole PMO?
Yes. Our Multiple Hire Project plans and runs several hires at once, so a new programme starts with the team it needs.
