Company Description
JobBusters is an authorized staffing and recruitment company. We are focused on white-collar workers and place great value on finding the right person for the right position. By being flexible, accessible and present in relation to customer, consultant and candidate, we aim to find our customers 'dream candidates and our candidates' dream jobs.

Job Description
We are looking for an experienced programme manager to help our client’s team adopt much more disciplined programme management practices to get their work done. The team is part of their Global Marketing organisation primarily based in Stockholm and working on a range of projects that can be short (i.e. 2-3 months) and long (running over more than 1 year). Some of these projects are critical in transforming their organisation. The team have a good deal of subject matter expertise and relationships with the key stakeholders but do not have any formal PM experience or qualifications.

As a result, they are currently lacking clarity around scope of projects, objectives, stakeholders, governance, status, and timelines. This is impacting their ability to deliver and it’s not altogether clear to them the totality of what they are working on, which projects are going well/badly and that others (including senior management) have confidence that these key initiatives are fully under control. We are therefore looking for someone who can work with them very closely for several months to help to address this.

RESPONSIBILITIES:
They are looking for help in 3 primary areas that are understandably inter-related:

• Take inputs from the team on current and planned projects to translate them into PM material including project scopes/charters, gantt charts, status reports and other key documentation. The team will be able to verbally describe these projects at length so that task is to understand these and then commit them to a visual form to both help the team better manage the projects and communicate with outside stakeholders.
• Develop templated documentation that can be re-used for multiple projects that are either planned or not yet foreseen. Essentially, we’re looking for a set of PM assets in a library that we are able to use going forward in an accessible way.
• Teach, through the above, the team key principles and practices of competent programme management so that, as a team, we become much more effective in delivering our work.


Personal qualities
We think that you have great skills in leading teams, solving complex problems with a holistic approach and communicating difficult concepts in a smart way. We also believe that you have a great talent for understanding the bigger picture while at the same time understanding the importance of the details.


Admission and Application
The assignment is for approx. 35 hrs/week. The position will start as soon as possible, and the assignment is expected to run until 2021-07-14, with possible extension. For this assignment you will be employed by JobBusters as a consultant at our client. Submit your application in English as soon as interviews are ongoing. Great if a portfolio of previous accomplishment is included in the application.
