Reporting to the Head of Data & Reporting, this role will be based in London or Manchester with travel to the other office being a pre-requisite.

Key Accountabilities * Define, agree and deliver the cost and benefits management process, working with finance and broader business stakeholders as required. * Develop and oversee the benefits realisation framework, tracking performance against business case projections. * Work in partnership with Finance to monitor the financial aspects of all portfolio initiatives, identifying deviations from expected outcomes and initiating corrective action as required.
