Full Job Description

This is an exciting time to join the Online team! As We are looking for the next Lead Programme Manager to join the F&F Online team.

We have an ambitious vision for the launch of our F&F brand Online and the project spans many functions including Online, Technology and F&F.

Working collaboratively as part of a squad across Online, Technology and F&F, you will lead how we translate the vision and strategy into tangible, Agile Delivery. Using superb comprehensive thinking skills you'll own the Programme plan and create a clear picture of the overall programme highlighting the key dependencies, achievements, risks and opportunities. You will be the face of our Programme plan to senior collaborators and will manage effective Governance to drive this Programme forward.

At Tesco, we believe in the power of spending more time together, face to face, than apart. So, during your working week, you can expect to spend 60% of your time in one of our office locations or local sites and the rest remotely. We also recognise that life looks a little different for each of us. Some people are at the start of their careers, some want the freedom to do the things they love. Others are going through life-changing moments like becoming a carer, nearing retirement, adapting to parenthood, or something else. That's why at Tesco, we always welcome a conversation about flexible working. So, talk to us throughout your application about how we can support.

You will be responsible for:

Owning and building the end-to-end programme plan for launch of F&F Online by consolidating inputs from the various teams working on each stream and identifying dependencies between streams, risks and opportunities
Contributing to the programme vision, strategy and long-term roadmap.
Surfacing risks, dependencies and trade-offs across the programme
Managing complex change in an organised and structured manner.
Managing customer engagement cross functionally and across all levels in the business to ensure programme priorities are aligned across the relevant business plans and are well sponsored.
Owning the communication process to support the project, ensuring creativity, clear, concise and timely communication relevant to target audience.
Creating simple and effective methods to demonstrate the end to end benefits or impacts of projects within the programme and aligning customers around them.
Following our Business Code of Conduct and always acting with integrity and due diligence.
Establishing and running effective governance across all business units and at all levels.
Embedding sustainable change across multiple functions.

Experience of defining and delivering complex programmes and projects
Experience of delivering sustainable change and embedding new ways of working across broad groups of stakeholders
The ability to build strong working relationships with peers, partners, and teams across the business. Able to leverage these relationships to build consensus and drive alignment
Excellent communication skills (verbal, written and listening)

Our vision at Tesco is to become every customer's favourite way to shop, whether they are at home or out on the move. Our core purpose is 'Serving our customers, communities and planet a little better every day'. Serving means more than a transactional relationship with our customers. It means acting as a responsible and sustainable business for all stakeholders, for the communities we are part of and for the planet.

We are proud to have an inclusive culture at Tesco where everyone truly feels able to be themselves. At Tesco, we not only celebrate diversity, but recognise the value and opportunity it brings. We're committed to creating a workplace where differences are valued, and make sure that all colleagues are given the same opportunities. We're a big business with diverse working patterns and many business areas which means that we can find something that works for you. Everyone is welcome at Tesco.

We have recently announced that we will be moving towards a more blended working week - combining office and remote working. Our offices will continue to be where we connect, collaborate and innovate. Please talk to us to about how this can work for you.
