Position Role Type:
OnsiteProgramme Director
Be at the forefront of transforming British Army training.
About us:
At OMNIA® Training, we’ve brought together some of the UK’s most innovative defence training organisations under one powerful mission: to transform the British Army’s training system and create the best-trained Army in the world.
OMNIA are redefining the British Army’s collective training. To do that, we are looking for the best and brightest minds from across the UK. We are backed by British innovation and powered by world-class experts, like you. OMNIA is at the heart of the UK’s bold Land Industrial Strategy.
The role:
This is more than a job — it’s a mission. You will be part of a high-impact, collaborative environment, where we expect everyone to live the values and standards of the British Army. Every person in our team plays a critical role in delivering OMNIA’s vision; designing, delivering, and transforming collective training so the British Army is ready to fight and win.
You’ll work in a matrix organisation and report operationally through OMNIA Training and functionally through the Raytheon UK Enterprise Performance Group (EPG). Ultimately, you’ll work for the British Army, championing innovation, and helping shape the future of military training.
As Programme Director for Raytheon UK in a Prime Contractor role, you will lead a Raytheon Programme Management team and coordinate across Tier 1 and Tier 2 partners, and work alongside the customer.
The programme operates in the Military Land Training domain. This role does not need to be a domain expert; there is an abundance of domain expertise in the programme, what this role must bring is expertise in programme management processes and tools, and experience in applying these across large programmes.
This role reports to the Managing Director of Omnia Training based in Warminster. The role holder will work collaboratively with industry partners, suppliers and the customer to successfully mobilise, deliver and continuously improve the Army Collective Training Service.
The main duties of the role are to -
Lead, manage and successfully deliver all contractual requirements within agreed budgets, schedules and performance standards.
Establish and maintain programme governance, risk management, reporting and control frameworks to ensure successful programme execution.
Promote Programme Management Excellence (PMX) best practice and lead by example to instil a culture of flawless programme execution, accountability and continuous improvement.
Conduct a regular tempo of downwards and upwards governance engagements to assure delivery and programme success.
Develop, coach and mentor programme team members.
Develop collaborative relationships with senior stakeholders within the Customer, strategic Partners, an ecosystem of Suppliers and across Raytheon.
Be part of the Omnia Training senior leadership team.
Act as a Subject Matter Expert for Programme Execution.
Actively contribute to the development of Knowledge and Skills across the Raytheon UK PMX function.
Who we are looking for:
We are looking for individuals who want to serve. You’ll have a mission focus, and the enthusiasm and drive to ‘get things done’. You’ll want to work in collaboration with other defence training organisations, and the British Army. You won’t let bureaucracy get in the way of what needs to be done, you’ll learn lessons and share
these lessons across the team. You won’t necessarily have a military background, but you’ll understand what it means to serve and to put the mission first.
Successful track record in delivering complex programmes, preferably for a prime contractor and including systems integration.
Experienced in working within partnering environments in a prime contractor role, alongside the customer and other contract delivery contractors.
Experienced in leading large multi-disciplined teams over geographically dispersed sites.
Track record of delivering business transformation through innovation, continuous improvement and the introduction of new technologies and processes.
Strong commercial, financial and performance management skills commensurate with delivery of large complex projects.
Experienced user of industry standard project management tools, techniques, and methodologies. Ideally in a defence context.
Current holder of, or eligibility to obtain, SC MOD security clearance.
Due to the security classification of this programme, candidates must be UK nationals (not dual nationals) and resident in the UK.
