Pmo Lead

**PMO Team Leader** **Lead with purpose. Deliver with impact.** If you are an experienced professional who thrives in complex project environments and brings strong expertise in system compliance, resourcing, and risk management, ERM invites you to join us as a PMO Team Leader. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys being close to project delivery—ensuring projects run effectively, compliantly, and with the right resources in place. **Why This Role Matters** As a PMO Team Leader, you will play a critical role in ensuring projects are delivered in line with ERM’s systems, processes, and compliance standards. You will act as a key partner to project teams—supporting resourcing, forecasting, and risk management—while providing hands-on guidance to keep delivery on track. This is a highly operational role, suited for someone who understands how projects are executed on the ground and can translate that knowledge into strong governance and performance outcomes. **What Your Impact Is** * Ensure **system compliance** by aligning project delivery with ERM’s processes, tools, and governance frameworks. * Support **effective project execution** through hands-on involvement in delivery activities and problem-solving. * Drive **resource planning and forecasting**, ensuring the right talent is allocated to projects at the right time. * Monitor and manage **project risks**, proactively identifying issues and supporting mitigation strategies. * Contribute to **financial oversight**, including budgeting and utilization tracking. * Provide leadership and guidance to team members, while maintaining a strong focus on delivery and outcomes (people leadership is important but secondary to execution in this role). **What You Will Bring** **Required** * Bachelor’s degree in environmental science, engineering, sustainability, or a related field. * **15+ years of relevant experience** in project delivery, PMO, or consulting environments. * Strong understanding of **project delivery frameworks, system compliance, and governance structures**. * Proven experience in **resource forecasting, budgeting, and project planning**. * Demonstrated ability to manage **risk and support project teams in execution**. **Preferred** * Experience working in **consulting or technical project environments**. * Familiarity with **enterprise PMO systems and compliance tools**. * Strong stakeholder coordination and problem-solving capabilities. * Experience supporting large, multi-disciplinary project teams. **Key Responsibilities** **System & Compliance Oversight** * Ensure projects adhere to ERM’s systems, processes, and compliance requirements. * Provide guidance on how projects should be structured and delivered within established frameworks. **Project Delivery Support** * Work closely with project teams to support execution and resolve delivery challenges. * Act as a key partner in ensuring projects are delivered efficiently and effectively. **Resourcing & Forecasting** * Lead resource planning, allocation, and forecasting activities. * Ensure optimal utilization of team members across projects. **Risk & Financial Management** * Identify, monitor, and mitigate project risks. * Support budgeting, cost tracking, and financial performance management. **Team Support & Coordination** * Provide guidance and oversight to team members, with a focus on enabling delivery success. * Foster collaboration across teams and functions to drive project outcomes. **What Sets This Role Apart** This is not a traditional people-manager role. While team leadership is part of the position, the primary focus is on **hands-on project support, system compliance, and operational excellence**. The ideal candidate is someone who is deeply familiar with how projects run day-to-day and can step in to guide, support, and improve delivery outcomes.
