Employer: Post Office
Salary:
Date Added: 22/03/2024
Reporting Line: Transformation & Operations Director – Mails
Contract Type: Permanent
Location: Wood Street, London
Closing Date: 5th April 2024
What to expect
The Head of Mails and Parcels Change Initiatives will proactively oversee and drive all change activity in the rapidly evolving Mails and Parcels business unit. In this role, you will essentially deliver a step change in positive outcomes for Mails for activities that sit outside of the central change function, addressing a gap that has emerged due to the level of innovation and improvement required.
This will be delivered by driving the work of several vital cross functional change workstreams (outside of central change) including Network Strategy, Retail, Digital, Marketing and Communications, ultimately improving how Mails related change is delivered and then landed in POL. In addition, the role will have indirect accountability for the success and deliver of the Central Change projects which, as of 24/25, will not have a (level 4) programme manager.
