Can you stamp your mark on a team with lots of need for growth and improvement?Could you lead, drive and build an outstanding PMO team?Come from an MSP/MSSP background and want to build something of your own?

At the beginning, whilst you’re building the team, strategy, culture etc – there’s an expectation for the role to be hybrid (important you’re in and around your team driving culture and excellence), but once you’re up and running and the team are firing, then you can work from anywhere.
