Programme Delivery Manager

Salary: £46,362 - £54,762 per annum

The British Film Institute is looking for a Programme Delivery Manager who will play an important part in the new BFI ten-year strategy: Screen Culture 2033.

About the role

We have an exciting opportunity for a Programme Delivery Manager to play an important part in the new BFI ten-year strategy – Screen Culture 2033 – which sets out how we will advance our knowledge, collections, programmes, National Lottery funding and leadership to build a diverse UK screen culture that benefits all of society.

Digital access to BFI programmes – and our digital revenues – are critical to help us realise our vision. The potential to deliver more of our work digitally presents us with a huge and transformative cultural opportunity.

The digital ambition is that by 2033, we will have radically reformed all BFI services by making them easy to use and widely available online, reaching more people and delivering more of our cultural programme digitally.

The Programme Delivery Manager will oversee the successful delivery of the digital services programme – a set of products and services of varying levels of complexity that are delivered by multiple teams. The role will be responsible for understanding requirements, managing and communicating to complex stakeholder groups and helping the digital team to balance priorities, manage resources, remove blockers and manage risk.

We are looking for candidates who have:

• Experience as a programme delivery manager or similar in a public sector environment.
• Experience of agile and lean methodologies and an ability to advocate for these techniques.
• Ability to work with, influence and build trust with multiple stakeholders at different levels.
• Committed to understanding user needs and user-centred design.

At the BFI you’ll enjoy benefits such as excellent support for working parents, 25 days annual leave (plus bank holidays), tickets to BFI festivals and events, plus many others.

We support diversity and inclusion, and as an organisation recognise that we need to address under representation within our teams. As such we strongly welcome and encourage applicants from our under-represented groups; who identify as D/deaf and disabled and/or are ethnically diverse. We guarantee a first interview to our under-represented groups who meet our minimum requirements.
