ROLE PROFILE

Exciting new opportunity to join LSEG’s Group Investment Management (GIM) – a group level Operations Division that plays a critical role in shaping and overseeing the organisation’s Change Portfolio. The GIM team is responsible for annual Investment Planning and capital allocation across a multi-million (£) Change Portfolio, governed via the Group Investment Committee which the team runs. Beyond investment oversight, the team is responsible for executive reporting on programme delivery performance and development of dashboards and reports to distil large amounts of data into data driven insights and recommendations. Additional responsibilities include carrying out independent delivery assurance and setting the Group-wide delivery framework (standards, guidance and requirements) to ensure best practices are followed and governance requirements are met.

Your ability to interpret and utilize data science and analytics to deliver your work and support the team is crucial, in particular with respect to pro-actively measure and predict programme execution risk, using machine learning and AI to develop early warning risk indicators helping steer senior leadership management attention to the parts of the portfolio where delivery of planned benefits and outcomes is at risk of not being met or likely to require substantially more financial commitment than originally asked. The predictive risk metrics you will develop will allow timely management intervention, avoiding costly last minute write off and help foster a delivery discipline and delivery transparency culture.
