We have been specifically commissioned to identify a high-calibre TBM Lead (VP) to spearhead a critical transformation within their technology function. This is a rare opportunity to move beyond technical tool administration and step into a strategic leadership position. Our client is looking for a TBM practitioner who can design, build, and roll out a comprehensive TBM Operating Model from the ground up to support a major, multi-year business transformation. The Impact You'll Make Operating Model Architect: Take immediate ownership of designing the TBM Operating Model. This involves defining the strategy, securing support from the CIO and CFO, and overseeing the staged rollout. Strategic Leadership: Act as the primary TBM thought leader for the bank, providing a clear vision for how cost transparency and service mapping empower data-driven investment decisions. Executive Influence: Serve as the "bridge" between Technology and Finance, articulating complex financial and technical trade-offs to senior leadership and business line heads.

What You'll Bring Proven Model Design: A track record of successfully designing and implementing TBM operating models within large-scale, complex enterprises. Banking Pedigree: Significant experience within a regulated banking environment (ideally in a permanent capacity) is highly desirable. TBM Thought Leadership: Deep expertise in TBM Council standards and the FinOps Foundation framework; you are an active participant in these professional communities. Strategic Breadth: The ability to balance technical infrastructure knowledge with financial FP&A fluency without being overly focused on one side of the spectrum.

The Mandate Our client is at a pivotal moment in their transformation journey. They require a visionary leader-someone looking to own a roadmap and build a world-class strategy. If you are a TBM specialist who excels at executive communication and operating model design, this is the most strategic mandate currently available in the London market.
