Change the Game - come work at Virgin Money!
Virgin is well known for doing things better and we're constantly on the lookout for talented, imaginative and smart people to challenge the status quo and help deliver success. It's an incredibly exciting time to be part of the business so if you'd like to share this journey with us, read on...

We are looking to recruit experienced and talented Change Specialists to help deliver our exciting portfolio. Our approach is to understand the opportunity and explore the art of the possible, to turn great ideas into great designs. Find fantastic solutions to not only meet the need but truly innovate and help to change the face of banking. Planning and mobilising for successful delivery are key so you can deliver the right outcome at the right time for the right price.

We are seeking brilliant Senior Project Managers to help us achieve our ambitions. It's a great opportunity to be part of a team with big plans to drive and manage effective change to help us build a better bank. It's an incredibly diverse role and no day is the same. If you like working in a fast paced environment then this could be the role for you!

To be considered you'll have extensive experience of delivering challenging projects using various project management methodologies. With strong stakeholder management skills you will have successfully led disparate virtual teams often geographically dispersed and you will have the confidence to hit the ground running as well as the resilience to stimulate debate and challenge proposals to ensure best outcomes are achieved

As an engaging individual you'll need to be a strong planner, problem solver and deliver pragmatically as you support a number of programmes across the business. The ability to deal with ambiguity and a natural flair for building relationships and gravitas will enable you to work effectively with senior stakeholders and external partners.

In order to keep us safe, controls, governance and risk management experience will also be essential.

To be successful you must have worked within a regulated environment and if you can bring knowledge of Agile project methodology, that would be the icing on the cake!
