Inside IR35 - umbrella only

Active SC clearance required

Overview:

You'll be supporting a wider set of Programme Managers on exit-related projects-helping drive clarity, momentum and trustworthy delivery across decommissioning and data initiatives. If you're at your best when details matter, stakeholders are involved, and outcomes need to stand up to scrutiny, this could be a great short-term contract opportunity.

What you'll be doing:

• Support PMs across a range of exit workstreams, including data extraction, data mapping, and data cleansing
• Help with source-to-target mapping, data profiling, reconciliation, and data validation activities
• Contribute to data quality assessments and ensure issues are tracked through to resolution
• Coordinate with internal SMEs, customer teams, third-party suppliers, architects, security teams, and data owners
• Own and maintain practical project controls such as RAID management, decision logs, action tracking, and executive reporting
• Provide audit evidence where required, with strong attention to process and documentation
• Support budget management activities and apply commercial judgement to delivery

What you'll bring:

• Strong experience in data extraction and data management, with confidence in issue resolution
• Banking/Financial Services data initiative experience (or similar data governance-driven environments)
• Clear contractual and commercial awareness, with a collaborative stakeholder approach
• Demonstrable coordination experience across multiple groups (including security and data owners)
• High attention to detail, especially when validating data and preparing executive/audit outputs
• Comfort working within heavily governed programme environments
• Previous exit/transition experience in a data-focused context

If you can bring structured control, calm coordination and a data-quality mindset to exit programmes, we'd love to hear from you.
