Programme Directors

Programme Director

Programme Director - Programme Management RecruitmentThe Programme Director in many organisations is a senior responsible person who is charged with the delivery of a desired outcome and typically many of the tasks and responsibilities would be recognisable in the description of that of a programme manager.

In many instances the term Director has been added for status when in this format rather than meaning that this person is a director as in the definition of a "company director".

A Programme Director, like a programme manager, would typically, but not always be in charge of the delivery of multiple concurrent activities.

The use of Programme Director may be a function of scale where a large deliverable requires multiple Programme Managers to be deployed, each with their own area of specialism such as Business Change, Facilities, Product X, the term Programme Director being used to define a hierarchy.
