Set the bar for greatness...

We have an exciting opportunity for a Programme Manager to join our FA Learning division. The Programme Manager plays a strategic and connective role in shaping and coordinating activity across FA Learning, with a particular focus on digital and data transformation.

Within the digital and data transformation space, the purpose of the role is two-fold: to ensure digital and data change lands effectively across the business through strong business change, organisational readiness and adoption; and to ensure dependencies and connections across the strategy are clear, with digital and data activity effectively enabling wider strategic programmes and priorities.

Working closely with Learn Pod and other delivery partners who lead the technical delivery, the role helps join up activity across FA Learning, ensure programmes and initiatives are aligned to FA Learning Strategy and Business Plans, and support effective embedding across the wider business. The role will also pick up programmes outside of the digital transformation space, so it requires someone who can adapt their approach across different programme contexts and work effectively across a varied portfolio.

• Programme Leadership & Integrated Delivery – Lead end-to-end programme coordination across multiple projects and initiatives, managing plans, milestones, dependencies, risks and resources to ensure coherence across activity, high-quality delivery, and strong connectivity between strategy, business teams, Learn Pod/delivery partners and operational areas. Apply a flexible and adaptable approach across both digital transformation and other programmes within the portfolio.

• Change Leadership & Adoption – champion engagement, adoption and behaviour change across FA Learning, supporting teams through transformation with clear communication and inclusive change approaches to embed digital and data‑enabled ways of working into everyday practice.

• Business Readiness & Operational Integration – Ensure business readiness for digital and data initiatives by coordinating preparedness activities across people, processes, governance, capability and communication, enabling smooth transition from technical delivery into sustainable operational use across the business.

• Governance, Assurance & Financial Stewardship – Establish and maintain effective programme governance, reporting, risk management and budget oversight, ensuring appropriate decision-making, transparency, control and value for money across programmes.

• Insight‑Informed Performance & Value Realisation – work closely with Strategic Insight Leads to track programme effectiveness against agreed outcomes and measures of success, using evidence to inform decisions, adapt delivery and maximise benefits realisation.

• Capability Building & Continuous Improvement – support the Senior Lead – Programme Management to embed best‑practice programme management across FA Learning, contributing to strategic, business and financial planning cycles, post‑programme evaluation, and continuous improvement of ways of working.
