Senior Project Programme Manager

Gravitiq is a fast-growing global consumer goods group, home to a portfolio of beauty, wellness and lifestyle brands. Grace & Stella, one of our key brands, is undertaking the largest operational transformation programme in its history - spanning reformulation, repackaging and a phased retail rollout.

We are looking for an experienced Senior Programme Manager, 2-4 days per week, for a 6 month contract to take ownership of this transformation: building the integrated plan, holding the critical path, and driving cross-functional delivery against milestones. This is a delivery-focused mandate - you are accountable for the programme landing on time, in scope and with the right cross-functional alignment, not for setting the company’s broader operating systems.

Maximise your chances of a successful application to this job by ensuring your CV and skills are a good match.

Key Responsibilities:

Working closely with points of contact from Brand/Marketing, Creative, Supply Chain, Product Development, Regulatory and Commercial, you will own end-to-end delivery of the Grace & Stella transformation programme. Focus areas include:

• Reformulation programme – product development and improvement workstreams
• A repackaging programme – managing primary componentry changeover and packaging redesign refresh.
• Retail phase-in / phase-out – sequencing the transition of SKUs and packaging formats across retail and other channels.
• Integrated programme planning & critical path management – building and maintaining a single source of truth across all workstreams.
• Cross-functional coordination – aligning with point of contacts from Brand, Supply Chain, Product Development, Regulatory and Commercial around shared timelines and dependencies.
• Defining milestones and driving delivery against them – tracking progress, surfacing risks early, and escalating decisions where needed.

What Success Looks Like:

By the end of the engagement, Grace & Stella will have:

• A single, integrated programme plan with a clear critical path across reformulation, repackaging and retail phase-in/out.
• Milestones met (or proactively re-planned) with full visibility for stakeholders.
• Strong cross-functional alignment and a clear escalation route for risks and decisions.
• A reformulated and repackaged product range successfully transitioned across retail and DTC channels.

Requirements:

• You have led complex, cross-functional transformation or NPD programmes in a consumer goods, beauty, wellness, retail or DTC environment, ideally involving reformulation, repackaging or retail transitions.
• You are comfortable building and owning an integrated plan across multiple workstreams and holding teams accountable to it.
• Strong stakeholder management, structured planning (e.g. critical path / Gantt-based methods) and a bias towards practical, hands-on delivery are essential. xwzovoh
