Job Description

Turnkey Africa is a leading Pan-African insurance technology and services provider. We are looking for a PMO Delivery Lead to own our delivery office and ensure structured execution across all program facets. This role requires a disciplined approach to project management, from tracking critical paths and managing risk logs to coordinating multi-stakeholder readiness across marketing, commercial, and technical teams.

Core Responsibilities

Project Oversight: Own the delivery office, managing the master tracker (critical path), dependencies, RAG status, and weekly action chasing.
Pipeline Management: Maintain pipelines and forecasts for Speakers, Sponsors, and Registrations; keep next actions explicit.
Risk & Decision Management: Maintain decision and risk logs; escalate early with options and recommendations.
Execution Cadence: Run the weekly execution cadence: steering pack, minutes, and action closure discipline.
Program Operations: Support program execution: speaker operations (confirmations, packs, deadlines, rehearsal scheduling).
Cross-Functional Coordination: Coordinate readiness across operations, marketing, commercial, technical programs, and finance; maintain run-of-show and day-of playbook.
Crisis Management: Coordinate event-week “war-room” rhythm: issue triage, escalation, and rapid resolution.
Reporting: Coordinate post-event close-out and reporting pack.

Working Relationships

You will work closely with: the Convener & Program Owner, a Commercial Lead (sponsorships/registrations/collections), Marketing & Communications leadership, Event Operations leadership (venue and vendors), a Technical Programs lead (workshops/challenge/case study), and a Finance/Admin lead (budget, invoicing/receipts, approvals).

Candidate Profile

5+ years PMO / program delivery / operations experience (specifically in events or multi-stakeholder delivery).
Demonstrated cadence discipline: trackers, weekly reporting, action chasing, escalation, and decisioning.
Strong stakeholder management; comfortable coordinating senior leaders and vendors.
Crisp written communication and high attention to detail; calm under pressure.
Qualification: BA/BSc/HND.
