A good step up from external consultancy

Programmer manager

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Lots of responsibility and senior level exposure from the get go across a wide range of projects. Good support structure within an ambitious team and strong opportunities for development/progression. Makes sense if you want to deliver consultancy style work and variety but at a more senior level and see results through to fruition as well as developing longer term relationships and stripping out the PD/BD required in Big 4/external consultancies.

Cons

Need to be resilient to deliver some of the more challenging change programmes across such a large organisation. Like consultancy working hours ebb and flow but team is always fair about work life balance.
