A team you can bring in to run a programme or a portfolio. We set up the structures, run the reporting, and hand it back once your own team is ready to hold it.
The programme has to start before a hiring round can finish.
More partners and projects than anyone can hold at once.
Each one sends a different format, so there is no single view of the portfolio.
A funder expects review rhythms and board packs the organisation has never produced.
Structures, tools, and reporting cadences from day one, with a clear line on what we own and what stays with you.
Experienced programme managers who plug into your team.
The reporting rhythms funders and boards expect.
We leave behind a unit your own team can run, and train the people who will hold it.
The people who come in, and what they bring with them.
People who have run multi-partner portfolios and can hold a funder conversation.
The PMU sits next to the engineers who build your MIS, so the reporting and the system agree.
A shared M&E framework across partners, plus the training to make partners use it.
Specialists pulled in as the programme needs them, rather than hired into it.
We manage them. The unit is accountable to your programme leadership on delivery, but the hiring, cover and performance sit with us.
Faster than hiring. The specialists come from a team that already works in the sector, so there is no recruitment cycle to run first.
The unit winds down with it. That is the point of embedded capacity rather than permanent headcount on a time-bound grant.
