PMO Career Hour / Job Hunting
2026-02-04 12:00 - 13:00 | https://houseofpmo.com/event/pmo-career-hour-job-hunting/
PMO Career Hour is a small, coaching-circle style session for members – this month the focus is job hunting.
PMO people who are job hunting right now, thinking about a move, or simply wanting to feel more confident about what the market is asking for. We’ll kick off with a short, practical share from House of PMO – a tool, template, or approach you can actually use (think CV focus, search strategy, LinkedIn tweaks, interview prep, or how to talk about PMO value without sounding generic).
After that, it turns into a guided group discussion. You’ll hear what other members have tried, what’s worked, what hasn’t, and the little things that made a difference – from applications and recruiters, to interviews, to negotiating and choosing the right role. It’s a supportive space to sense-check ideas, swap tips worth stealing, and leave with a few clear next steps. Come to listen, contribute, or both – no pressure either way.

From Summit to Action: Blue Light PMO Report Launch
2026-02-13 12:00 - 13:00 | https://houseofpmo.com/event/from-summit-to-action-blue-light-pmo-report-launch/
The Blue Light PMO Summit brought together PMO professionals across policing, fire & rescue, ambulance, and the NHS to share what’s really happening on the ground – the pressure, the realities, and the workarounds that actually help. This launch event marks the release of the completed report, pulling together the most repeated challenge themes and the practical “what works / what doesn’t” insights from the discussions.
Join us for a fast-paced walkthrough of the headline findings – including the big recurring pain points like executive sponsorship, becoming a true strategic partner (not “admin”), capability gaps, prioritisation overload, and change fatigue and crucially what PMOs can do next with limited time and stretched capacity.
You’ll leave with:

A clear, shared picture of the challenges PMOs are facing across the blue light sector (so you can sanity-check your own reality)
Practical actions you can try immediately (without waiting for a perfect re-org)
Language you can reuse with senior leaders to get traction and sponsorship

This is for PMO professionals currently working within the emergency services sector – although many other PMO people working in other sectors will certainly take a lot from this session and the report. Please feel free to join us, regardless of where you’re working.
Save your place now and get the report link first (plus the one-page senior leader briefing you can forward internally!)
If you work in a PMO supporting emergency services, bring one colleague too – you’ll get more momentum when two of you hear the same messages at the same time.

PMO Skills: Monitoring
2026-02-16 12:00 - 13:00 | https://houseofpmo.com/event/pmo-skills-monitoring/
Within the PMO Competency Framework – alongside competences, knowledge and behaviour – there are the unpinning skills required in PMO work.
In this session we focus on one particular skill – monitoring.
We often use the term alongside reporting – monitoring and reporting – where a PMO keeps an ongoing, structured watch on project, programme or portfolio delivery so you can see how delivery is progressing; spot changes early and provide support and action where required.
In practice, monitoring usually includes:

Tracking progress vs plan: milestones, deliverables, schedule, dependencies.
Watching forecast vs actuals: cost, effort, resource/capacity, benefits (where relevant).
Following risks, issues, and decisions: what’s new, what’s escalating, what’s stuck.
Checking delivery health signals: quality, scope stability, change volume, blockers, team confidence.
Looking for patterns: trends across projects/programmes (not just one status point).
Triggering action: clarifying, escalating, re-planning, or getting support – monitoring isn’t passive.

In this webinar we’ll focus on the skill Monitor. We’ll learn more about what monitoring is and the actual role you’ll carry out – predominantly as a PMO Administrator and/or PMO Analyst. We’ll get into the practical and share some real life examples.
