Stop guessing which project role you're ready for.
Talent2Role Project & Programme Management reads your projects, programmes, certifications and
delivery experience, maps them against all 42 work roles of the Project & Programme Management
Workforce Framework — project, programme, portfolio, agile, controls, PMO, change and commercial —
and shows you exactly which competencies you already evidence, which ones you're missing, and the
shortest credible path to the role you want.

The problem
Project management has more standards than any profession. Careers use none of them.
PMBOK, PRINCE2, APM, IPMA, ISO 21502, MSP, Scrum and SAFe each describe part of the profession in
their own words — and a "Senior Project Manager", a "Delivery Manager" and a "Release Train
Engineer" share half their competencies and none of their vocabulary. The Project & Programme
Management Workforce Framework rebuilds all of them in one structure: 42 work roles, 22 competency
areas, 705 statements with stable IDs.
Careers are still assessed from a certificate logo
A hiring desk sees PMP, PRINCE2, a job title and a list of tools. It cannot see what the person can actually do — or how far they are from the programme, portfolio or controls role they want next.
42work roles
22competency areas
705TKS statements

Titles and certificates carry half the signal
"Project Manager" might mean running a P6 schedule on a refinery, facilitating sprints for a fintech or steering a £40m programme board. A PMP proves the exam — not the commercial, controls and change competencies the next role actually runs on.
What breaks today
"Get some programme exposure" isn't a plan
Which knowledge statements, in what order, costing how many weeks, moving your readiness by how much? Career advice stops exactly where the useful detail starts.
What breaks today
Keyword matching misses competence
An ATS compares strings. It cannot tell that "ran the RAID log and steerco" and "managed risks, issues and dependencies and reported by exception to the project board" describe the same PPMWF competencies.
What breaks today
Project to portfolio
One competency graph for the whole delivery career.
The same framework describes the project manager, the scrum master, the planner, the PMO, the business change manager and the commercial team. That is what makes the moves between them plannable.
Project delivery
Project managers, IT and construction project managers, coordinators, directors of major projects — predictive, agile and hybrid.
PD — 7 roles
Programme, portfolio & agile
Programme and portfolio managers, transformation directors, SROs, scrum masters, agile coaches, release train engineers, product owners and delivery managers.
PG · AG — 12 roles
Controls, PMO & assurance
Planners, cost engineers, earned-value and risk specialists, document controllers, PMO analysts and managers, gateway reviewers and resource managers.
PC · PO — 13 roles
Change, benefits & commercial
Business change managers, benefits managers, business analysts, engagement leads, commercial and contract managers, procurement, claims and supplier delivery.
BC · CM — 10 roles

3
Analyse
Scored against all 42 work roles. Readiness, matched statements, and every gap listed by ID.
4
Plan
Gaps become a sequenced curriculum with effort estimates and the readiness impact of each theme.
5
Prove
Close gaps, track readiness climbing, and score real job adverts before you apply.
The framework
Why one framework across PMBOK, PRINCE2 and agile, and what that actually buys you
The profession's standards are excellent and incompatible: PMBOK 7 and the PMI standards, ISO
21502, PRINCE2, MSP and MoP, the APM Body of Knowledge, IPMA's ICB4, the Scrum Guide, SAFe, the
AACE cost-engineering practices, Prosci and BABOK. The Project & Programme Management Workforce
Framework keeps each one's authority over its own domain and rebuilds them in the NIST NICE structure
of categories, work roles, competency areas and TKS statements — one vocabulary from project
coordinator to portfolio director.
What a competency statement looks like
PM-K1015Knowledge of work breakdown structures (ISO 21511): decomposition rules, the 100% rule, work packages, control accounts and the WBS dictionary.
PM-S1004Skill in running integrated change control — assessing impact across scope, schedule, cost, risk and benefits before a decision.
PM-S1122Skill in building and maintaining a benefits map from strategic objectives through outcomes to project outputs.
Every statement has a stable ID. That is what makes gap analysis possible: your CV either
evidences PM-S1122 or it doesn't, and
if it doesn't, that is a concrete thing to go and learn — not a vague instruction to
"get some benefits-management exposure".
Who it's for
Four people, one competency graph
The same engine answers a different question depending on who is asking it.
Project professionals
Project managers, planners, PMO analysts and scrum masters who want the next role — senior PM, programme manager, controls lead, RTE.

What exactly is missing beyond the certificate?
How long to close it?

Engineers, analysts, consultants and operations managers who have run projects without the title — and want to make it the job.
Which delivery roles fit what I've done?
What's the shortest bridge?
PMP, PRINCE2, APM or agile — which actually matters?
PMOs and delivery leaders
You have to evidence delivery capability — to the board, to assurance, to clients — and justify a training budget with something defensible.
Where is the portfolio thin?
What should we hire vs. train?
