Role Description
We have an exciting opportunity for a Project Manager who can apply the principles of professional project management to deliver projects for our IT platforms across our complex international organisation.

You will have experience of delivering projects, ideally in a mixed methodology environment, providing a consistent, reliable service to business sponsors, stakeholders and your colleagues. In this role you will be responsible for the day-to-day management of project(s), coordinating activities and deliveries that span technology and operational teams, often under the pace and confidentiality that M&A activity demands. You will be comfortable with complexity and will have the aptitude and contextual perspective to understand how multiple parts work together.

You will understand the importance of setting clear objectives and agreeing a set of key results to demonstrate the success of outcomes and initiatives, and ensuring they are met. Crucially, you will be a great communicator – you’ll be able to communicate through metrics, showcases and presentations, and tailor messages appropriately for the target audience, whether discussing project health with the IT team or presenting at steering groups.
