What you'll be doing:

* Lead multi-disciplinary project teams (up to 30 resources), including third-party suppliers and subcontractors

* Present complex information clearly to technical and non-technical stakeholders, support decision-making and manage expectations
* Support customer acceptance, service transition and successful project closure
* Monitor performance, embed delivery best practices, and drive continuous improvement through lessons learned
* Manage budgets, forecasting, accruals, revenue/costs and margins while maintaining contractual compliance

What you'll bring:
* Proven Senior Project Manager background, with 6-10 years' project management experience delivering medium-sized projects
* Track record delivering projects valued between £2m and £5m
* Strong governance, financial, stakeholder and leadership capability, with the ability to coach and mentor teams
* Experience across multiple workstreams, external dependencies and diverse technology environments
* Confident risk, issue and budget management, including change control
* Excellent communication, negotiation and problem-solving skills
* Customer-facing experience and a clear, structured approach to delivery
* Willingness to travel as required

Additional information:
