Description:
Technical Project Manager, SaaS, Project Delivery, Stakeholder Management, 6 month FTC, Remote
Project Manager required to work for a Professional Services business based remotely. However, there may be some travel to Europe on the odd occasion. All travel expenses will be paid for this role and this is initially a 6 month FTC but is highly likely to develop into a permanent role. You should know fairly quickly into the role if this is to be the case or not.
We need an experienced Project Manager who has come from a Professional Services background ideally (Legal / Law, Insurance, Accountancy etc). Failing that, it has to be the likes of Banking or Blue-Chip / Reputable businesses. You will have EXTENSIVE Third Party Management / Vendor Management experience and you will have delivered Projects within SaaS / Software Delivery / Software Development / Application Development. Even someone from a military background who has moved into a Technical Project Management role would also be considered.
Any SaaS Projects delivered within an Audit & Assurance environment with heavy Compliance & Governance would also be acceptable.
Tooling is the key workstream as all other workstreams are driven from tooling activities.
