- Posted: 13/09/2016
The role: We are looking for a Project Manager to join a team who will look after all IT Systems projects that fall outside of software development. This includes infrastructure, networking, helpdesk and desktop projects. The Project Manager will manage both internal and client‑driven projects across the UK, primarily office‑based with occasional ad‑hoc UK travel.
Working within a Prince II environment is essential; projects will largely adopt this methodology. Real‑world experience is a must.
These Retail IT projects can have a lifespan of 1–6 months, potentially longer but typically require quick turnaround rather than 2–3 years. Multiple projects may run concurrently.
Key responsibilities include managing client expectations, coordinating and delivering on project milestones, and leading a team. Strong communication skills and the ability to work independently are essential.
Qualifications
- Experience managing Retail IT Systems projects.
- Familiarity with Prince II methodology.
- Strong project management and leadership skills.
- Excellent communication and stakeholder management.
Benefits
Competitive base salary £40,000 – £45,000, potential additional remuneration, modern office facilities, structured career path, and benefits package.
Candidates of all ages and backgrounds will be considered for this role.
