Senior Project Manager - Technology

Based at either Manchester Airport, London Stansted Airport or East Midlands Airport.

Permanent role with flexible/hybrid working for a better work/life balance.

We are proud to be a diverse employer, and we welcome candidates from all backgrounds.

At MAG, we provide the airport facilities and travel services that people need to connect with the world. As the largest UK owned airport operator, we serve over 60 million passengers a year from Manchester, London Stansted, and East Midlands Airports. With over 270 destinations across the globe, our businesses not only bring people together but also support the prosperity of the regions in which we operate. Sustainability is one of our core values, and it shapes everything we do. We're committed to protecting the environment and supporting our local communities. Our programmes include airport and airline decarbonisation, comprehensive education, skills and employment support, and community engagement initiatives including volunteering opportunities.

At MAG, we recognise creating a first-class journey for our customers starts by creating a first-class career journey for our colleagues and we are committed to building inclusive environments in which our people can thrive.

You’ll also have access to some great benefits including:

• Bonus scheme
• 10% company contribution pension
• Car allowance
• Private medical scheme
• 25 days holiday plus bank holidays (plus the ability to buy additional days)
• Free parking / subsidised public transport
• Huge range of company discounts
• 2 volunteering days per year
• Free Virtual GP service, available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week
• Care Concierge service

The role involves managing the delivery of a portfolio of projects for all 3 airports as part of the Technology Change organisation. Your team will consist of a small group of project managers, a mix of employees and contractors. Initially focused on Airfield and Enterprise product areas, this may change over time depending on demand and business needs. You’ll deliver projects as well as being an active member of the Technology Change leadership team, developing ongoing relationships with key stakeholders within Technology and airport operations; identifying problem areas and driving process improvements; mentoring and coaching your team as well as acting as a leadership role model for the wider Technology organisation.

What will make you successful in the role? You’ll have proven senior PM experience ideally with certification in PRINCE2/PMP/APM, within large, complex business change and transformation environments (not necessarily in airports or aviation) alongside previous experience in matrix management within large, complex organisations, demonstrating your ability to lead and coordinate cross-functional teams effectively. You’ll have proven budget management and organisation skills. You’ll also be a proven communicator and have experience of building relationships with stakeholders whilst also challenging as and when needed.

We’re building something brilliant at MAG: a diverse team of Journey Makers who share our values and want to make a difference. We’re on a mission to be number one in our industry, and that takes talent in all its forms. With so many exciting roles across our airports and businesses, there’s space for your unique strengths to shine. Whether this is your first role or your next big step, we want to hear from you – even if you don’t think you tick every box. What matters most is what you bring.

We’re proud to be a Disability Confident employer. If you need any adjustments to support your application or interview, just let us know. We’re committed to helping you perform at your best.

At MAG, every journey matters. Our Colleague Communities play a big part in that: Women’s Network, Embrace (Race & Ethnicity), Fly with Pride (LGBTQIA+), Mind Matters (Mental Health), PACT (Parents & Carers), RespectABILITY (Disability & Neurodiversity), and the CAVU Global ID&E Affinity Group.
