Job Role
You will own delivery from discovery and planning through to handover, managing mid to high-tier projects with light oversight: scope, timeline, budget, quality, risk, dependencies, customer communication, and delivery outcomes. You will keep projects under control, surface risks early, elevate with options and context, and maintain forward motion.
You will work confidently across both Agile and waterfall delivery, with strong stakeholder management, commercial awareness, attention to detail, and clear, decision-ready communication. You will be confident with stakeholders at all levels, including senior or assertive ones, while staying calm, constructive, and outcome-focused.
You will translate business objectives into clear requirements, priorities, specifications, tickets, and delivery plans, working across customers, internal teams, and external suppliers to manage expectations, resolve issues, influence decisions, and guide delivery towards the right outcome.
