Job Description:

Contract Project Manager – Retail Technology / Systems Integration

Up to £600/day (Inside IR35)

No option for relocation, only people who are commutable to Northampton.

6‑month initial contract

The Opportunity

We’re supporting a well‑known UK business with a large‑scale retail estate looking to bring in a delivery‑focused Project Manager to own two key workstreams within their technology landscape.

This is not a passive governance role. They need someone who can step in, take ownership, and drive delivery across both integration and early‑stage platform work in a live operational environment.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Leading rollout of an SMS communication solution across a nationwide retail estate
  • Managing supplier delivery and coordinating integration into existing systems
  • Owning a new leasing platform initiative at RFP stage
  • Working with internal stakeholders and vendors to shape requirements and delivery approach
  • Driving timelines, managing risks, and keeping both workstreams moving at pace

What We’re Looking For

  • Proven experience delivering retail or multi‑site technology programmes
  • Strong background in systems integration and supplier management
  • Comfortable running multiple workstreams simultaneously
  • Experience across full lifecycle delivery (RFP → implementation → rollout)
  • Confident working in fast‑paced, operational environments

The Environment

You’ll be working in a hands‑on delivery role where visibility and ownership are key. The team needs someone who can operate independently, engage senior stakeholders, and keep momentum without constant direction.
