HorizonX is looking for an experienced Technical Project Manager to lead the end-to-end delivery of complex ICT projects involving artificial intelligence, data, cloud and modern software engineering. You will help enterprise clients move from strategy and experimentation into secure, scalable and measurable production outcomes. You will be accountable for planning, organising, directing, controlling and coordinating project delivery, owning project scope, schedules, budgets, resources, priorities, risks, governance, milestones, deliverables and acceptance. You will bring sufficient technical understanding to manage AI, data, cloud and modern engineering projects and work credibly with technical specialists, and act as a trusted client partner who brings structure to ambiguity, communicates clearly, identifies delivery risks early and keeps multidisciplinary teams aligned around agreed outcomes.

Key responsibilities

• Plan and manage the end-to-end delivery of ICT projects involving AI, data, cloud, enterprise integration and modern digital platforms from initiation through implementation, transition and closure.
• Define, maintain and communicate project scope, objectives, schedules, milestones, budgets, resource plans, deliverables, dependencies and acceptance criteria.
• Organise and coordinate multidisciplinary project teams, including architects, engineers, data specialists, analysts, testers, vendors and client stakeholders; allocate and prioritise activities and clarify delivery responsibilities.
• Monitor project progress, expenditure, resource utilisation, quality and delivery performance against approved plans, and implement corrective actions when required.
• Identify and manage project risks, issues, assumptions, dependencies and constraints, and control proposed changes by assessing their impact on schedule, cost, resources, quality and delivery risk.
• Establish and operate effective project governance, decision-making forums, status reporting, stakeholder communications, project records and escalation pathways.
• Facilitate project discovery, planning, status reviews, steering meetings and Agile or hybrid delivery ceremonies required to drive decisions and maintain delivery momentum.
• Coordinate architecture, data, security, privacy, testing, quality assurance and responsible AI activities with the relevant technical specialists, ensuring technical dependencies and non-functional requirements are addressed within the project plan.
• Manage delivery against the relevant statement of work, approved budget and agreed milestones, and provide transparent visibility of scope variance, contractual commitments and required decisions.
• Coordinate release planning, production readiness, implementation, cutover, post-go-live stabilisation, operational handover, acceptance, benefits review, lessons learned and project closure.
