Company & role

A growing Microsoft Partner with deep Azure expertise is hiring an experienced Project Manager to lead the delivery of enterprise-scale cloud transformation programmes. With projects spanning Azure Infrastructure, App Modernisation, Security, and Data, this role sits at the heart of the company’s delivery engine – supporting some of the UK’s most ambitious Azure journeys.

Why This Role Stands Out

• Deliver complex, high-impact Azure programmes for enterprise clients
• Join a consultancy that lives and breathes Microsoft Cloud – no distractions, no dilution
• Be trusted to shape how projects are delivered, not just follow a script
• Enjoy a supportive, remote-first team culture with strong investment in your growth

Key Responsibilities

• Take full ownership of Azure project delivery – from kick-off to close
• Lead project planning, delivery governance, stakeholder management and risk mitigation
• Run customer-facing workshops and act as a key link between technical teams and clients
• Oversee cross-functional delivery across Infrastructure, App Innovation, Security, and Data
• Support pre-sales efforts by helping shape delivery proposals and timelines
• Use the right methodology for the job – Agile, waterfall or hybrid – depending on client need
• Ensure project documentation is clear, complete and always up to date

Ideal Experience

• Proven track record delivering complex enterprise Azure projects, in consultancy or professional services environment
• Experience managing cloud transformation programmes, with a strong focus on Microsoft Azure
• Broad understanding of Azure services, spanning IaaS, PaaS, security, and data platforms
• Skilled in managing senior stakeholders and cross-functional teams
• Comfortable with project governance, financial tracking, RAID logs, and common PM tools (e.g. Azure DevOps, MS Project, Office 365)
• Confident communicator who thrives in fast-paced, client-facing roles
• Delivery certifications such as PRINCE2, PMP, or Agile practitioner are a strong plus

If you’re a delivery leader who knows what it takes to land Azure programmes in enterprise environments – and you want to join a team that will back you to do your best work – this is the opportunity you’ve been waiting for.
