Its mission is to keep clients' businesses running smoothly through proactive, high-quality IT support and project delivery-driven by collaboration, reliability, and innovation.

Purpose of the Role

The Technical Project Manager will lead infrastructure, cloud, and digital transformation projects, with a strong focus on Azure migration from planning and design through to implementation and post-go-live support.
