This is an opportunity for a Project Manager who enjoys being at the heart of the business. You won't be managing the same type of project day in, day out, this isn't a traditional Project Manager position.

Your projects could span retail operations, people and HR, technology rollouts, new food and product ranges, customer initiatives, process improvements, business change and much more.

You'll work across multiple functions, bringing teams together, managing complex stakeholders and making sure projects move from initial concept through to successful delivery.

What you'll be doing:

• Leading a varied portfolio of projects across different areas of the business
• Working closely with senior stakeholders and cross-functional teams
• Managing projects across retail operations, people, technology, product and business change
• Creating clear project plans, managing risks, dependencies, budgets and timelines

• Working with teams across the organisation to ensure successful implementation
• Helping shape and deliver new initiatives in a fast-moving, customer-focused environment

What we're looking for:

We're looking for a well-rounded Project Manager who has experience operating in a large, complex retail, hospitality or similarly fast-paced consumer environment.

You'll need to demonstrate genuine experience of delivering projects across multiple business functions. We're not looking for someone whose experience has been limited to IT or technology projects.

You'll bring:

• Proven experience as a Project Manager within a large-scale retail, hospitality or consumer-facing business
• Experience delivering projects across multiple functions or divisions
• Strong stakeholder management skills, including experience working with senior leadership
• A track record of delivering complex projects from concept through to implementation
• Experience with recognised project methodologies such as PRINCE2, Agile, Scrum or similar
• Excellent organisation, planning and problem-solving skills
• The ability to manage competing priorities and work effectively in a fast-changing environment
• A pragmatic and collaborative approach, with the confidence to challenge and influence when required

The opportunity:

This is an excellent opportunity for a Project Manager who wants variety, visibility and the chance to work on projects that genuinely influence how a major retail business operates, while benefiting from a flexible hybrid working environment.

If you're a Project Manager currently working in retail or hospitality in a complex, high-volume consumer environment and you've built a broad career delivering projects across different parts of a business, we'd love to hear from you.
