• Project documentation control, with an ability to provide a valuable input to project procedures and processes
• Liaising with customers, suppliers and internal departments on a regular basis to execute project deliverables
• Forecasting of internal resource capacity by tracking the progress of projects across the portfolio using an internal resource allocation system
• Providing added value to existing customer relationships
• Working closely with Account Managers, to ensure the correct number of professional service days are allocated to projects
• Following KHIPU reporting, escalation and change management control procedures
• Ensuring an ongoing quality of service, delivery and adherence to agreed SLAs

Project Manager - You

• 2 - 3 years\' experience in a similar role is essential
• Knowledge and experience with managing Network IT projects is essential
• Experience and knowledge of KHIPU product portfolio, or similar, would be desirable.
• The ability to provide effective and productive stakeholder management
• Extremely organised, sub-team management and leadership skills
• Excellent communication skills - both written and verbal, and a eye for details
• Ability to work well under pressure, managing multiple projects with effective prioritisation techniques
• A flexible approach to delivering against tight deadlines in a challenging environment
• Able to drive and with a full UK driving licence, to travel to our customer locations within the UK as necessary
• Knowledge of Microsoft Project or similar
• Recognised Project Management qualification, such as Prince II is desirable.

Company Benefits

• Competitive salary, dependant on experience + car allowance
• 26 days' annual leave entitlement, rising with service
