This role is dedicated to working closely with a key strategic account, requiring someone who is organised, resilient, and confident engaging with stakeholders at all levels.

You’ll take ownership of end-to-end project delivery—ensuring infrastructure projects, particularly in network visibility and monitoring, are completed on time, to scope, and within budget. A background in server or network infrastructure is highly desirable, along with the ability to lead cross-functional teams and drive stakeholder communication across complex engagements.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead planning sessions and manage timelines, budgets, resource allocation, and customer expectations across concurrent projects.
• Identify and mitigate risks, proactively addressing issues to prevent project delays.
• Own and lead project meetings and reporting, including regular updates and RAID (Risks, Assumptions, Issues, Dependencies) tracking.
• Produce weekly progress summaries highlighting milestones, blockers, and KPIs.
• Maintain accurate and well-organised documentation, distinguishing clearly between internal and client-facing materials.
• Conduct post-project reviews, gathering feedback to support continuous improvement.

Essential

• A recognised Project Management qualification (e.g. PRINCE2, PMP).
• Strong track record of successfully delivering multiple concurrent IT infrastructure projects.
• Exceptional organisational skills with a detail-oriented approach.
• Strong written and verbal communication abilities.
• Demonstrated budget ownership and financial accountability.
• Experience leading cross-functional teams and managing internal/external stakeholders.

Desirable

• Two or more years of experience managing IT projects, ideally with exposure to network or infrastructure solutions.
• Experience with RAID management.
• Familiarity with agile frameworks; Scrum Master certification is a plus.
• Skilled in using project management tools (e.g., MS Project, Jira, or equivalent).
• Strong analytical and problem-solving capabilities.

Key Competencies

• Excellent communicator, capable of translating technical concepts for non-technical stakeholders.
• Calm under pressure, with a solution-focused mindset.
• Collaborative and adaptable, with strong interpersonal skills.
• High levels of initiative and personal accountability.
• Effective at managing time and priorities in fast-paced environments.
