• Strong financial and project control skills, with demonstrated ability to manage budgets, track costs, and schedule delivery using methodology frameworks (Agile, Waterfall).
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with a track record of collaborating across diverse cross‑functional teams, cultures, and external vendors.
• Proficiency with modern project management tools, such as Smartsheet, Jira, Asana, or Salesforce for coordination and reporting.

• Vendor or platform certifications in physical security technologies (Genetec, Axis, Software House, or OpenPath).
• Familiarity with EMEA compliance and security standards, such as BS EN 50133 or ISO 27001.
• A degree or equivalent qualification in Project Management, Engineering, Business, or a related discipline.
