• Foster transparency and collaboration by openly sharing insights, challenges, and learnings.

Requirements

• A clear understanding of project management value and experience driving company-wide goals through structured planning and execution.
• Proven ability to align project goals with organisational strategy.
• Strong financial acumen, including budget planning, forecasting, and performance tracking.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills adaptable across engineering teams and executive leadership.
• Experience building processes, selecting tools, and driving results across a tech organisation.
• Minimum 3 years’ experience as a project manager, with formal training (Agile, PMP, Prince2, Scrum, Waterfall, etc.).
• Full project lifecycle experience: requirements, planning, execution, stakeholder communication, and retrospectives.
• Ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously with strong judgment and decision-making capabilities.
• Good foundational understanding of IT systems, including service management, infrastructure, security, networking, AV, messaging, and telephony.
• Willingness to travel (Europe) as needed, including occasional weekend work.
• Experience delivering infrastructure projects in a media, broadcast, or technology environment is a strong advantage.
