Job Title: Project Manager (Integrator). Location: Bristol, London, or Halifax (Hybrid - 2 days onsite/week). Contract Length: 12 months (with potential for extension). Salary: 74,000 + 5% bonus or competitive umbrella day rate.

As our Project Manager (Integrator), you will play a pivotal role in ensuring smooth collaboration between our Lab and external stakeholders, including other labs, platforms, Group Executive Functions, and third parties. Your primary focus will be on coordinating dependencies and managing high-risk implementations, driving our projects to successful completion.

• Collaborate with the Product Owner to develop the sequence for integration-related tasks aligned with the Lab backlog.
• Catalogue and manage dependencies between the Lab and other teams, ensuring seamless interlock.
• Identify and resolve blockers to delivery, escalating issues to product owners and lab leadership when necessary.
• Act as the main interface between suppliers (3rd parties) and key business stakeholders.
• Manage complex, high-risk implementations requiring integration across multiple parties for safe delivery.
• Coordinate the integration process and implementation events across shared infrastructure (e.g., Upgrading the Mainframe).

You will be a key player in our agile team, utilising agile methods and tools to achieve outstanding results. Your adaptability and proactive approach will set the tone for effective collaboration, ensuring that we deliver at pace while maintaining quality.

Building positive relationships is vital. You'll independently manage stakeholder expectations through regular updates on work progress and potential risks. Your ability to communicate effectively will foster trust and collaboration among all parties involved.

With strong knowledge of delivery methodologies and product road maps, you'll identify risks and dependencies that could jeopardise our goals. Prepare and analyse management reports and mitigation plans to keep everyone on track and informed.

• Proven experience in project management, particularly within integration roles.
• Exceptional communication and interpersonal skills to manage diverse stakeholders.
• A solid understanding of Agile methodologies and experience working in an agile environment.
• Strong analytical skills to assess risks and develop effective mitigation strategies.
• A proactive, solution-oriented mindset with the ability to thrive under pressure.
