Manager It jobs in United Kingdom

Hey there, future changemaker!

At Noda we’re building seamless Open Banking solutions that make payments smarter, faster, and safer. We’re now looking for an IT Project Manager to join our team and help drive the next wave of fintech innovation.

You will be working closely with our core product team. Your initial scope will be 100% focused on project management, but our plan is to slowly transform this position into a product ownership role, so if that\'s the direction you want to grow in - it\'s a perfect match! As a project manager, your main areas of responsibility will be:

• Task prioritization and progress tracking: managing the priority task pool for development and tracking the progress of these tasks.
• Team atmosphere and issue resolution: creating a positive team atmosphere, maintaining it, and addressing team members’ issues.
• Career development support: when necessary, forming development paths for team members in collaboration with the Tech Lead and the department Manager. We believe it\'s crucial to actively support team members whose aspirations align with their responsibilities and benefit the product.
• Streamlining development: tracking the development process, analyzing its current state, identifying inefficiencies and bottlenecks, eliminating ineffective approaches, and addressing staffing shortages or tasks that fall outside the team’s core responsibilities.
• Effective communication: organizing meetings to discuss work-related issues with necessary team members. We emphasize efficient communication - quick matters are solved on Slack, while meetings are reserved for more in-depth discussions.
• Task delegation: delegating tasks and monitoring their completion, especially those that are blocking the team’s progress.

• Minimum 3+ years of experience as an IT Project Manager within financial services, FinTech, or product-driven technology companies.
• Strong knowledge and practical application of Agile methodologies.
• Proven experience leading product teams using Scrum processes and other Agile frameworks.
• Proficiency in project management tools such as Jira, Confluence, or equivalent platforms.
• Hands-on expertise in scope and risk management, data analysis, and informed decision-making.
• Strong problem-solving, organisational, and time management skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities.
• Adaptability and resilience in dynamic and changing environments.
• Excellent communication and leadership skills to align cross-functional teams.
• Customer-focused mindset, ensuring that end-user needs are prioritised in product development and delivery.
• Ability to balance strategic thinking with attention to detail in day-to-day project execution.

• Your Office, Your Rules: remote-first setup with full flexibility - work from home, one of our offices, a café, or while exploring new places. Wherever you feel most productive, that’s your office.
• Keep Growing: your growth is our priority. We cover trainings, courses, and certifications so you can sharpen your skills and stay ahead in your field.
• Strong Connections: distance doesn’t stop us from building great bonds. From virtual hangouts and creative online sessions to local meet-ups and company-wide events, you’ll always feel part of the team.
• All the Gear You Need: we provide the hardware you need and a budget for your home office setup, making sure you’ve got the perfect tools to succeed.
• Time to Recharge: we value balance just as much as results. That’s why we offer plenty of time off to rest, reset, and come back energized.

• Your CV will undergo careful review, and we\'ll update you on the next step in our recruitment journey.
• Get ready for an easy-going introduction call with our recruiter, where you\'ll delve into the heart of our company, product, and team dynamics, while sharing your own experiences and aspirations.
• Should the vibe match and your expectations align, up next will be an engaging interview with the manager or the team lead.
• And if everything clicks, anticipate a thrilling job offer landing in your inbox soon!
