Job description

We are seeking an experienced Senior Project Manager to lead the planning and delivery of complex, high-impact projects from initiation through to completion. You will be responsible for defining project scope, objectives, deliverables, timelines and success measures, ensuring that projects are delivered on time, within budget and to the required quality standards. The role will involve coordinating cross-functional teams, managing dependencies and maintaining clear communication with internal and external stakeholders.

You will establish robust project governance, reporting and risk management processes, while identifying opportunities to improve delivery performance. Key responsibilities include developing detailed project plans, budgets and resource forecasts; monitoring progress against milestones; managing change requests; resolving issues; and providing accurate, timely status updates to senior stakeholders. You will also oversee project documentation, procurement activity and supplier relationships where required, ensuring compliance with relevant policies, standards and regulatory requirements. A strong focus on benefits realisation, continuous improvement and customer outcomes will be essential.

The successful candidate will have substantial experience managing large-scale or strategically important projects, ideally within a complex, fast-paced environment. You will be confident working across multiple teams and able to influence decisions at all levels through clear communication, sound judgement and effective negotiation. Experience with recognised project management methodologies and tools is required, along with strong financial, risk and resource management skills. A formal project management qualification, such as PRINCE2, PMP or an equivalent, would be advantageous. You should be organised, commercially aware and comfortable managing competing priorities while maintaining a collaborative and delivery-focused approach.
