Job Role

As the Project Manager, you’ll be responsible for the overall management and delivery of all IT projects, initiatives and workstreams that span across the whole business, across a number of disciplines but with a slight bias towards Software Development projects.

You’ll be working with a range of stakeholders, senior management and the wider IT team to capture, understand and document requirements, and then manage these through the various stages of the SDLC, implementation and BAU, predominantly using Agile / Scrum methodologies.

Requirements & Experience

Experience wise, you will need to be able to understand the SDLC models, specifically what the activities are to manage a software development project / integration / implementation.

This role would suit someone with direct working knowledge and experience within Agile project management, specifically across software development projects. You’ll need to be familiar with the SDLC models  and Scrum methodologies too, with strong stakeholder management skills.
