We are looking for someone with:
- Previous experience in an IT Project Manager, Project Coordinator or Technical Project Manager role
- Experience delivering or coordinating multiple projects at the same time
- Strong customer and stakeholder management skills
- Excellent organisation and communication skills
- Ability to take ownership and proactively drive projects forward

Experience across any of the following would be particularly useful:
- Networking
- Firewalls / network security
- LAN / WAN

You do not need to be a network engineer, but you should be technically comfortable enough to understand customer requirements and communicate effectively with technical specialists.
About the Opportunity
You will be joining a specialist technology business working across complex network, cloud and infrastructure environments.
The business delivers consultancy, solution design and managed services, with projects spanning areas such as network modernisation, security, cloud and infrastructure transformation.
There is already a healthy portfolio of live customer work, so the focus of this role will be to bring structure, ownership and momentum to multiple projects and ensure customers receive a consistently strong delivery experience.
