Drive the delivery of impactful technology initiatives as a Technical Project Manager within our Engineering team.

Blending strong project delivery skills with technical insight, you’ll navigate complex environments, manage risks, and guide smart design and delivery decisions.

• Coordinate cross-functional teams across Engineering, Data, InfoSec, IT Operations, Product and the business, ensuring clarity on roles, dependencies and decision-making.
• Manage delivery across complex programs spanning data migrations, CRM enhancements, AI initiatives, digital products and system integrations.
• Proactively manage risks, issues and dependencies, driving timely escalation and resolution to keep delivery on track.
• Facilitate effective delivery rhythms (planning, stand-ups, showcases and retrospectives) to support high-performing, aligned teams.
• Oversee vendor and third-party delivery, ensuring alignment on scope, timelines, commercial considerations and integration readiness.
• Ensure strong governance and operational readiness, including documentation, change control and smooth transition into support.
• Partner with Risk and InfoSec to ensure delivery meets security, regulatory and compliance requirements.
• Continuously improve delivery practices, introducing better ways of working, tools and scalable approaches.
