Demonstrable experience managing medium to large-scale technical projects across infrastructure, cloud, applications, data, or digital transformation domains.
Strong experience working with third-party delivery partners and managing supplier relationships.
Proven ability to lead cross-functional project teams and coordinate diverse stakeholder groups.
Excellent communication and presentation skills, including experience presenting to senior leadership and steering committees.
Strong commercial awareness and experience managing project budgets and financial reporting.
Practical experience of hybrid delivery methodologies.
Strong risk, issue, dependency, and change management capabilities.
Experience using project management and collaboration tools including Microsoft Project, Azure DevOps and the Microsoft 365 suite.

Desirable

Project Management Professional (PMP), PRINCE2 Practitioner, APM PMQ, or equivalent qualification.
Experience within consumer goods, manufacturing, supply chain, or global enterprise environments.
Knowledge of cloud platforms such as Microsoft Azure.
Experience delivering technology transformation, migration, or digital change programmes.
