Your working arrangements will be flexible, based on the needs of the role, our customers and your preferences (agreed with your manager). Our offices are in Seaham and Bishop Auckland, and this role will require an on-site presence for part of the week.

As a collaborative and service‑focused partner, the Project Manager plays a vital role in enabling effective change and fostering a culture of continuous improvement, including a strong emphasis on customer needs and engagement.
The role champions consistent project management practices, blending traditional methodologies with Agile principles to achieve the right balance of structure, flexibility, and customer-focus. The Project Manager also supports colleagues by coaching, guiding and promoting best practice, with a particular emphasis on Agile ways of working.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Deliver high‑quality project management support, working collaboratively to create a high‑performing team environment.
- Define and manage project scope, objectives, plans, schedules, budgets, dependencies and deliverables, ensuring regular delivery of value and accurate tracking and reporting.
- Utilise expertise to manage the end‑to‑end delivery of the finance and P2P system replacement project, ensuring alignment with organisational goals.
- Engage senior leaders and stakeholders to clarify requirements, agree timelines and confirm resource and cost implications.
