IT Project Manager

At National Grid, we keep people connected and society moving. But it’s so much more than that. National Grid provides the environment to make it happen. As we build momentum in the energy transition for all, we don’t plan on leaving any of our customers in the dark. So, join us as an IT Project Manager, and find your superpower.

National Grid is hiring an IT Project Manager to join our Technology team. This role is based in Warwick and operates under a hybrid working model.

You’ll play a key role in leading the successful delivery of IT projects, ensuring they are completed on time, within scope, and aligned to business objectives, supporting critical operations across our enterprise.

About The Role

This is an exciting opportunity to play a pivotal role in delivering high-impact IT and Digital projects that support critical business operations across both the UK and US. You’ll take ownership of end-to-end delivery, leading initiatives from initial concept and planning through to successful execution and realisation of business value.

Operating in a fast-paced, complex environment, you’ll work across multiple stakeholder groups and supplier partners, ensuring alignment at every stage of the project lifecycle. You’ll be responsible for navigating competing priorities, managing risk, and maintaining strong governance, all while keeping delivery on track and focused on outcomes that truly matter to the business.

What You'll Do

Project Delivery & Control

Lead end-to-end project delivery — from initial idea through to successful deployment and closure
Build and maintain clear, actionable plans, timelines, milestones, and deliverables
Keep delivery on track by actively managing scope, timelines, budget, and quality
Take full ownership of RAID (risks, issues, actions, dependencies) and critical integration points
Use data, insights, and performance metrics to drive smarter, faster decisions

Governance & Assurance

Ensure robust governance by applying frameworks and stage-gate controls throughout delivery
Provide clear, confident updates to governance forums and senior stakeholders
Proactively identify and escalate risks, issues, and changes to keep projects moving
Maintain alignment with architecture, security, procurement, and quality standards

Financial & Commercial Management

Own project financials — managing budgets, forecasts, and cost control with precision
Ensure accurate financial tracking, reporting, and accountability at every stage
Align spend to approved funding and planned outcomes
Manage supplier commercials, ensuring strong cost performance and value delivery

Stakeholder Engagement & Business Alignment

Build strong relationships across business, IT, and external partners
Align delivery with strategic priorities, business demand, and technology roadmaps
Communicate progress, risks, and key decisions with clarity and impact
Ensure every project delivers measurable business value and outcomes

Supplier & Global Delivery

Lead and manage third-party suppliers to deliver against contractual commitments
Hold partners accountable for scope, quality, cost, and timelines
Coordinate delivery across UK, US, and global teams in a fast-paced environment
Seamlessly manage dependencies across teams, suppliers, and regions

Delivery Excellence & Continuous Improvement

Deliver through a hybrid model, blending structured governance with Agile practices
Collaborate closely with product, engineering, and business teams
Drive incremental, release-based delivery to maximise value early and often
Ensure smooth implementation, adoption, and transition into service
Champion continuous improvement to enhance delivery effectiveness and flow

About You

You’re a confident, delivery-focused professional who thrives in complex environments and knows how to turn ambition into action. You bring energy, influence, and commercial awareness to everything you do, building strong relationships and delivering meaningful outcomes that make a real difference.

What you’ll bring:

A proven ability to lead delivery across cross-functional, complex programmes, navigating ambiguity with confidence
Strong stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence and build trust at all levels of the organisation
Sound commercial, financial, and governance judgement, enabling smart, informed decision-making
Experience operating in global, regulated environments, with a clear understanding of structure, risk, and compliance

Your experience:

A track record of delivering IT or digital projects using structured and hybrid Agile approaches
Hands-on experience delivering incremental, release-based outcomes, driving continuous value through Agile methodologies
Proven success managing complex, multi-supplier environments and handling cross-system dependencies
Strong financial management and performance tracking capability, using metrics to drive delivery improvements and outcomes
Relevant certifications such as PRINCE2, PMP, PSM, CSM, SAFe, or equivalent real-world experience

What You'll get

Competitive Salary: circa £48,000 – £57,000 per annum (based on capability, and experience)

Additional benefits:

A competitive contributory pension scheme where we will double match your contribution to a maximum company contribution of 12%
You will receive a bonus based on personal and company performance
Flexible benefits such as a cycle scheme, share incentive plan, technology schemes
Access to apps such as digital GP service for round the clock access to GP video consultations and NHS repeat prescriptions, wellbeing app to support your health and fitness
