A high-growth consumer connectivity business in Manchester is looking for an experienced Contract Project Manager to take full ownership of delivery across a busy and expanding project portfolio.
The business is in a strong growth phase - adding new consumer products and running multiple concurrent internal projects.
This is not a coordination role. They need someone who owns their workstreams, drives accountability across the business, and gets things done without needing managing.
What you will be doing
- Take full ownership of a broad project portfolio spanning new product launches, internal change, and operational improvement
- Manage multiple concurrent workstreams in a fast-moving, resource-light environment
- Drive accountability across senior stakeholders - chase actions, hold people to commitments, keep delivery moving
- Work closely with the CEO, CTO, and senior management team on a day-to-day basis
What we are looking for
- Proven strong track record delivering complex projects in a telco, broadband, or connectivity environment – this is essential
- Experience managing large-scale customer or data migrations – over 100,000 of customers, multi-product, multi-system
- Comfortable managing multiple projects simultaneously and pivoting quickly as priorities shift
- Formal qualification - PRINCE2, APM or equivalent
- Not someone who tracks - someone who delivers
The detail
- Up to £500/day outside IR35
- Manchester-based - in office aligned to senior management team days, otherwise flexible
- ASAP start - the project portfolio is live and moving
- Rolling contract with a genuine route to perm for the right person if interested
