One of my clients, a reputable Bank, is looking to hire a Project Manager to work on a key IT migration programme in their Edinburgh location. The team have been tasked in spearheading the migration of various customer policies from an existing system to a third party offering, and they are looking for an IT Change Project Manager to help lead everything but the physical migration itself (so the ecosystem around the physical migration).

You will be liaising with stakeholders and vendors as well as taking ownership of the processes around the migration, including the release process (tracking/testing etc) and managing the backlog for the programme.

To be right for this role, you will need a background in the following:

  • IT Project Management in another Bank and in a large Change environment
  • Experience working with third parties.
  • Previous end-to-end project management on an IT release.
  • Anyone with FNZ knowledge/experience would be massively advantageous.

This role will be a mixture of working in the Edinburgh office (1-2 times a week) with the rest being remote. It's a 6-month contract with a view to extending thereafter. Please note that this is a PAYE contract going through an Umbrella company. The rate quoted is the Umbrella rate.
