Project Manager – Manchester (Hybrid) – £70k
This isn’t a role for someone who just updates status reports.
It’s for a proper delivery Project Manager who can take ownership when things are complex, pressured and visible.
You’ll be joining a FinTech business with a strong product and engineering team that’s growing quickly and winning new work. The challenge now is making sure delivery scales properly.
They’re early in building out a PMO, so this is about bringing the right structure and governance to delivery — without creating bureaucracy.
What you’ll be responsible for
• Owning delivery end-to-end – scope, plan, timelines, budget and quality
• Managing senior stakeholders across business, tech and third parties
• Creating delivery governance that actually works (RAID, reporting, escalation)
• Navigating complex dependencies and pressured delivery environments
Experience that really matters
• Proven delivery ownership in FinTech or regulated financial services
• Experience working with insurance companies or insurance customers is essential
• Delivery of transactional or platform-based products
• Comfortable when priorities shift and things aren’t perfectly defined
Stronger candidates will also have
• Delivered API integrations or system migrations
• Experience working in regulated environments
• Helped shape or mature a PMO / delivery function
If you’re used to being trusted with delivery that actually matters to the business, this will land well.
