Overview

We work with researchers, institutions, governments, and funders to help knowledge move faster and further. The A&G and STMJ Technology team partners across Elsevier to build digital products that make it easier for researchers to share their work, stay informed, and increase the impact of their research. We also support institutions and funders with tools and insights that help them understand research performance and make better decisions. The role focuses on delivering meaningful outcomes, enabling data-driven research and public impact through well-governed, collaborative project delivery. You will work closely with cross-functional teams to plan, deliver, and embed solutions that create measurable business value and align with Elsevier’s broader technology ecosystem.


Responsibilities

* Define project scope, milestones, risks, and success measures.
* Ensure projects support scalable, sustainable solutions and improve customer experience.
* Track progress, manage dependencies, and adapt plans as needed.
* Partner with product, engineering, data, and business teams to align on objectives and outcomes.
* Communicate progress, risks, and decisions clearly with stakeholders at all levels.
* Foster transparency, shared understanding, and timely decision-making.
* Plan and deliver complex or multi-stream initiatives using Agile or hybrid approaches.
* Coordinate workstreams including technology delivery, change management, operations, and go-to-market activities.
* Manage budgets, forecasts, resourcing, and delivery risks with a focus on value.
* Ensure appropriate governance, reporting, and alignment with organisational standards.
* Identify risks early and implement practical mitigation strategies.
* Promote effective project management and change practices.
* Contribute to a culture of learning, collaboration, and continuous improvement.
* Support and mentor less-experienced delivery team members where appropriate.


Requirements

* Experience delivering complex projects end-to-end in a dynamic environment.
* Strong stakeholder engagement and collaboration skills.
* Clear, inclusive communicator, comfortable working across different levels and functions.
* Ability to translate strategy into practical, executable plans.
* Strong planning, problem-solving, and analytical skills.
* Experience managing budgets, resources, and delivery timelines.
* Knowledge of Agile, Lean, or scaled delivery approaches (e.g. SAFe).
