The role
We are currently recruiting a Project Manager for a 6 month term to join a global gaming organisation to support significant transformation and change.
This role is suited to a seasoned Project Manager who has successfully delivered complex business projects and programmes involving multiple stakeholders, workstreams, and functions. You will have a strong track record of delivering business projects using Waterfall methodologies.
Whilst you'll work closely with IT teams, this is a business-focused project management role rather than a purely technical or software delivery position.
The successful candidate will be comfortable managing senior stakeholders, leading Steering Committee meetings, and driving projects from initiation through to completion within a structured project environment.
Key Responsibilities include:
- Lead the delivery of complex projects from planning through to implementation.
- Develop and manage project plans, timelines, budgets, risks, and dependencies.
- Coordinate multiple workstreams across business and technology teams.
- Provide regular project updates.
- Lead project governance activities, including Steering Committee meetings.
- Manage project risks and issues, ensuring appropriate mitigation plans are in place.
- Track project performance and report on progress against key milestones.
About You
- Strong project management background with experience managing multiple workstreams and stakeholders across medium to large scale projects.
- Comfortable engaging with senior business leaders and IT stakeholders.
- Experience working within structured Waterfall project environments.
- Knowledge of Agile methodologies, but with Waterfall delivery forming the core of your experience.
- Strong communication, organisational, and stakeholder management skills.
- Experience delivering business transformation or large-scale systems implementation projects.
- Exposure to supply chain, operations, logistics, or Target Operating Model projects would be desirable.
This is an excellent opportunity for an established Project Manager looking to take ownership of high-profile projects and work closely with senior stakeholders to deliver meaningful business change.
