London is one of the most exciting and diverse cities in the world and policing it is no easy task. It takes a huge number of people with a wide range of skills and experience to keep over nine million people safe. Some of those skills include seeing opportunities in technology – and that’s where the OSU come in.
As Technical Project Manager, you’ll play a crucial part in protecting London by managing a team of multi-disciplinary technical specialists. You will be responsible for the successful end-to-end delivery of small to medium scale technology projects that directly support frontline policing and corporate operational outcomes. Working with the Head of Infrastructure and other Technical Leads, you will be responsible to ensuring that solutions are operationally effective, secure, ethical, and delivered to a high professional standard, in line with the New Met for London operating model.
You will need to manage the full project lifecycle—from concept definition and requirements capture through design, delivery, testing, deployment, and post implementation review. Projects may include software development, hardware engineering, system integration, deployment of off the shelf technologies, and the development of bespoke technical solutions to meet policing needs.
The role combines clear leadership responsibility with technical and delivery assurance, ensuring risks are understood, benefits are realised, and outputs inspire confidence from operational stakeholders and senior leaders.
