Senior Project Manager

Our Project Managers make things happen. They're the ones who turn big ideas and complex client needs into smooth, successful deliveries. This role exists because our clients rely on us to bring high-quality, reliable tech solutions to lifeand we need someone who can lead that journey from start to finish.

It's about more than just ticking boxes. It's about understanding what clients really need, keeping things on track when the unexpected happens, and making sure every project meets our standards (and theirs).

You'll be the go-to person for bringing cross-functional teams together, navigating priorities, and making sure we're always delivering value, not just software.

You'll work closely with senior sponsors, business analysts, and technical stakeholders on the client side-navigating expectations, translating needs into action, and ensuring alignment at every stage of delivery.

In short, you'll help us build trusted client relationships, deliver meaningful products, and drive execution with

confidence, clarity, and a commitment to excellence.
