About the Job

We’re looking for a sharp, results‑driven, and adaptable IT Project Manager who can lead with precision and execute with impact.

  • Identify inefficiencies and drive process improvements that boost productivity across both projects and support operations.
  • Own project and support budgets—ensuring resources are allocated effectively and financial targets are met.
  • Track expenditures and adjust plans dynamically to stay on target without compromising outcomes.
Role Qualifications
  • Proven experience as an IT Project Manager, with a strong background in both strategic project execution and IT support/BAU management.
  • Deep understanding of Agile and Waterfall methodologies, with the ability to flex between them as needed.
  • Proficiency in  or similar project management tools.
  • A technical edge that lets you cut through the fluff and hold teams accountable—without needing to design solutions yourself.
  • Sharp analytical skills and a problem‑solving mindset that turns challenges into opportunities.
  • Top‑tier communication skills—able to translate technical jargon into clear, actionable language for stakeholders at all levels.
  • Proven ability to manage multiple priorities in a high‑pressure, fast‑moving environment.
  • Relentless ownership of outcomes—you’re someone who drives projects across the finish line, no excuses.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Information Technology, Computer Science, Communications, or a related field (preferred but not required).
  • Knowledge of retail business operations or a genuine enthusiasm for learning the industry.
  • Experience leading cross‑functional technology initiatives in fast‑paced business environments.
