IT Project Manager - Cyber Security | Cardiff | Up to £71,500 + excellent benefits

Want to take ownership of high-profile technology and cyber security projects where the work you deliver genuinely matters?

We're looking for an experienced IT Project Manager to join a major, multi-year cyber security and technology transformation programme within a highly regulated environment.

You'll be trusted to lead complex projects from initial concept through to delivery, working with senior stakeholders, technical teams and specialist third-party suppliers. This is an opportunity to get involved in business-critical change with plenty of visibility, ownership and variety.

What you'll be doing

You'll take responsibility for projects across the full lifecycle, including:

Leading complex IT and cyber security projects from definition through to successful delivery
Building project plans, milestones and deliverables and keeping delivery firmly on track
Managing budgets, risks, issues, dependencies and governance
Working closely with senior sponsors and stakeholders across the organisation
Managing third-party suppliers and outsourced delivery partners
Running multiple projects and work streams simultaneously
Driving change adoption, training and transition into BAU
Providing clear, concise reporting on project progress and performance

What we're looking for

You'll already have a strong track record of delivering complex IT projects and be comfortable operating in an environment where stakeholder management and successful delivery are equally important.

You'll ideally bring:

Extensive end-to-end IT project management experience
Experience working within a complex, regulated environment
Excellent stakeholder management and influencing skills
Strong supplier, vendor and commercial management experience
Experience owning project budgets and financial performance
A PRINCE2 or PMP practitioner-level qualification
Degree-level education or equivalent

Experience with in cyber security, cyber resilience, utilities or Critical National Infrastructure would make you particularly well suited to the role, while ITIL experience would also be beneficial.

Why consider it?

This isn't a role where you'll simply maintain project plans and produce status reports.

You'll be joining a significant programme of technology and cyber security change, taking ownership of projects that have real operational importance and working across a complex organisation with senior-level exposure.

If you're an experienced IT Project Manager looking for greater exposure to cyber security, critical infrastructure and large-scale transformation, we'd be keen to hear from you
