Principal Project Manager

I'm currently working with a growing technology business operating within the defence sector
, looking for an experienced Project Manager to take ownership of a range of technically complex projects.

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys being close to the engineering, customers and delivery - rather than simply managing timelines from a distance.

• Work closely with engineering and technical teams to ensure requirements are delivered
• Manage customer expectations and maintain strong relationships throughout the project lifecycle
• Ensure contractual requirements are clearly understood and delivered
• Coordinate internal teams and stakeholders to keep projects on track
• Support the wider project management function and contribute to improving processes

• Proven experience managing complex engineering or technology projects
• Experience delivering projects within the defence, aerospace or wider high-tech sector
• Strong commercial and customer-facing experience
• Comfortable managing multiple stakeholders and technical teams
• Experience working on projects with significant budgets and contractual requirements
• Strong communication, organisation and problem-solving skills
• Current SC clearance is required as a condition of employment
