Sitting within the Technology Transformation Team, Technology Project Managers form part of Burberry IT's central Project Management capability and are deployed across projects, programmes and domain-aligned initiatives according to portfolio priorities and delivery demand.

They are accountable for the effective day-to-day management and delivery of their assigned initiatives, establishing the structure, planning, governance, controls and delivery cadence required to achieve agreed outcomes. Working in partnership with the accountable IT Director or nominated senior stakeholder, they maintain clear alignment on outcomes, scope, delivery priorities, risks, decisions and trade-offs.
