Role Summary
Aubay is seeking an experienced IT Project Manager to lead a high-profile Motor Finance regulatory programme for a leading financial services organisation.

- Produce and maintain project plans, RAID logs, resource plans and project reporting.
- Validate requirements, manage scope changes and challenge additional demands where appropriate.
- Build collaborative relationships with business stakeholders whilst maintaining delivery discipline and control.
- Prepare executive-level summaries and updates for programme leadership and senior stakeholders.
- Monitor project budget, forecast expenditure and ensure effective financial management of third-party spend.
- Provide solution-oriented recommendations to address delivery challenges and risks.
- Lead weekly project status reporting and governance forums.
- Proactively identify risks, issues and dependencies and implement mitigating actions.
- Coordinate internal teams and external partners to ensure delivery milestones are achieved.
- Drive accountability, ownership and continuous progress across all project workstreams.
- Ensure compliance with all relevant regulatory, legal and operational requirements.
