Job Title
Every Aston Martin starts with exceptional engineering. Increasingly, it also starts with exceptional software.
From vehicle architecture and software repositories to lifecycle management and deployment platforms, technology is becoming fundamental to how we design, build and evolve our vehicles. We're looking for an experienced IT Project Manager to lead some of the most important digital transformation initiatives supporting that journey.
About the Role
This is an opportunity to play a key role in delivering the software platforms and capabilities that will underpin the next generation of Aston Martin vehicles. Working at the intersection of technology, engineering and business transformation, you'll lead complex programmes that help shape how software is developed, managed, deployed and maintained across our evolving vehicle ecosystem.
You'll be joining Aston Martin at an exciting point in our transformation. As vehicles become increasingly connected, intelligent and software-driven, the platforms that support them become just as important as the engineering excellence they enable. Your role will be to bring together teams, stakeholders and suppliers to ensure critical programmes are delivered successfully, creating technology foundations that will support our vehicles for years to come.
Working closely with colleagues across IT, Software & Electronics Engineering, Enterprise Architecture, Cybersecurity and Vehicle Programmes, you'll provide the structure, leadership and momentum needed to turn ambitious plans into reality. Whether you're managing delivery roadmaps, coordinating implementation partners, navigating technical dependencies or ensuring business readiness, you'll be at the centre of some of our most strategically important initiatives.
