Technical Project Manager – Data Segregation & Security
Location
London / Hybrid – minimum 2 days per week in the London office
Contract
Outside IR35 / 6 Months Initial
We’re looking for an experienced Technical Project Manager to lead a high-profile, enterprise-wide data segregation and security programme within a major UK media and entertainment organisation.
Following a significant business transaction, the organisation is undertaking a complex technology separation programme to logically isolate one part of the business from retained corporate and studio operations, ahead of a future divestiture.
This is a business-critical programme operating under significant regulatory scrutiny, with key audit and delivery milestones running through 2027. You’ll be responsible for orchestrating the delivery of complex technical controls across a large-scale Google Workspace environment, ensuring the organisation can meet its regulatory commitments while maintaining business continuity and protecting sensitive information.
This is an opportunity for a strong Technical Project Manager to take ownership of a highly visible programme at the intersection of cloud technology, cybersecurity, data governance, regulatory compliance and business transformation.
Technical Delivery Leadership
You’ll lead the delivery of a number of complex technical workstreams, including:
- Restructuring a large-scale Google Workspace environment into clearly segregated organisational units.
- Implementing logical boundaries between different business entities and enforcing appropriate access and contact-lookup controls.
- Overseeing the migration and remediation of thousands of Shared Drives and associated ownership and membership structures.
- Leading the implementation of data governance and security controls, including Data Loss Prevention (DLP), Trust Rules, automated labelling and permissions remediation.
- Working closely with engineering and security specialists to ensure technical controls are implemented, tested and evidenced effectively.
- Using data, reporting and platform activity logs to monitor delivery, identify risks and validate that controls are working as intended.
Programme Governance & Delivery
You’ll provide strong programme leadership while maintaining the flexibility required in a fast-moving regulatory environment.
