Job Title: Network Project Manager
We are looking for a Network Project Manager to lead and control the delivery of building network cutovers and associated deployment workstreams, supporting customers as they transition from current to modern network environments within the Higher Education sector.
Responsibilities
This role will combine project management competencies with technical awareness across networks / network delivery, design readiness, logistics, field execution, quality, service transition, and commercial controls.
- Deliver assigned network transformation and cutover workstreams safely, to agreed scope, quality, budget, timescales, and customer expectations.
- Manage cutover delivery plans, readiness gates, runbooks, stakeholder actions, RAID, dependencies, and evidence required for customer acceptance.
- Coordinate customer digital, service, and network port requirements through design, security rule updates, and delivery readiness.
- Work with Engineering, field teams, suppliers, Quality, and Operations to ensure designs are deliverable, sites are ready, and handover into BAU is controlled.
- Maintain project governance and reporting cadence, including customer updates, internal reviews, milestone tracking, risk escalation, and change control.
- Control logistics, staging, kitting, asset tracking, and field consumables required to support successful cutovers and minimize rework.
- Capture lessons learned from cutovers, warranty activity, defects, and delivery constraints to drive continuous improvement.

You are an organised and technically credible Project Manager with experience delivering IT, telecoms, network infrastructure, migration, or service transition projects.

- Deep understanding of project lifecycle, governance, delivery methodology, planning, RAID, reporting, and stakeholder management.
- Technical awareness of network delivery including switching, wireless, cabling, cabinet constraints, testing, commissioning, and operational handover.
