Metroline Senior Project Manager Opportunity
Metroline needs a Senior Project Manager to lead the delivery of our most important technology initiatives, including infrastructure upgrades, application implementations, cloud, data, and business change.
This is a senior, hands-on delivery role for someone from a consulting, systems integration, or enterprise transformation background who is used to walking into an unfamiliar environment and delivering fast, often before everything is neatly defined.
You'll report to the PMO Manager and own multiple projects end to end, working within the PMO's governance framework and trusted to drive delivery with minimal direction from day one.
What You'll Do
Delivery
- Own the end-to-end delivery of multiple concurrent technology and transformation projects, from initiation through to go-live and benefits realisation.
- Define scope, goals, deliverables, and success criteria, and hold the project and its stakeholders to them.
- Run the full delivery lifecycle: requirements and functional specification, build, data migration, testing, cut-over, and operational handover.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Planning & Control
- Build and maintain robust project plans, milestone schedules, and delivery roadmaps, forecasting accurately and keeping delivery on track.
- Own the RAID log, actively driving mitigation, decisions, and timely escalation rather than simply recording items.
- Manage project budgets and financials, working with budget holders to control and forecast spend.
- Work within the PMO operating model, with projects in Freshservice, RAID, and plans in SharePoint, and weekly RAG and status reporting into Power BI.

Suppliers & Stakeholders
- Manage third-party vendors, strategic partners, and delivery teams, holding them to account for cost, quality, and timelines, including supplier selection and contract delivery.
- Communicate credibly at every level, from technical teams to executive sponsors, surfacing problems early, driving decisions, and translating between technical and business audiences.
What You'll Bring
- A minimum of 5 years' project management experience, with a proven track record of delivering complex technology, infrastructure, and transformation projects, end to end, in enterprise environments.
- Experience delivering ERP transformation programmes, including system implementation, integration, migration, or business process transformation, is highly desirable.
- Experience working within audit, controls, regulatory, or compliance-driven environments, with an understanding of governance and assurance requirements, is desirable.
- Consulting, systems integration, or professional services background, comfortable delivering fast with limited context.
- Comfortable operating in ambiguity, bringing structure to complex programmes, and imposing delivery discipline when a project lacks it.
- Proven managing multiple concurrent projects, third-party vendors, and strategic partners.
- Strong on governance, financials, RAID, planning, and reporting.
- Excellent stakeholder management up to executive / "C" level, with the confidence to challenge and escalate.
- PRINCE2, APM, or PMP qualified, or equivalent demonstrable experience.
- Transport, logistics, or operationally critical sector experience is an advantage, not essential.
