Project Manager - Systems Implementation
IT Project Manager – Low Code Platform Implementation
Outside IR35 | 6 Months | Hybrid (Manchester – 2 days per week onsite)
We have an opportunity for a IT Project Manager to lead the implementation of a low-code CRM/workflow automation platform within a growing financial services organisation.
This is a hands-on delivery role in a low-maturity project environment, where governance, templates, and delivery structures are still being established. The successful contractor will need to ** create structure while delivering**, taking ownership of both delivery execution and light-touch governance setup.
Responsibilities
Lead Implementation & Governance
- Lead the end-to-end implementation of the selected low-code platform.
- Establish pragmatic, lightweight project governance.
- Create and maintain core delivery artefacts, including:
- Project plans
- RAID logs (Risks, Appeals, Issues, Dependencies)
- Reporting
- Change control procedures
Delivery & Stakeholder Management
- Manage delivery across business and technical workstreams.
- Coordinate internal stakeholders, subject matter experts (SMEs), and third-party implementation partners.
- Facilate workshops and support hands-on requirements gathering (Business Analyst activities required).
- Drive delivery momentum, proactively managing:
- Risks
- Issues
- Dependencies
- Provide clear and consistent reporting to senior stakeholders.
