Project Manager – Technology & Business Change

About the Role

A growing organisation is seeking a Project Manager to support the delivery of a diverse portfolio of technology and business change initiatives across the entire business.

This role requires a highly adaptable Project Manager with broad experience in technology and transformation, rather than one who specialises in a single technical discipline or delivery environment.

The successful candidate will work across initiatives including:

  • CRM and business application projects
  • Infrastructure and end-user technology upgrades
  • Operational systems optimisation
  • Software-related change
  • Data initiatives
  • Process optimisation
  • Wider transformation programmes

The environment is fast-paced and highly collaborative, with projects spanning both technical and operational teams. The role demands someone comfortable bridging gaps between technology and business needs to drive adoption, engagement, and long-term value realisation.

Stakeholder management is a key aspect of the role. The ideal candidate will:

  • Operate effectively with senior leadership
  • Challenge constructively where needed
  • Manage expectations and deliver clear communication around risks, priorities, and outcomes
  • Build and sustain trust across technical and operational stakeholders

Key Responsibilities

  • End-to-end project ownership covering the full delivery lifecycle:
    • Initiation & planning
    • Rollout & adoption
    • Transition to Business as Usual (BAU)
  • Delivery of diverse technology & business change projects, including:
    • CRM & business applications
    • Infrastructure & end-user tech upgrades
    • Operational systems & process improvements
    • Integrations & software-related changes
    • Data initiatives
  • Management of multiple concurrent projects, balancing competing priorities across various business functions
  • Coordination of:
    • Internal IT teams
    • Operational stakeholders
    • External suppliers & third-party delivery partners
  • Development & maintenance of:
    • Detailed project plans
    • Governance packs
    • Status reporting
    • Budgets
    • RAID (Risks, Actions, Issues, Dependencies) logs
    • Delivery timelines
  • Support in:
    • Requirements gathering
    • Solution design
    • Testing
    • Rollout planning
    • User engagement activities
  • Ensuring business readiness, stakeholder alignment, and operational adoption of new systems
  • Supplier management, ensuring third-party deliverables stay on track with agreed timelines and outcomes
  • Clear communication across technical and non-technical audiences, keeping stakeholders informed and engaged
  • Regular updates to senior leadership, with the ability to communicate progress, risks, and priorities in a commercially informed way
  • Proactive risk identification, dependency management, and mitigation planning
  • Supporting continuous improvement in project delivery standards, governance, and operational execution

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

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.
