I’m working with a leading organisation who are looking to appoint an experienced IT Project Manager to join their established and rapidly expanding Tech Hub in central Manchester
Role: IT Project Manager (Software)
Location: Manchester (Hybrid)
Salary: Up To £70K
The Role
You’ll have the opportunity to lead the successful delivery of key technology transformation projects across the organisation, taking ownership of project scope, timelines, budgets and outcomes. You’ll work closely with technical teams, business stakeholders and third-party suppliers to ensure projects are delivered effectively and in line with organisational priorities.
Working with clients, stakeholders and delivery teams, you’ll apply Agile and traditional project management approaches to maintain progress, manage risks and ensure delivery remains on track and within budget.
The role requires a hands-on approach, including the completion of project support activities such as reporting, requirements gathering, process mapping and maintaining project documentation.
This is an opportunity for an experienced Project Manager who enjoys leading teams, resolving delivery challenges and driving successful technology project outcomes.
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.
