Major Reservations System Transformation & Complex Integrations
Are you a seasoned Technical Project Manager who thrives on complex integrations and large-scale digital transformations?
We are partnering with a household name in the UK leisure and hospitality sector to find a contract Technical Project Manager. This is a brilliant opportunity to drive a flagship modernization program from its early stages, helping to reshape how a major national brand operates. With the wider transformation program funded and scheduled to run through to 2029, this initial 12-month contract offers incredible long-term stability and potential.
The Program & Challenge
The client is embarked on a major initiative to replace its core, central reservations system. This isn't just a software swap; it’s a complete modernization of their business processes, aimed at digitizing legacy manual and paper-based workflows.

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.

Your Key Responsibilities
- Drive the Transformation: Manage the end-to-end delivery of the central reservations system replacement.
- Master the Integrations: Oversee highly complex system integrations, ensuring seamless connectivity between new platforms and existing legacy architecture.
- Bridge Business & Tech: Collaborate closely with stakeholders to transition manual, paper-based operations into streamlined digital processes.
- Vendor & RFP Management: Assist in evaluating and onboarding software vendors as the RFP process concludes.
- Keep Travel Expensed: Work comfortably from home, with the flexibility to travel to beautiful UK sites occasionally when face-to-face collaboration is required (fully expensed).

- Stakeholder Management: Exceptional communication skills to manage both technical teams and business stakeholders undergoing significant change.
