We're looking for a Senior Project Manager to lead the transition from build to run, managing the handover of technology operations from the incumbent build partner to the incoming operate partner.
Key Responsibilities
Own and manage the transition of IT Service and IT Operations including code repository handover and process transfer
Design, schedule, and run structured knowledge-transfer sessions between outgoing and incoming delivery partners
Define and scope the transition workplan where documentation or handover artifacts are incomplete or non-existent
Engage with stakeholders to capture lessons learned in previous migrations
Build and maintain strong working relationships across onshore and offshore teams, and across incumbent/incoming vendors
Support the delivery team's shift toward quarterly (QTR) release cycles




Manage delivery using both Agile and Waterfall approaches as required by the workstream
Track and report on transition progress using Jira and Confluence
Proactively challenge existing ways of working
About You
Proven Senior PM experience delivering large-scale enterprise technology transformation, ideally with exposure to system migrations, vendor transitions, or build-to-run handovers
Experience managing multi-vendor delivery (incumbent-to-incoming transitions) is highly desirable
Robust stakeholder and relationship-building skills — able to build trust quickly with onshore and offshore teams and multiple vendors
Proactive, solutions-oriented self-starter, comfortable operating with ambiguity and limited handover documentation
Confident challenging established practices and driving process improvement in a less mature delivery environment
