Senior Project Manager | Complex Multi-Site Integration Milestone IT has been engaged by a large client to secure a seasoned Senior Project Manager for a critical, high-visibility transformation project. This isn't a "greenfield" steady-state role. We are looking for a specialist to take the reins of a major multi-site (AB) project currently in flight. You will be replacing a high-level consultancy lead, meaning we need someone who can maintain a rigorous standard of delivery while bringing a pragmatic, internal-stakeholder-first approach. The Mission: You will be the bridge between a diverse business landscape and a complex web of external vendors. Your goal is to de-risk the roadmap, align competing priorities across multiple brands, and ensure technical deliverables are empowered, not blocked. What You’ll Be Doing Vendor Ecosystem Orchestration: Move beyond "command and control" to foster a collaborative yet highly accountable relationship with key external partners. Rapid Integration: Hit the ground running on a project already in motion, quickly identifying dependencies and clearing bottlenecks. Stakeholder Navigation: Manage a multi-layered environment—balancing the needs of business units, technical teams, and parallel project streams. Decisive Leadership: Be the "voice of truth" for the project—holding others accountable and making clear, data-driven decisions on project direction. Your Profile The "Seasoned Player": You have a proven track record of delivering multi-site or multi-brand integrations (Retail/Consumer sector experience is a significant advantage). Vendor Management Specialist: You know how to get the best out of third-party providers through assertive collaboration. Outcome-Driven: You focus on the "Why" and the "How," ensuring the business realizes actual value, not just ticked boxes. High EQ/IQ: You can read a room of executives just as well as you can parse a technical dependency log. Why Join This Project? High Visibility: This is a flagship initiative with direct impact on the group’s multi-brand strategy. Autonomy: You will be empowered to drive outcomes and make the role your own. Flexibility: While we have established rate caps, we are prepared to be flexible for a candidate who brings the exact "consultancy-grade" expertise required. If you have any questions, please call Sam Menon on 03-96706.
