Technical Project Manager required for a well-known organisation in Dundee, on an initial 12 month Fixed-term contract. This role will be focused on a large-scale Office 365 rollout.
The company:
One of the biggest company's in Dundee, they are very busy at the moment and have a number of key projects that need to be delivered in IT - particularly this Office 365 rollout. You will be tasked with servicing a number of internal clients, with this project being critical to the business.
Centred in the heart of Dundee, the modern offices offer great views across the Tay and a lovely working environment. They prefer people to be working from here (you wouldn't complain) and this role in particular will have plenty of interaction with multiple teams across IT and the business. The role is for an initial 12 months, as they feel the work will be completed after that period. In saying that, there may be scope to become permanent (not guaranteed).
The role:
You will act as both a Technical PM and Business Analysis SME and tasked with delivering technical solutions in the form of new and enhanced solutions. The business are about to rollout Office 365 across the Dundee site and further afield, so a background in similar projects would stand you in great stead.
You will manage project delivery in areas such as analysis and design, configuration and build and deployment. You will work across cross-functional teams and lead and manage the interaction between different levels of the organisation. This is a senior role, so you will be expected to have strong stakeholder management skills and be able to deliver on largescale projects involving internal and external resources amidst teams of 20+ people.
Key Skills and Experience:
** Strong background in Technical Project Management across project management processes and tools - including Agile and Waterfall
** Ideally having undertaken an Office 365 migration (Project Management perspective)
** Managing the delivery of £1m+ projects and programmes of work - across team of 20+ people

** Change management background including ownership of documentation, communication plans, process training, etc

This role is for an experienced PM who can come into the business and really hit the ground running on the Office 365 rollout. You will get the full benefits package for the FTC and this may suit a contractor looking to fill a gap for a year, or even someone who just wants a largescale project on their CV.
