Senior Project Manager

Description

Croxley, UK Full-Time

Ready to take ownership of complex engineering projects and help bring innovative technology to market?

Are you an experienced Senior Project Manager with a background in advanced product development, engineering and technology? Do you thrive on leading multidisciplinary teams, overcoming technical challenges and delivering projects that make a real commercial impact?

This is an exciting opportunity taking ownership of complex engineering development projects across international R&D teams in the UK and Copenhagen, working alongside more than 70 engineers.

The Opportunity

As Senior Project Manager, you will play a pivotal role in driving engineering projects from initial specification through development and into production. Working across Engineering, R&D, Manufacturing, Supply Chain and Regulatory, you will have responsibility for ensuring projects are delivered on time, within budget and to the agreed scope.

You'll also have the opportunity to influence how projects are managed across the wider business, improving processes, harmonising reporting and introducing efficiencies across the Project Management Office.

Key Responsibilities

Lead complex engineering and product development projects from concept through to production.

Manage cross-functional, international teams, providing strong leadership without relying on direct authority.

Own project budgets, forecasts, timelines, risks and critical path activities.

Present project performance, financial forecasts and key risks to senior leadership.

Drive Agile project management methodologies and continuous improvement.

Manage customer relationships, challenge requirements and prevent unnecessary scope changes.

Identify project risks and implement effective mitigation strategies.

Work closely with Engineering, Manufacturing, Supply Chain and Product Management to ensure successful delivery.

What We're Looking For

Graduate-level education, ideally supported by APM, PMP, PRINCE2 or equivalent certification.

Proven experience delivering complex engineering or advanced product development projects.

Experience with products combining electronics, mechanics, acoustics and embedded software/firmware.

Strong understanding of Agile project management.

Excellent financial and commercial awareness, including budget management and forecasting.

Experience leading matrix-based teams across multiple engineering disciplines.

Confident stakeholder management skills, with the gravitas to influence at senior leadership level.

Why Join?

This is more than a traditional project management position. You'll have the opportunity to influence international engineering operations, shape project delivery methodologies and take ownership of technically challenging programmes within an innovative technology business.

If you're a commercially minded engineering Project Manager who enjoys taking ownership, challenging the status quo and delivering results, this could be your next career move.
