• Create and maintain comprehensive project and delivery documentation.
• Report project health and status utilizing agreed project management systems and tools.
• Ensure project closure meetings are held and produce closure reports highlighting outcomes and areas for improvement.
• Ensure AI-enabled initiatives progress from proof-of-concept through to production-ready solutions, in line with enterprise standards.

What you need to have:

• Strong interpersonal skills, including teamwork, facilitation, negotiation, and consensus building, complemented by excellent written and verbal communication abilities.
• In-depth knowledge of technology project management methodologies and frameworks, along with information management practices and tech solution delivery processes, procedures, and toolsets.
• A solid technical background with experience in product ownership and relationship management, particularly in managing cloud-based or data-driven technology initiatives within large organizations.
• Working knowledge of AI concepts and capabilities, sufficient to manage AI-enabled initiatives effectively (hands-on AI delivery experience is preferred but not required).
• Proficient in budgeting, invoicing, and project financial management, supported by excellent analytical and technical skills.
• Highly organised with exceptional planning capabilities, a strong customer service orientation, and a polished, professional demeanour.
• Proven ability to plan and facilitate effective meetings, deliver strong presentations, and manage multiple initiatives simultaneously, with 5+ years of experience in product and project management.
• Bachelor’s degree in computer science, MIS, business, or equivalent experience.
• Scrum Master certification required.

What makes you stand out:

• Experience supporting or delivering AI-enabled or advanced analytics initiatives.
