QCIC is seeking an experienced and independent Project Manager to assist in project and problem management for a large blue-chip UK based client. The successful candidate will coordinate and direct all facets of the problem management effort, including bringing the right teams, tools, and information together.

What you will do

The PM will sit within our BUILD team reporting into a Senior Project Manager and act as part of the team who are the client’s primary representative for any given project/problem.

Key responsibilities are listed below:

• Budget & Schedule Management: QCIC has full budgetary and schedule accountability for many client projects. The PM will be expected to review and revise the management strategies for commercial delivery responsibilities, including conformance to a range of project reporting requirements whilst liaising with the Senior Project Manager around these.
• Vendor Management: The PM will be expected to review and assist with the management of successful vendor/s under existing contractual terms. This will include all aspects of cost, schedule and quality management required to successfully deliver the project. The PM will be expected to set up and run coordination meetings with vendor PMs to manage project risks and issues, document progress and provide quality assurance across all aspects of the project.
• Client and Stakeholder Management: Our typical clients operate in a complex stakeholder environment. The PM will be expected to assist the Account Director/Programme Manager and stakeholders, advising on how to manage and coordinate a wide range of requirements to align with project requirements with internal compliance and governance stipulations.
• Troubleshooting: The PM will support the roll-out of Genetec across our client, aiding in the form of procedural documentation whilst managing multiple complex issues at any given time. There will be a requirement to look at outside solutions, make suggestions for improvement and review existing procedures and processes. The PM will be required to develop fall-back plans should the preferred solution be delayed or unavailable through researching, diagnosing, and identifying solutions whilst following escalation procedures both internal and external.
