Job Description:

£65,000 – £75,000 | Hampshire area | Fully Onsite

I’m currently working with a growing technology business operating within the defence sector, looking for an experienced Project Manager to take ownership of a range of technically complex projects.

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys being close to the engineering, customers and delivery – rather than simply managing timelines from a distance.

The role:

  • Manage projects from initial requirements through to successful delivery
  • Take ownership of project performance, budgets, quality and timescales
  • Manage projects typically ranging from £1m-£15m
  • Work closely with engineering and technical teams to ensure requirements are delivered
  • Manage customer expectations and maintain strong relationships throughout the project lifecycle
  • Ensure contractual requirements are clearly understood and delivered
  • Coordinate internal teams and stakeholders to keep projects on track
  • Support the wider project management function and contribute to improving processes

What we’re looking for:

  • Proven experience managing complex engineering or technology projects
  • Experience delivering projects within the defence, aerospace or wider high-tech sector
  • Strong commercial and customer-facing experience
  • Comfortable managing multiple stakeholders and technical teams
  • Experience working on projects with significant budgets and contractual requirements
  • Strong communication, organisation and problem-solving skills
  • Current SC clearance is required as a condition of employment
