  • Manage project timelines, dependencies, risks, and stakeholder expectations
  • Facilitate decision-making across technical and non-technical teams
  • Use data and operational insights to improve planning, prioritisation, and execution
  • Build trusted relationships with senior stakeholders across technology and the business
  • Drive continuous improvement in project delivery processes and ways of working

What We’re Looking For

  • Strong technical aptitude with the ability to engage credibly with engineering teams
  • Experience managing large cross-functional initiatives involving multiple stakeholder groups
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills
  • A structured problem-solver who thrives in fast-paced, high-performance environments
  • Proven ability to influence without direct authority and drive outcomes across teams
  • Strong organisational skills with the ability to balance competing priorities
  • Interest in technology-driven businesses and financial markets

Nice to Have
