Job Description

Senior Project Manager – DevSecOps Platform


Outside IR35 | UK Remote | Contract | Active SC Clearance Required


An exciting opportunity for a Senior Project Manager to join a major UK public-sector technology transformation, supporting the delivery and adoption of an enterprise DevSecOps platform.


This is not a traditional PM role. You will sit closely with engineering, DevSecOps, architecture, security and product teams, providing the delivery leadership needed to move a technically complex platform from pilot through to scale and adoption.


What you'll be doing

  • Managing delivery across a phased technology transformation roadmap.
  • Coordinating engineering, architecture, security, platform and business teams.
  • Managing milestones, dependencies, risks, issues and resources.
  • Leading workshops, demonstrations, governance and delivery reviews.
  • Working with multiple stakeholders and delivery partners.
  • Tracking adoption, KPIs and delivery outcomes.
  • Supporting transition from pilot capability into a scalable internal platform service.


What we're looking for

  • Senior Project Manager / Programme Manager experience in technology, digital, software, cloud, infrastructure or transformation.
  • Strong understanding of technical delivery environments.
  • Enough DevSecOps / platform knowledge to understand technical dependencies and delivery risks.
  • Agile or hybrid delivery experience.
  • Strong stakeholder, governance and risk management skills.
  • Experience delivering within government, defence, national security or similarly complex environments is advantageous.
  • Active SC clearance is essential.
