We’re expanding, and MASS is looking for an experienced IT Project Manager to join us at a key moment of growth. You’ll start by delivering impactful internal projects within our Service Management team, while supporting newly won work. As fresh Defence programmes come online, you’ll step in from the very beginning, becoming the go to for a major long‑term IT service management project. A key part of your role will be leading the smooth transition of an existing service from a previous supplier into MASS.
If you want to take ownership, drive meaningful change, and grow into a trusted expert, this is the opportunity to do it.
You will make sure
- The planning, execution, and control of your project are delivered to scope, budget, timelines, and quality standards.
- PMO governance, reporting, and project controls are consistently applied and maintained.
- The service transition from the outgoing supplier into MASS is managed end‑to‑end, with minimal disruption and a smooth operational handover.
- All project outputs transition seamlessly into BAU operations.
- Support models, runbooks, SLAs, and processes are fully aligned and ready.
- Project budgets, forecasts, and financial reporting meet PMO standards and remain accurate throughout.
- Technical, commercial, and contractual elements of supplier migration are controlled and delivered successfully.
- Project risks, issues, and dependencies are proactively identified, tracked, and mitigated.
The invaluable experience you’ll bring, to help us achieve more.
Essential
- Have a proven track record delivering end to end technical or service-based projects, including medium scale delivery and managing complex dependencies across multiple teams.
- Experience operating in service management or ITIL aligned environments, including transitioning services between suppliers or into new operational settings.
