This role will either be full time (X5 days per week) throughout the entire duration of the project or will be part time (likely X2-3 days per week) until around February/March time next year and will then become full-time (X5 days per week) throughout the remainder of the project thereafter.

After interviews the client will assess candidates experience and their skillset and will then discuss how this could be utilised in other service areas.

Candidates must:

  • This is very much more of a data transfer project than anything else however just as important as having a strong technical background is having the ability to liaise with key partners as this will be a complex project with multiple stakeholders.

  • PRINCE2 is preferable but candidates must have previous project management experience within some form of local government setting.
