Project Manager

A client within the public sector is looking for an experienced project manager or development specialist to take the development of a digital service forward. The development follows a roadmap with several development packages. Each package has a lead who works as a mini project manager for it, owning everything from goal setting and development all the way to benefits realization.

The role is about hands-on project management, documentation and stakeholder work, and you'll be working in a multi-vendor environment.

We're looking for:

• Experience leading development initiatives or projects
• Strong documentation & reporting skills
• Ability to assess and describe the impacts of solutions and features, drawing on the expertise of different specialists like legal counsel, architects and end-user experts
• Understanding of how communication fits in as part of development work
• Ability to manage several workstreams at the same time
• Flexibility when the operating environment changes
• Experience with broad stakeholder collaboration
• Experience working as part of a large, multidisciplinary team

Required experience in:

• Public administration
• Project & development work
• An operating environment governed by legislation

Beneficial:

• Experience with mobile services or mobile development
• Service design skills
• Technical understanding, for example where architecture meets service development

Where the emphasis is: Strong project management and development ownership come first. UI design, facilitation and account management are welcome as supporting skills, not as the core of the profile.

The main need is a project manager or development specialist who knows the public administration environment and has a strong background in project management & documentation. Mobile, tech and service design know-how are a big plus, but not the main focus of the role.
