Project Manager

Thorn SDS is looking for a Project Manager/Operations Manager to oversee an IT Project.  The role is based in Alton with regular travel to our client site in Farnborough and potentially other sites across the UK.  We need someone who has customer service experience, with the ability to deliver a practical and pragmatic approach to an operational team working on a client site.

This is not a functional line management role.  We are looking for someone with project management experience to add value to the team, by implementing protocols, identifying clear objectives and outcomes along with defining outputs and timelines.  The work is complex, so we need someone who can map a process, set goals and recognise the deliverables without getting bogged down in the detail.  As the role is operational, things will change. You must be able to work effectively in this type of environment.

We are open to looking at people with experience in IT, logistics, operations, project management or any fast-paced environment.

To be successful in this role you will possess great communication skills, the ability to influence others, the ability to prioritise your workload and work under pressure, the ability to successfully manage stakeholders of all levels and be able to present information relevant to others.   Needless to say, our projects will need to be planned, executed and reviewed in line with the objectives, time frames and resources.

Due to the nature of the work, you will be subject to security clearance.  You will need to be a UK national.

We are open to applicants from all backgrounds and welcome applicants from sections of the community who are currently under-represented within our industry. We value diversity and inclusion. We want to create an inclusive environment where everyone can be themselves and reach their full potential.

We welcome applicants who want to work part-time.
