We are seeking professionals with direct experience in the railway industry who understand the nuances of delivering and managing data-intensive projects, from infrastructure and operations to reporting and analytics.

• Work effectively in complex technical environments.
• Operate within a PMO framework, ensuring all required artefacts are developed and maintained to support project delivery.
• Liaise with the National Transport Authority (NTA) to ensure all necessary project controls and reports are in place.
• Monitor relevant SLA/contract metrics and take appropriate action when required.
• Provide regular updates to the CIO, Head of PMO, senior management, and relevant committees on project progress and key issues.
• Transition completed projects into operational service.
• Perform any other related duties as assigned.

Required Skillset
The Project Manager(s) must have full lifecycle experience managing complex IT projects, particularly within the Data & Analytics domain. Candidates should demonstrate substantial expertise by having successfully delivered at least three high-profile data-related projects, ideally within similar technical environments.

Mandatory Certifications:
