About the Role
As a Senior Project Manager at Monument Technology Ltd (MTL), you will oversee the mobilisation and delivery of a portfolio of client contracts. This includes managing concurrent, large-scale programmes alongside smaller projects and workstreams.
You will work cross-functionally, from early engagement with the Commercial team to support bids and define delivery models, through to programme initiation, execution, and handover to Business-as-Usual (BAU) operations. Delivery approaches may vary, so adaptability across methodologies is essential.
You will lead teams within a matrix structure, collaborating with internal MTL colleagues, external partners, and client stakeholders. The role includes full accountability for governance, reporting, financial tracking, and successful delivery outcomes.
A key element of this role is to contribute to the standardisation of our delivery model, promoting repeatable, scalable best practices across all mobilisations.
How You'll Make An Impact
- Lead the end-to-end mobilisation of client contracts, from scope definition and resourcing to cost modelling and timeline planning.
- Ensure the creation and maintenance of robust project documentation, aligned to governance and approval processes.
- Develop and maintain detailed project plans (e.g., in Microsoft Project), providing a portfolio-wide view to support proactive decision-making.
- Produce and present clear, actionable management reports for both internal and client stakeholders.
- Manage projects in line with contractual agreements, applying rigorous change control procedures.
- Facilitate and lead stakeholder meetings, workshops, and presentations.
- Foster strong collaborative relationships with internal and external stakeholders, including third-party suppliers (some offshore).
- Embed the MTL Implementation Framework, ensuring delivery lifecycle adherence and timely production of required artefacts.
- Lead by example — mentor and coach team members while managing day-to-day delivery activities.
What You’ll Bring
- Proven experience leading projects involving complex contract mobilisations in a technology or fintech environment within the financial services sector. In particular end to end delivery of core banking platforms.
- Proven experience of setting up or contributing to the detailed set up of a delivery framework
- Ability to apply and flex between multiple delivery methodologies (e.g., Agile, Waterfall) across different phases.
- Experience working in fast-paced environments with competing priorities and multiple stakeholders.
- Strong understanding of information systems and delivery processes across financial services or related sectors.
- Demonstrated success delivering mobilisation programmes end-to-end, with measurable impact.
- Excellent interpersonal, communication, and negotiation skills.
- Comfortable managing your own workload and supporting team delivery under pressure.
- Familiarity with service management frameworks and ITIL principles (desirable).
- Proficiency in key tools: Microsoft Outlook, Teams, Project, Visio, Word, Excel, Confluence and PowerPoint.
