Project Manager (Defence) Real Estate Digital

at  Turner Townsend

Company Description
At Turner & Townsend we’re passionate about making the difference. That means delivering better outcomes for our clients, helping our people to realize their potential, and doing our part to create a prosperous society.
Every day we help our major global clients deliver ambitious and highly technical projects, in over 130 countries worldwide.
Our team is dynamic, innovative and client-focused, supported by an inclusive and fun company culture. Our clients value our proactive approach, depth of expertise, integrity and the quality we deliver. As a result our people get to enjoy working on some of the most exciting projects in the world.
Job Description
Managing implementations in the digital sector combines established tools and techniques with the unique challenges of technology. Whilst the introduction of some Agile practices may even remove the word ‘project’ from the language being used, the principle of controlling time, cost, and quality will always remain. We recognise that projects differ from programmes, yet many of the skills required are often transferrable between the two.
T&T are looking for people with the flexibility to adapt between traditional methodologies and those that have and are becoming commonplace. Who can work through the whole lifecycle, or merely jump into one part of it to help our clients achieve both the outputs and the outcomes that they are looking for.
You may have the following skills, but not limited to, Project Management, Project Controls, Risk Management, Information Assurance, Business Change, and Digital Transformation.
