Description

About The Job We're looking for a seasoned Project Manager to lead complex digital transformation programs for government and enterprise clients in the UAE. If you've successfully delivered large-scale projects in Dubai or Abu Dhabi, understand how to navigate multi-stakeholder environments, and can manage cross-functional teams with confidence, we’d love to meet you. You’ll oversee end-to-end execution: from project scoping and stakeholder alignment to execution, reporting, and delivery. This is a hands-on leadership role that requires strong structure, clarity, and the ability to drive momentum in high-impact programs. What You'll Do Lead digital transformation programs from initiation to delivery, ensuring alignment with business objectives and timelines. Coordinate with internal teams, clients, vendors, and government stakeholders across multiple workstreams. Own project planning, scheduling, budgeting, resource allocation, and reporting. Manage risk, dependencies, and escalations with a calm and solutions-oriented approach. Facilitate workshops, planning sessions, and steering committees to align on priorities and progress. Define clear project documentation, timelines, KPIs, and delivery standards. Ensure quality assurance across all deliverables — from design and tech to rollout and adoption. Track and report on milestones, blockers, and outcomes to senior leadership and client stakeholders. Support post-launch optimization and continuous improvement. 6+ years of experience in project management, with at least 2 years leading large digital transformation programs. Prior experience working on government-led initiatives in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, or the wider GCC. Deep understanding of digital platforms, customer experience, and agile delivery models. Proven ability to lead cross-functional teams including UX, tech, strategy, and data. Strong communication and stakeholder management skills — able to present to C-level executives. A structured mindset with the ability to juggle multiple workstreams without losing control. Familiarity with project tools like Jira, Trello, MS Project, Confluence, or Monday.com. Arabic speaking is preferred. PMP, PRINCE2, or Agile certifications are a bonus. Available to work on-site in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, or other GCC locations if required. Open to contract-based engagement (not a permanent role).
