[Hiring] Senior Project Manager @DXC Technology

Role Description

Join us as Senior Project Manager and lead the technology change that keeps the London market moving. You will take ownership of complex, business-critical projects and programmes across our portfolio, with real accountability for scope, schedule, cost, quality, risk, governance, stakeholder engagement and benefits, including work delivered with strategic partners and suppliers. We are looking for a technically credible delivery leader with London Insurance Market experience, who knows how to land change safely for the people who rely on it.

You will work alongside internal teams, market stakeholders, architects, operational teams, suppliers and delivery partners to build realistic, transparent plans, constructively challenge assumptions and keep end-to-end ownership. Your insight will give our leaders the evidence they need to make confident decisions on priorities, resources, risks and trade-offs.

What you will do

• Lead technology projects and programmes end to end, from mobilisation through implementation, transition and closure.
• Own integrated plans, milestones, dependencies, resources, risks, issues, assumptions and decisions.
• Hold strategic technology partners and other third-party suppliers to account for the outcomes they deliver.
• Connect business requirements, solution architecture, technical design, testing, deployment and operational readiness.
• Represent Velonetic in market and delivery governance forums, building stakeholder trust and delivering with integrity.
• Deliver within the standards, stage gates and controls set by the Head of Programme Delivery.

What you will own

• Give leaders accurate, insight-led reporting on RAG status, milestones, risks, issues, dependencies, decisions and change requests, including Steering Committee and board updates that support timely decisions.
• Manage budgets, forecasts, supplier costs and change control so that spend stays aligned with approved plans and business cases.
• Lead implementation readiness, testing, cutover, warranty and handover into live service, using phased transition where it reduces operational or market risk.
• Bring teams, SMEs, architects and suppliers together around clear priorities, keep documentation current, apply proportionate governance, and coach project managers to strengthen delivery practice.

What you will bring

• Extensive experience delivering complex technology programmes, including software delivery, systems integration, data, workflow and platform change, with a proven record of controlled delivery across scope, schedule, cost, quality, risk and benefits.
• Hands-on technical delivery credibility, with the confidence to engage architects and engineers on requirements, design, integration, testing, release and cutover, challenge estimates and sequencing, and translate technical issues into clear business impacts and choices.
• Substantial experience delivering technology change within the London Insurance Market (for example Lloyd's, insurers, reinsurers, brokers or market services providers), and a clear understanding of market processes and the impact of change on market participants.
• Experience managing delivery through outsourced technology partners, including joint planning, supplier challenge, performance management and commercial escalation.
• The ability to keep delivery on track in uncertain environments by exposing assumptions and risks early.
• A track record of influencing senior and Executive-level stakeholders, with clear, engaging communication and the judgement to balance pace, quality and operational resilience.

What will set you apart

• Working knowledge of London Market governance, regulatory and market-body requirements, and the wider insurance, reinsurance and Lloyd's ecosystem.
• Experience leading transformation or modernisation programmes alongside an outsourced delivery partner.
• Knowledge of Agile, hybrid and traditional delivery methodologies, ideally supported by a certification such as PMP, PRINCE2 Practitioner, MSP or APM ChPP.

Benefits

• Comprehensive range of training and career development opportunities.
• Structured induction programme.
• Tailored job training as well as mentoring and support for relevant sponsored professional qualifications.
• Flexible benefits available, including options to “flex up and down” on specific benefits.
• Access to ‘Perks at Work’, a discount store for gift cards and discounts on holidays, restaurants, activities, groceries and more.
