Senior Project Managers - Government

Swindon

Something extraordinary is happening at the heart of government. Because right now, our ambitious vision for ‘A Brilliant Civil Service’ is fast becoming a reality. We’re finding new ways to better serve the nation, through effective leadership, shared knowledge, and increasingly agile solutions. And we’re making the Civil Service a truly great place to work.

For you, this promises a rare chance to make a meaningful impact at a critical time, touching millions of lives. As one of our trusted senior project managers, you’ll be part of a growing delivery pool - an innovative, vibrant community of experts, working together to tackle the biggest issues in the UK today

Depending on location and specialism,you could be based in one of five government departments:

      Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS): some of the most far-reaching projects in the UK right now - from new nuclear investments to smart energy grids for the future.

      Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS): promoting the UK’s cultural and artistic heritage at home and abroad by investing in innovation and highlighting Britain as a fantastic place to visit and do business.

      Cabinet Office: developing, communicating and implementing critical policy areas and ensuring the effective running of government.

      International Trade (DIT): shaping the UK’s approach to trade.

      Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA): impacting people's day-to-day lives for the better, from the food we eat, the air we breathe, and the water we drink.

As you’d expect, we want to work with senior project managers who excel at leading large, complex and challenging projects. Crucially, you’ll prove resilient and pragmatic in the face of uncertainty and political sensitivity. And you’ll expertly manage a number of high profile stakeholders, each bringing different priorities and points of view. What’s more, you’ll skilfully adapt procedures and methodologies to each unique situation.

Of course, to work on some of the most fascinating initiatives in government, you’ll need to demonstrate significant experience in delivering complex or high risk projects. You’ll be credible with a broad and complex range of stakeholders. And you’ll bring practical experience of actively managing project risks.

In return, you’ll enjoy an inclusive and dynamic culture, flexible working and an excellent pension. You’ll experience outstanding opportunities to progress across the Civil Service. And you’ll benefit from the prestige that comes with belonging to a truly valued project delivery team.

Ultimately, we’re working to make life better for everyone - and this is your chance to be part of it.
