Senior Project Manager
Salary: £50,000 to £65,000
Location : Norwich, Bristol or Perth
Do you have a passion for transformation, like to challenge the status quo and think differently about solving business problems? Are you dynamic, resilient and want to be involved in delivering change that drives Aviva's strategy?
If you do, you could be part of this transformation.We love to constantly innovate to improve our customers' experience. We have brought together all our transformation and technology change agents to drive deliveries and outcomes across Aviva. Our one team approach means you will have great opportunities for career development across the divisions.
We are currently recruiting for Senior Project Managers who have a strong track record in delivering business and technology transformation. You don't need to come from an insurance background, but if you have demonstrable experience in digital transformation, data migration/systems integration projects, business change/readiness or regulatory change using a variety of delivery methods, we would love to hear from you!
This role could be ideal for you, if you have experience of working through the early lifecycle of projects including the selection of a vendor through an RFP process. You'll have strong communication and collaboration skills among project stakeholders, clarifying outcomes/benefits and translating these into deliverables.
A bit about the job:
As the Senior Project Manager, you will deliver projects that support Aviva's strategy through successful embedding of change and continuously improve our customer experience. Along with developing high level and detailed delivery plans, identify and manage dependencies and risks and provide regular project status updates and reports to senior management.
Minimising risk by identifying delivery and operational risks and develop mitigating strategies, along with leading large internal and external teams and third-party suppliers in a matrix environment, will be required in the role. The role will also include influencing and challenging stakeholders up to C-suite. You will own a budget (up to £5million) and will be responsible for accurate forecasting and monitoring of this.
