Job Description
Sword is a leading provider of business technology solutions within the Energy, Public and Finance Sectors, driving transformational change within our clients. We use proven technology, specialist teams and domain expertise to build solid technical foundations across platforms, data, and business applications. We have a passion for using technology to solve business problems, working in partnership with our clients to help in achieving their goals.
About the Role:
As the Project Manager, you will take ownership of delivering complex projects within environments where technology, data, and process come together — often working across both IT and Operational Technology (OT) landscapes.
You don’t need to be a technical expert in every area, but you will bring the experience and confidence to manage projects that involve risk frameworks, process improvement, and technology solutions. Whether it’s supporting the development of new processes, implementing tooling, or coordinating across business and technical teams, your focus will be on keeping delivery structured, well-governed, and aligned to business objectives.
You’ll work across multiple workstreams, engaging with subject matter experts, operational teams, and leadership stakeholders. Success in this role will come from your ability to navigate complex environments, drive progress, and create the right conditions for effective collaboration — ensuring that risks, dependencies, and priorities are well managed from start to finish.
As our Project Manager, you will be:
- Leading and coordinating project delivery across a mix of business, IT, and operational teams.
- Building strong relationships with stakeholders at all levels, ensuring clear communication, alignment, and shared understanding of goals.
- Managing project governance, reporting, risks, issues, and dependencies to keep delivery on track and outcomes focused.
- Overseeing the production, enhancement, and rollout of processes, procedures, and tooling solutions to meet business needs.
- Supporting projects through the full lifecycle — from planning and mobilisation through to implementation and transition to business-as-usual.
- Adapting your approach across different types of projects, whether focused on risk management, process improvement, tooling delivery, or organisational change.
Requirements
- Proven experience managing projects within complex technical environments, including IT and/or OT.
- Strong understanding of project governance, planning, and risk management principles.
- Excellent stakeholder engagement and communication skills, with the ability to build credibility and influence across teams.
- Experience in delivering projects that involve process improvement, risk management, or technology implementation.
- Familiarity with risk frameworks or risk management tooling is desirable but not essential.
- Knowledge of Power Platform tools (Power Apps, Power BI) would be beneficial but not required.
Benefits
At Sword, our core values and culture are based on caring about our people, investing in training and career development, and building inclusive teams where we are all encouraged to contribute to achieve success.
We offer comprehensive benefits designed to support your professional development and enhance your overall quality of life. In addition to a Competitive Salary, here's what you can expect as part of our benefits package:
- Personalised Career Development: We create a development plan customised to your goals and aspirations, with a range of learning and development opportunities within a culture that encourages growth.
- Flexible working: Flexible work arrangements to support your work-life balance. We can’t promise to always be able to meet every request, however, are keen to discuss your individual preferences to make it work where we can.
- A Fantastic Benefits Package: This includes generous annual leave allowance, enhanced family friendly benefits, pension scheme, access to private health, well-being, and insurance schemes, an employee assistance programme, discounted cash plan and more….
At Sword we are dedicated to fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace and are proud to be an equal opportunities employer, ensuring that all applicants receive fair and equal consideration for employment, regardless of whether they meet every requirement. If you don’t tick all the boxes but feel you have some of the relevant skills and experience we’re looking for, please do consider applying and highlight your transferable skills and experience. We embrace diversity in all its forms, valuing individuals regardless of age, disability, gender identity or reassignment, marital or civil partner status, pregnancy or maternity status, race, colour, nationality, ethnic or national origin, religion or belief, sex, or sexual orientation. Your perspective and potential are important to us.
