We’re looking for an IT Projects Manager to join a small, busy IT team at the UK’s leading specialist centre for complex neuro-disability. The work matters. The projects you deliver help our clinical, operational and corporate teams give better care to the people who depend on us.
You’ll own a varied portfolio of IT projects from start to finish: planning, budgets, suppliers, risk, governance and delivery. We want a project manager who can work both in the detail of a project plan one day, and shaping the bigger picture with senior leadership the next. This is a central role in a small technology team, so your judgement and the relationships you build will really count.
What you’ll bring
- A track record of delivering IT projects to time, cost and quality in a complex organisation
- Strong people skills, so you can talk to clinicians, senior leaders and suppliers and be understood by all of them
- A practical, problem-solving approach to risk, change and competing priorities
- A good understanding of IT infrastructure, software delivery and system implementations
- Useful extras: a PM qualification (APM PMQ, PMP or similar) and experience in healthcare, charity or not-for-profit settings
A note on AI, and how we recruit
We expect our IT Projects Manager to use AI well, and we’d like to hear how you’d do it. In your own words, tell us where AI genuinely helps you work better: planning, tracking, reporting, managing risk. Real examples, please.
What we don’t want is a cover letter written by AI. We won’t use AI to screen applications. Every submission is read by a real person on our team, so it is worth taking the time to write a proper cover letter about your real skills, experience and the way you work.
We want to hear from you, in your own voice. If you want to make a difference, work alongside good people, and help drive change in a specialist care setting, we’d like to hear from you.
Why the Royal Hospital for Neuro-disability is a great place to work:
-
Generous Annual Leave entitlement
-
Free counselling and therapy sessions and other mental wellbeing support through our partner CIC Wellbeing
-
Get involved in our free on-site wellbeing programs, including weekly yoga, and monthly pottery club (we are the UK’s only hospital with its own kiln)!
-
Draw down a percentage of your monthly wages a few weeks early to help with unexpected costs.
-
Financial support services such as low-interest loans and help with savings accounts through our partnership with London Capital Credit Union.
-
Join our wellbeing networks to connect with people in our hospital; we have a Pride network, Women’s network, and our Race Equality network. We also have heritage events to celebrate the diversity of our workforce – most recently we had a South East Asian celebration.
-
Free on-site parking (rare in London!)
-
More benefits: Cycle2Work scheme, tech purchase support scheme, Blue Light Card discounts, and more.
