As a Digital Project Manager, you will take ownership of challenging technology-driven initiatives that have a visible impact on organisations and society.

The projects are highly diverse. One assignment might focus on modernising a complex publishing environment, while another could involve digitising processes within the food ecosystem or contributing to solutions related to secure digital identification. What they have in common is the use of technology to improve the way organisations, citizens and services interact.

In this role, you will manage tailor-made digital transformation projects from initiation through delivery. You will keep a clear overview of objectives, priorities, timing, budget and quality, while ensuring that all parties involved remain aligned throughout the project.

A key part of your responsibility is acting as the link between the customer and the internal delivery organisation. You translate business expectations into clear actions for multidisciplinary teams and make sure stakeholders have a shared understanding of the scope, responsibilities and expected outcomes.

Together with clients and internal specialists, you will define project requirements, establish realistic budgets, create and maintain delivery plans and monitor overall progress. You will work closely with professionals from different disciplines, including software engineers, UX/UI specialists, QA experts, strategists, content specialists and other technical profiles.
