U Law - Project Manager – Strategic Projects

Portfolio Growth

The University of Law is entering a pivotal period of transformation; accelerating growth in an ever more competitive world to attract students globally, with intensive imperatives on widening access and reducing differences in outcomes related to our students’ backgrounds. Naturally, student expectations are rightly rising with ever heightened perceptions of how their money is being used and what they want for it. At the same time, the University is quickly adapting to changes in the Higher Education sector around regulatory regimes and funding. One of the University’s strengths is its focus on internationalism in our education and employability offer and also the focus on cutting-edge facilities and environments, blending our physical and online learning and working environments. Due to significant growth and product diversification, we are looking to recruit a Project Manager to work in the Strategic Projects Team and take responsibility for managing and delivering key aspects of our Growth and Expansion Portfolio of key projects. You will ensure that all projects are delivered to scope, time, quality & budget and deliver the defined objectives set out in the business case. You will provide project management advice and support to colleagues within the university and be adept at building and maintaining effective relationships with colleagues and senior stakeholders. Reporting to the Head of Strategic Projects, you will have significant experience in business transformation projects and change. You will have led complex transformation projects end-to-end within a fast-paced, large organization, ensuring objectives, goals, and commitments are met while interacting with both business and IT stakeholders at all levels. You will be a self-starter with excellent communication skills and the ability to manage multiple projects and work to multiple deadlines. This fixed term role is an excellent opportunity to work in a for profit, sector-leading Higher Education organisation and it is ideal for candidates who have Consultancy or HE experience and are interested in working at a more commercially-focused institution.
