The Role

The Senior Project Manager (Digital) is a key role within our Commercial Systems team. The Commercial Systems team is responsible for all of the systems that drive revenue generation across the business. We support all aspects of selling and servicing our customers' needs. This includes our eCommerce systems; the website and mobile platforms, and the airline reservation management systems that underpin the eCommerce. We are a tight knit team of professionals, working seamlessly with our colleagues in the Marketing and Commercial business functions in a fast paced, competitive environment. We get a lot done and we're proud of our contribution to this incredibly successful business.

This is an exciting time to join easyJet. We are currently embarked upon an ambitious and innovative transformation; the Future Commercial Platform (FCP). This strategic programme aims to replace our legacy commercial systems with a leading-edge eCommerce platform upon which we will base our future success. The new platform will enable our commercial and marketing teams to quickly reconfigure the customer offer through multiple channels, introduce new products and personalise the customer experience without need for major IT involvement. And for our customers, it will support a more inspirational and personalised experience across all of our channels, making it as easy and intuitive as possible for them to meet their travel needs.

The Senior Project Manager (Digital) will be accountable for the successful delivery of the digital channels, initially within the programme and then subsequently exploiting the new platform through a continuous agile delivery programme.

We have selected Sitecore as the basis for our digital channel re-development and this will need to integrate with hybris as the core eCommerce platform.
