Project Managers - Government

London with limited opportunities in York and Bristol

Both Permanent and Two Year Fixed Term opportunities available

Something extraordinary is happening at the heart of government. Because right now, our ambitious vision for ‘A Brilliant Civil Service’ is fast becoming a reality. We’re finding new ways to better serve the nation, through effective leadership, shared knowledge, and increasingly agile solutions. And we’re making the Civil Service a truly great place to work.

For you, this promises a rare chance to make a meaningful impact at a critical time, touching millions of lives. As one of our expert project managers, you’ll be part of a growing delivery pool - an innovative, vibrant community of experts, working together to tackle the biggest issues in the UK today.

Depending on location and specialism, you could be based in one of five government departments:

      Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS): some of the most far-reaching projects in the UK right now - from new nuclear investments to smart energy grids for the future.

      Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS): promoting the UK’s cultural and artistic heritage at home and abroad by investing in innovation and highlighting Britain as a fantastic place to visit and do business.

      Cabinet Office: developing, communicating and implementing critical policy areas and ensuring the effective running of government.

      International Trade (DIT): shaping the UK’s approach to trade.

      Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA): impacting people's day-to-day lives for the better, from the food we eat, the air we breathe, and the water we drink.

As you’d expect, we’re looking for project managers who can play a key role in delivering large, complex projects. Crucially, you’ll prove resilient and pragmatic in the face of uncertainty and changing priorities. And you’ll be adept at managing risks, multiple stakeholders, your team, and the project itself. From project controls to business transformation, you’ll bring all of your expertise into play, ensuring that each project delivers the right outcomes.

To work on some of the most fascinating initiatives in government, you’ll demonstrate that you’ve contributed to the delivery of projects within agreed time, cost and quality constraints. You’ll bring a sound understanding of project management tools and methodologies, with experience of applying them in practice. Crucially, you’ll also be confident when it comes to developing stakeholder relationships and managing project risks.

In return, you’ll enjoy an inclusive and dynamic culture, flexible working and an excellent pension. You’ll experience outstanding opportunities to progress across the Civil Service. And you’ll benefit from the prestige that comes with belonging to a truly valued project delivery team.

Ultimately, we’re working to make life better for everyone - and this is your chance to be part of it.
