Project Manager Contract

Project Manager (Data Focus) – Edinburgh (Hybrid)

6-month initial contract | Inside IR35 | c.£500/day | Strong extension potential

We’re looking for an experienced Project Manager to join a busy delivery environment in central Edinburgh, with a strong emphasis on data-led projects (including migration and platform transitions). You’ll take ownership of end-to-end delivery, ensuring projects are delivered to scope, budget, and timelines while maintaining robust governance and control.

The initial focus will be on data programmes, so experience managing data migration, cutovers, and business readiness is key. You’ll work closely with stakeholders, suppliers, and delivery teams, managing RAID logs, tracking financials, and driving progress across complex, interdependent workstreams.

There is an expectation to pick up projects across other areas as needed, so this suits a well-rounded PM who can adapt across different domains while maintaining a structured, delivery-focused approach.

• 3-4 days onsite in central Edinburgh
• Strong stakeholder and supplier management required
• Experience in regulated/complex environments beneficial
• Exposure to Waterfall, Agile or hybrid delivery

If you’re a proactive, organised PM with a strong data project background and a track record of delivering in fast-paced environments, this is a great opportunity with real continuity beyond the initial term.
