IT Project Manager - Retail

We are seeking a strong, dynamic and fresh thinking IT Project Manager who will ensure the delivery of Harrod’s Retail Systems projects. 

The role will provide project management expertise and lead internal and external teams from a variety of technical & business disciplines to deliver new systems and functionality to the business. This will not only involve the production of detailed plans and project documentation but also continual leadership of the project team through the provision of support and guidance. 

Ensuring communication is maintained between all stakeholders throughout the project is essential, as are excellent change management skills.  Knowing who to engage with and when, to ensure the project stays on track at all times is vital.

The IT Project Manager’s prime responsibility is to ensure that all organisational procedures are adhered to, objectives are set and met, and that all benefits are fully realised from the implementation of the change.  Successful delivery will be achieved through adapting both agile and waterfall methodologies as appropriate.

The IT Project Manager will bring experience in ensuring assigned projects produce the required deliverables within the defined quality, time and cost constraints and allocated projects will involve close supplier management of key third parties such as Enactor, Diebold Nixdorf and others.  Key stakeholders will include, but are not limited to, Retail, IT, Product Management, Merchandising and PMO.

Please be advised this is an IT role and will require knowledge of retail and IT retail infrastructure.

This is an exciting opportunity to evolve our supply chain, directly influencing and impacting our Redefining Luxury strategic vision.
