Are you ready to love your job?
The adventure begins right here, with you, at SITA.
PURPOSEAs an executive-level Project Manager, you will lead and deliver complex cross-functional projects that advance our most important strategic initiatives. You will own these projects end to end — from the moment leadership commits to an initiative through to delivery and value realisation — spanning technology and tools adoption, process change, and integration across organisational boundaries.
Operating with extensive executive and senior-leadership exposure, you will partner with leadership team members, sponsors, and project teams to plan, govern, and deliver against the organisation’s strategic objectives. You will set direction, drive pace and accountability across functions, manage risk and budget, and keep executives and stakeholders clearly informed through disciplined, decision-ready status reporting.
You will bring a working understanding of organisational change to your delivery - anticipating impacts, adoption risks, and resistance, and building these considerations into your plans so that change holds. Deep change-management specialisation is welcome but not essential: the priority is a strong project manager who applies change principles in service of delivery, not a change specialist asked to run projects.
Your early involvement is decisive. From the point of decision, you will shape the project charter, define the implementation strategy, and establish the action plan, governance, and decision-making framework that set the initiative up to succeed.
Lead and Deliver Cross-Functional Projects
Initiate and drive delivery: Take the lead from initiation through to value realisation, holding cross-functional teams accountable to scope, pace, and outcomes aligned to strategic goals.
Plan and execute: Build and run robust project plans — timelines, resources, dependencies, and milestones — and adapt them as conditions change.
Engage Executives and Communicate with Impact
Produce executive-grade materials: Create concise, compelling status updates, briefings, and reporting tailored to a leadership audience.
Shape Strategy and Secure Approval
Build Organisational Change into Delivery
Govern, Monitor, and Realise Value
Qualifications
EXPERIENCEProven delivery track record: Minimum of 6 years managing multiple projects and programmes of varying size, complexity, budget, and deliverables — preferably with a technical or IT background, and ideally within the aviation sector.
Exceptional executive communicator: Proven ability to present to and influence executives and senior management, with the credibility to collaborate across diverse, globally dispersed teams and align stakeholders behind a plan.
Strong project management craft: Skilled in task prioritisation, timeline management, governance, and delivering results in a fast-paced environment — working effectively both independently and collaboratively.
A bridge-builder: Fosters seamless interaction across teams, aligning goals and processes; an engaged listener who understands and addresses concerns, and a proactive, resolution-oriented problem solver.
Working knowledge of organisational change: Familiar with change-management principles, methodologies, and best practices, and able to apply them in support of delivery. Deep change-management specialisation is a plus, not a requirement.
