ABOUT THE ROLE AND THE TEAM

You will join the Airports Product Project Office (PPO) within the Airports Business Unit, supporting the execution of key initiatives across the portfolio.

The PPO drives strategy execution, product lifecycle governance, and performance management across the Business Unit. In this role, you will manage a varied portfolio of projects—ranging from product development initiatives and lifecycle activities to business transformation, integrations (e.g. acquisitions), and internal improvement initiatives.

This is a hands-on delivery focused role, requiring strong core project management capability, adaptability, and the ability to work across cross-functional teams in a global environment.

Deliver projects that support Airports BU objectives by:

  • Managing end-to-end delivery of defined projects of medium size and complexity

  • Contributing to larger transformation or programme initiatives, under the guidance of senior roles

  • Providing structure, governance, and visibility across initiatives

  • Supporting product lifecycle activities and business transformation

  • Ensuring delivery against agreed scope, timelines, cost, and quality

WHAT YOULL DO:

Project Delivery & Execution

  • Manage projects across their full lifecycle: initiation, planning, execution, monitoring, and closure

  • Deliver clearly defined workstreams or projects, and contribute to broader programmes where required

  • Define scope, milestones, deliverables, and success criteria

  • Track progress against plan and implement corrective actions where needed

Planning & Coordination

  • Develop project plans, timelines, and resource requirements

  • Coordinate cross-functional teams and align stakeholders to shared objectives

  • Identify and manage dependencies across workstreams and projects

  • Provide input into planning activities, including capacity and prioritisation

Stakeholder Management

  • Work closely with Product Managers, Engineering, Operations, and Business stakeholders

  • Ensure clear communication of project status, risks, and decisions

  • Build strong relationships across geographically distributed teams

Governance, Reporting & Administration

  • Maintain key project artefacts (plans, RAID logs, status reports, dashboards)

  • Provide regular reporting to stakeholders and leadership forums

  • Ensure adherence to internal project management and product lifecycle processes

  • Support Steering Committees and governance forums through structured updates

Risk, Issue & Change Management

  • Identify, assess, and manage risks and issues proactively

  • Implement mitigation plans and escalate when needed

  • Manage scope changes in line with agreed governance processes

Product Lifecycle & Transformation Support

  • Support product development and lifecycle activities (e.g. readiness, go-live support)

  • Contribute to transformation initiatives such as:

  • Product portfolio improvements

  • Operational/process optimisation

  • Integration activities (e.g. post-M&A)

  • Assist in the execution of initiatives related to portfolio optimisation, operational improvements, or integration programmes

Working Approach and Scope

  • Works within established governance frameworks, processes, and priorities, with guidance on scope and prioritisation

  • Accountable for day-to-day project delivery and coordination, ensuring progress, visibility, and control

  • Coordinate with cross-functional contributors but no formal people management responsibility

  • Provides input into planning, business case development, and forecasting.

  • Escalate complex risks, dependencies, and decisions appropriately, with recommended actions

  • Support larger programmes and transformation initiatives while maintaining ownership of assigned deliverables


Qualifications

ABOUT YOUR SKILLS

  • 4+ years’ experience in project management, preferably within an IT services or technology environment

  • Strong organisational, planning, and prioritisation skills

  • Experience working in cross-functional and geographically distributed teams

  • Effective stakeholder management and communication skills

  • Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment

NICE-TO- HAVE

  • Experience in aviation, airports, or transport IT solutions
