You’ll be joining a team at the heart of business and technology change — delivering projects that support our strategic priorities while we evolve how we work as an organisation.
About the role
This is an exciting opportunity to join Premium Credit as a Project Manager at a time when the business is evolving how it delivers change.
Reporting into a Senior Project Manager, you’ll manage a range of projects within wider programmes of work. Your focus will be on strong delivery, stakeholder engagement and governance — while increasingly working alongside teams operating within a product‑centric delivery model.
You won’t necessarily be expected to be a Product Owner, but you will need to be comfortable working with product teams, backlogs and iterative delivery approaches as part of our wider transformation journey.
This role offers excellent exposure, support and development for a PM looking to strengthen their experience in complex, regulated change environments.
What you’ll be doing
- Manage end‑to‑end delivery of individual projects within larger programmes
- Support project initiation, business case development and requirements gathering
- Build and maintain delivery plans, tracking progress, risks and dependencies
- Maintain RAID logs and support effective mitigation of risks and issues
- Manage changes to scope, timelines and costs, ensuring clear communication and alignment
- Track project budgets, forecasts and benefits realisation
- Build effective working relationships with stakeholders, SMEs and delivery teams
- Facilitate workshops and working sessions to support decision‑making and progress
- Support business change activity, including impact assessments, readiness and adoption
- Work collaboratively with product teams and delivery leads as part of hybrid delivery approaches
Who we’re looking for
This role is suited to a hands‑on Project Manager who enjoys delivery, collaboration and learning, and who is keen to grow their career within a modern change function.
You’re likely to bring:
- Experience delivering projects across the full lifecycle, particularly digital or technology‑enabled change
- Exposure to Waterfall, Agile or hybrid delivery approaches
- Confidence working with multiple stakeholders in a fast‑paced environment
- Experience supporting or managing delivery with third‑party or offshore technology partners
- Sound financial awareness, including budget tracking and forecasting
- Strong organisation, communication and facilitation skills
- An interest in how product‑centric delivery works, even if you haven’t worked directly as a Product Owner
A formal PM qualification (PRINCE2 or PMP) is desirable, along with experience in financial services or other regulated environments.
What we offer
- Competitive salary
- Hybrid working, with collaborative time in our Leatherhead office
- 25 days’ annual leave (plus bank holidays), with buy/sell options
- Private health and dental cover
- Workplace pension scheme
- Ongoing investment in learning and development
- 24/7 Employee Assistance Programme and Mental Health First Aiders
