Vacancy: IT project manager

Transition Experts is in search of an enthusiastic project manager, who is passionate about IT transitions, in order to be able to continue to meet the growing demand for our provision of services.

By IT transitions, we mean projects which achieve a fundamental change for an organisation. In addition to technological changes, this often also concerns organisational and process-based changes. Examples of IT transitions are IT outsourcing, Cloud transitions, large-scale workplace migrations, data centre moves, merging or splitting of IT as a result of company mergers and splits. Depending on their nature, these projects can have a huge impact. Do you see being a key figure as a challenge and do you have it in you to make these (sub-)projects a success?

As a project manager, you are responsible for managing the IT transition (sub-)projects allocated to you. You can make optimal use of the experiences you have already gained with, for instance, major workplace migrations. You will oversee the projects with a helicopter view and make sure the completed projects are of high quality and on time. You can also enthusiastically motivate and coach the project team and you are able to optimally satisfy the customer together with the project team. You have an open eye for commercial opportunities and take the initiative in acquiring new assignments from both existing and new customers.

The activities mainly take place at the customer location and this can therefore also be outside of the Netherlands.
