If you are a Project Manager with experience of delivering substantial ICT projects, then we want to hear from you We do ask that as a minimum you have a good background in IT project management capabilities with evidence of excellent project management knowledge, techniques, and approaches.

Here at Lancashire County Council within our Digital Services Team we have an exciting opportunity for an ICT Project Manager - Level 1.

About us:

Lancashire County Council is the fourth largest local authority in England and covers a huge geographic area and a wide range of communities both urban and rural. The Council's remit is substantial, varied and complex, delivering a wide range of services to the 1.2 million people who live here.

Our Digital Services team serves as a single source for all ICT requirements to over 15,000 customers within the council and other beneficiaries. This is an exciting time to join Lancashire County Council, with plenty of interesting projects in the pipeline as we work to support Council's digital agenda and look to improve service delivery to the people, schools, businesses and organisations of Lancashire and beyond.

This post offers a real opportunity to make a difference to the delivery of public services across Lancashire.

The role:

We have opportunities based within our Design and Implement Team.

You will take responsibility for planning and co-ordinating exciting and interesting projects within a familiar client service area or ICT Service discipline. You will formalise a project proposal and deliver a contracted package of work on time, within budget, enabling the expected business benefit and to the client's satisfaction, managing issues, risks and dependencies successfully along the way.

The level 1 Project Manager will typically be responsible for the delivery of multiple projects or work-packages, including the associated financial impact, within a work-stream or programme. Stakeholder and client relationships are specific to project needs and typically limited to specific ICT Services. You will interface with third party suppliers, which involves the agreement, planning, timelines, and quality of deliverables.

Key Role Accountabilities & Responsibilities:
- Demonstrable experience and capability to manage projects under the following assumptions: that the technical solution would already be largely proven, and main suppliers would have been previously used. The level of risk to the business is clearly outlined and should be low.

Has sound understanding of concepts and principles in project management and a basic knowledge in other subjects or disciplines, which are relevant to the content of the project (. ITIL and industry quality standards).

Works best where the outcomes are unambiguous, contracted before the start of the project and unlikely to undergo material change. Uses judgement based on the analysis of information.

Operates in a learning context with guidance from project sponsors and more senior project personnel but requires minimal supervision. Expected to escalate issues, which have exceeded the expected project boundaries, to the appropriate higher authority.

Has developed communication and diplomacy skills used to persuade and influence with a growing ability to engage and inspire clients at peer level. May also share issues and work on solutions with external consultants.

Should be able to manage and direct the project team. Ability to act as a mentor for a Project Coordinator. Will coach new project management recruits and offer guidance to more junior project staff.

Please ensure you have uploaded and attached your supporting statement to evidence how you meet the criteria for the role. The panel may be unable to shortlist you for interview without this evidence.

In return Lancashire County Council offers a range of benefits, which can be found on LCC Vacancies website.

We reserve the right to close down a vacancy early, before the closing date, if we receive sufficient applications.

Interviews are expected to be scheduled for w/c 8th July 2024.
