The Role
As our Technical Project Manager, you'll work across our three product-focused workstreams, coordinating the work between the business, product and delivery. You'll make sure that project briefs are clear, understood and ready before they enter delivery, and that dependencies, risks and open questions are visible along the way.
This is a project manager role with good technical literacy. You'll work closely with our engineers and technology leadership, and help protect their capacity as our platform grows, so they can focus on building.
What you'll be doing:
- Coordinating work across our product workstreams, keeping business, product and delivery aligned
- Owning and coordinating requirements and specifications, so everyone is clear on what has been agreed to be built and who and what this impacts
- Leading discovery and project readiness, confirming work is ready before it moves into delivery
- Managing dependencies across teams and sequencing work sensibly
- Tracking open questions and recording decisions, so nothing gets lost or revisited unnecessarily
- Identifying and managing project and delivery risks, and raising them early
- Coordinating across teams, taking on project management that is currently spread across the wider team
- Keeping Linear issues and the backlog well organised and up to date
- Own regular, clear reporting on project status across the business, for individual teams, leadership, and cross-functional stakeholders.
- Build and maintain project trackers, giving a clear, accessible view of what's in flight across the business.
- Organise and manage regular check-ins and stand-ups with project stakeholders to surface issues early and maintain momentum.
You'll work alongside:
- Our Technical Lead, who provides technical leadership across workstreams, including feasibility, architecture and solution direction, technical discovery, engineering risks and trade-offs, and engineering quality
- Our Delivery Lead, who organises the delivery process, including team capacity, sprint organisation, ceremonies, delivery tracking and releases
Your focus is what is being built, who and what it affects, what dependencies and open questions exist, how work should be sequenced, and whether it is ready to enter delivery.
What we're looking for:
- 2 + years experience as a project manager, or in a similar role, in a software or digital product environment
- Good technical literacy: you can talk comfortably with engineers about how systems fit together, technical trade-offs and dependencies
- Experience turning business and product needs into clear requirements and specifications
- A structured approach to managing dependencies, risks, open questions and decisions
- Clear, concise written communication, and confidence working across business, product and engineering teams
- Comfortable managing several workstreams at once
- Experience using Linear, or a similar issue tracking tool such as Jira
- experience in healthcare, or another regulated or data-sensitive environment would be a bonus
We're looking for someone who is excited to join a busy growing organisation - our team culture is based on support and respect and we take a proactive approach to employee progression and development. The ideal candidate for this role will be happy to roll their sleeves up and can take ownership of this role. In return, we offer flexible working; personalised training and development; private health insurance, Employee Assistance Programmes; access to employee perks and Releaf staff patient benefits.
