Job Description

Anticipated Contract End Date/Length: November 30, 2026

Work Set Up: Hybrid

Our client in the Information Technology and Services industry is looking for a Technical Project Manager to support a large-scale infrastructure migration programme within a complex enterprise environment. This role will focus on managing migration pre-requisite and enablement activities, ensuring impacted services, platforms, and infrastructure components are fully prepared and approved ahead of production migration events. The position requires strong programme coordination, stakeholder engagement, dependency management, and governance oversight across multiple infrastructure teams, IT Service Owners (ITSOs), and delivery partners.

What you will do:

 

Lead and manage a dedicated migration pre-tasks and enablement workstream independent from core migration execution activities.

Plan, coordinate, track, and report readiness activities required ahead of migration events.

Align enablement workstreams with overall migration schedules and programme milestones.

Act as the primary coordination point between project teams, IT Service Owners, engineering teams, and delivery partners.

Manage stakeholder communications related to upgrade scheduling, dependencies, issue resolution, approvals, and replanning activities.

Secure required approvals for production scheduling in alignment with governance and ITSO requirements.

Coordinate infrastructure upgrades and prerequisite activities across virtualised and platform environments.

Collaborate with engineering and infrastructure teams to ensure correct sequencing and execution of enablement activities.

Manage planned reboots, downtime windows, and non-functional dependencies as part of migration readiness planning.

Maintain and continuously update readiness dashboards, VM trackers, risk logs, and status reporting documentation.

Monitor execution progress, dependencies, blockers, risks, and issues across migration readiness activities.

Escalate risks and delivery concerns proactively to support timely decision-making and programme continuity.

Ensure clear visibility of migration preparedness across impacted services and infrastructure environments.

Support governance, reporting, and change management processes associated with migration and upgrade activities.

Drive coordination and execution across multiple teams without direct management authority.
