Project Managers £37,945 - £43,120 Cheltenham High complexity projects, an exceptional development framework, work of national importance and an ever changing culture…this is project management on a different scale. As part of the UK’s security service working alongside MI5 and MI6, GCHQ has a dual role: to collect electronic and digital signals which we convert to vital intelligence, and to protect the UK’s IT infrastructure from external threat. As the world changes, so does our technology, our business and our customers’ requirements, and we operate in a culture of continual development. This alone provides a unique setting for the team briefed with delivering high complex projects across the organisation. Add arguably Europe’s largest and most powerful IT estate, a reputation for professionalising project management, and a development framework widely acknowledged as ‘best in class’, and you’ll begin to appreciate the scope of work on offer. While the skills you’ll develop will be widely recognised outside GCHQ, the nature of the work is quite distinct. Our world just doesn’t share the usual rhythms and routines of business, and it’s highly unlikely you’ll ever see the same project twice. What you will see though is the bigger picture, because we believe that all project managers – from beginners to practitioners - are those with broad exposure to different roles. And equally, to a broad development framework. Ours comprises formal, informal and e-learning, structured development and even coaching and mentoring. Membership of the APM is encouraged and funded. Leading teams comprising both technical and business specialists, you’ll find yourself co-ordinating projects to deliver change within the organisation, and at our customer interface. Gaining plenty of experience across a full range of activities - from tender and procurement through to governance arrangements and stakeholder management - you’ll be able to manage external project dependencies and maintain a robust business case throughout. The demands of these roles call for creative problem-solving skills and the ability to communicate effectively with your team, with colleagues and with customers. As well as large scale project management experience and knowledge of PRINCE2 or equivalent structured method, our Project Managers need to be able to take ownership not just for the project and themselves, but for others in the team. We have numerous projects and various roles in Cheltenham, both across GCHQ and our partner organisation CESG – the UK’s authority for Information Assurance. Your exact project involvement will depend on your experience and skills set. Applicants must be British citizens. For more information and to apply, please visit our website www.gchq-careers.co.uk
