Technical Project Manager (10/999)

Project

We are looking for a Technical Project Manager to coordinate an enterprise technology transformation programme focused on migrating workloads from VMware vSphere to Red Hat OpenShift.

You will be responsible for coordinating the migration lifecycle from workload discovery and readiness assessment through testing, cutover, operational acceptance and legacy-platform decommissioning.

The role requires strong programme coordination and stakeholder management skills, combined with enough technical understanding of VMware vSphere and OpenShift to challenge assumptions, identify dependencies and support informed project decisions. Hands-on administration of the platforms is not required.

You will

• Coordinate the end-to-end VMware vSphere to Red Hat OpenShift migration programme

• Develop and maintain an integrated transition roadmap covering assessment, design, build, migration waves, testing, cutover and decommissioning

• Coordinate infrastructure, application, platform, network, storage, security, architecture and operations teams

• Define migration waves, prioritise workloads and coordinate migration activities with minimal business disruption

• Manage project risks, issues, assumptions, dependencies and decisions

• Track application readiness, technical prerequisites and operational requirements

• Coordinate functional, integration, performance, resilience and operational acceptance testing

• Manage project plans, milestones, deliverables, actions and decision logs

• Prepare status reports, steering committee materials and management information

• Coordinate change-management activities, ensuring changes are assessed, approved, scheduled and communicated

• Coordinate operational handover, including support models, documentation, monitoring, backup, patching and incident procedures

• Support service resilience, sustainability and recovery requirements throughout the migration

• Ensure migration activities comply with relevant service management standards and governance requirements

• Coordinate engineering changes with a strong focus on customer and user experience

• Support the controlled and auditable decommissioning of legacy infrastructure

• Communicate technical topics clearly and translate them into project-level decisions for senior stakeholders

• Good understanding of application dependencies, interfaces, databases, monitoring, backup and recovery requirements

• Experience with workload discovery, classification, dependency mapping and readiness assessments

• Experience with migration planning, including capacity, performance, security, compliance, cutover, rollback and recovery

• Strong dependency and stakeholder management skills

• Experience coordinating multiple technical teams and working across organisational boundaries

• Strong project governance, reporting and planning skills

• Experience coordinating operational handover and service acceptance

• Understanding of change-management processes in enterprise IT environments
