About the role

As a Project Management Professional, you’ll play a key role in planning and delivering complex optical circuit orders and wider network delivery projects for our business customers. You’ll take ownership of projects that may range from smaller, low‑complexity deliveries through to defined workstreams within larger programmes. Regardless of size, you’ll bring structure, clarity and momentum to ensure every project stays on track.

You’ll be working with cross‑functional experts from across BT to deliver bespoke Network, IT and Voice solutions. Typical delivery value (including services and equipment) may reach around £1 million, requiring strong coordination, risk management and clear communication throughout.

This is a customer‑facing role, and your approach will directly influence the overall customer experience. You’ll shape outcomes not just through successful delivery, but through the way you engage, collaborate and build trusted relationships.

As part of our professional community of Project and Programme Managers, you’ll be expected to apply established project management methods and tools, working in line with PMO governance and any contract‑specific requirements. You’ll contribute to a culture of continuous improvement, ensuring we deliver reliably, consistently and with our customers at the heart of everything we do.
