We are looking for an experienced Senior IT Project Manager to lead cross-company integration initiatives and bring newly acquired or existing brands into our evolving global IT ecosystem.
What You’ll Do:

Lead complex, cross-brand IT integration projects across infrastructure, workplace, collaboration, identity & access, security, and core business applications.
Assess the IT environments of acquired or existing companies and translate findings into pragmatic, phased integration roadmaps.
Drive standardization of group-wide IT services while balancing local needs and legacy realities.
Collaborate closely with local IT leaders, business stakeholders, and external partners to align priorities, manage dependencies, and ensure seamless delivery.
Establish and run project plans, budgets, risks, and steering committees in a growing and maturing IT governance environment.
Feed lessons learned back into our global IT reference architectures, service definitions, and integration playbooks.
Travel occasionally to group companies (approx. 20–30% depending on project needs).

Requirements

• University degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Engineering, or equivalent experience.
• 7+ years of IT project management experience, especially in multi-stakeholder or integration-heavy environments.

• Strong understanding of enterprise IT: infrastructure, networks, cloud, workplace, collaboration, IAM, and security fundamentals.
• Experience working with legacy systems and multi-entity environments.
• Hands-on experience with hybrid PM methodologies (Agile/Waterfall) and tools (MS Project, Jira, etc.).
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills across cultures and hierarchy levels.
• High ownership, pragmatism, and the ability to create structure in ambiguous environments.
