About the role

We are supporting a large, complex public sector organisation through a period of organisational change and service transition. As part of this, there is a need for a Project Manager to lead a focused piece of work around security alignment and readiness.

This role sits within a broader transformation programme and will play an important part in ensuring that security arrangements are clearly understood, coordinated and delivered in a structured and practical way.

The role

You will lead the planning and coordination of security-related activities across multiple workstreams. This includes mapping existing arrangements, supporting personnel security processes, and ensuring that key milestones are delivered in line with programme timelines.

The work is varied but grounded in practical delivery, bringing structure, clarity and pace to a set of important but sometimes complex requirements.

What you'll be doing
Leading the mapping of current security arrangements across physical, personnel, site and continuity areas
Bringing together information from multiple stakeholders into a clear, usable view of the current state
Coordinating key personnel security activities, including vetting and alignment with national security processes
Developing and maintaining a clear roadmap and milestone plan for security deliverables
Tracking progress, managing risks and dependencies, and keeping delivery on course
Working closely with programme leadership and operational teams to ensure alignment and readiness
What you'll deliver
A clear, consolidated security mapping report covering key domains (e.g. physical, personnel and site security)
A practical roadmap and delivery plan to complete required personnel security activities
Ongoing visibility of progress, risks and dependencies to support informed decision-making
What we're looking for
Experience delivering projects in complex, regulated or public sector environments , where priorities and constraints need careful balancing
Strong planning, governance and risk management capability, with the ability to bring structure to evolving work
Confident and credible stakeholder engagement skills , able to work across different teams and levels of seniority
A practical, delivery-focused approach — able to move work forward without over-complicating it
An understanding of security-related work (physical, personnel or site security) is helpful but not essential
Active SC clearance (essential)
The environment

This role sits within a large, people-focused organisation delivering critical services. The work requires sensitivity, professionalism and a collaborative approach, with a focus on getting the right outcomes rather than simply completing tasks.

You'll be supported by an experienced programme team, with clear governance and a strong sense of shared purpose.
