This role is designed to strengthen our delivery capability across our most strategic accounts in industries like Consumer Goods, Financial Services and Energy.
As the demand for data and AI-driven transformation grows, so does the need for structured, proactive project leadership. At Snap Analytics, we help clients unlock the full potential of their data, and we’re scaling fast. As part of your role as Project Manager, you'll ensure that our largest and most complex projects are delivered according to the project plan, issues are tracked and escalated in a timely manner and ensure smooth delivery and client satisfaction.
We’re looking for a Project Manager who can lead multi-stream data and AI projects, manage senior stakeholders, and drive outcomes across technical and business domains. You’ll be joining a collaborative, delivery-focused team that values transparency, ownership, and continuous improvement.
If you thrive in fast-paced environments, enjoy solving problems, and have a passion for making things run smoothly, this could be a great fit.
What you'll be doing...
You’ll play a central role in delivering high-impact data and AI projects across multiple clients and workstreams. You’ll work closely with technical teams, client stakeholders, and internal leadership to drive outcomes.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Owning and maintaining overall project plans, including milestones, dependencies, and resource allocation
- Leading fortnightly governance meetings to communicate progress, blockers, manage scope/cost changes, and obtain key decisions
- Monitoring project budgets and providing accurate run-rate analysis with the Snap Delivery Lead
- Managing risks and issues proactively, ensuring timely resolution and mitigation
- Coordinating with Architects, Data Engineers, AI specialists, and Data Visualisation teams, acting as their escalation point
- Applying Snap’s proprietary Snap Perform methodology (a blend of PRINCE2 and CMMi tailored for data and AI delivery)
- Managing senior stakeholders across business and technical domains
- Overseeing multiple concurrent projects or clients, balancing priorities and resources effectively
In your first 3–6 months, success might look like:
- Building a strong understanding of our retail client’s account and overall delivery landscape
- Independently managing projects and driving them to completion
- Improving project management processes to increase efficiency
- Supporting client retention through stable, well-managed delivery
What you'll need to succeed...
We’re looking for someone who brings a mix of experience, curiosity, and collaboration.
You might be a great fit if you have:
- A minimum of 10+ years of IT project or product management experience, ideally in data engineering or AI-driven environments
- A proven track record in managing Data and AI projects across multiple clients or business units
- Experience with tools like Azure DevOps and Jira, and Agile delivery methodologies
- One or more recognised project management certifications such as PMP (Project Management Professional), PRINCE2 Practitioner, Certified ScrumMaster (CSM), or PMI-ACP (Agile Certified Practitioner)
- Strong stakeholder management and communication skills, including international exposure
- A good understanding of data pipelines, machine learning workflows, and reporting layers
- Exposure to cloud platforms such as AWS, Snowflake, Databricks, or Matillion
- Familiarity with release management and version control (e.g., GitHub)
- Experience working with cross-functional teams across geographies
- Ability to simplify complex technical concepts for business stakeholders
Soft skills:
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
- Proactive, solution-oriented mindset
- Strong leadership and mentoring capabilities
- Appetite for continuous learning and knowledge sharing
This role might not be the right fit if you’re looking for:
- A purely technical or hands-off coordination role
- A role focused solely on Agile coaching or Scrum Master duties
- Minimal client interaction or low complexity projects

Our work includes high-performance engineering for elite Formula 1 racing teams, the digital transition for more than 5.8 million UK energy customers, supply chains that reach 94% of UK households, and wealth-management platforms supporting over one million families. Every engagement is delivered through Snap 360, our delivery framework, built on four pillars: Data, People, Processes and Technology.This is a genuinely exciting time to join; demand for SAP-to-cloud modernisation and enterprise AI is accelerating, and we’re scaling our teams across the UK, India and South Africa to meet it.
