Systems Project Manager – Rail & Transit Solutions
We are seeking an experienced Systems Project Manager to lead the delivery of complex rail and transit technology projects from initial concept through to implementation and operational handover. You will manage multidisciplinary teams and coordinate activities across engineering, software, infrastructure, testing, commissioning, suppliers, contractors and customer representatives. The role will involve delivering safe, reliable and compliant solutions within agreed budgets, schedules and quality standards.
Key responsibilities will include developing and maintaining project plans, schedules, budgets, risk registers and resource forecasts; managing scope, requirements, interfaces, dependencies and change control; and ensuring that project deliverables align with technical, contractual, safety and regulatory requirements. You will oversee design reviews, systems integration, verification and validation, testing, site installation, commissioning and acceptance activities. You will also prepare progress reports, facilitate project meetings, monitor performance against milestones, and provide clear updates to senior stakeholders. Effective management of suppliers, subcontractors and customer expectations will be essential, as will the ability to identify issues early and implement practical corrective actions.
The successful candidate will have proven experience managing systems, engineering, infrastructure or technology projects within the rail, public transport, intelligent transport or another safety-critical environment. A strong understanding of systems engineering principles, project governance, configuration management, assurance, testing and operational readiness is highly desirable. You will be an organised and confident communicator with excellent problem-solving, negotiation and decision-making skills, along with the ability to manage competing priorities in a complex delivery environment. Experience with recognised project management methodologies and relevant professional qualifications will be advantageous. A commitment to health and safety, quality, collaboration and continuous improvement is essential.
