IT Infrastructure Project Manager

Are you a skilled IT Project Manager looking for new assignments? Have you got experience and insights into IT Infrastructure? Do you like managing different stakeholders and ensuring coordination? If yes, this position within Infrastructure & Operations might be of your interest! Satair is growing and we have several projects in the pipeline for Digital and IT, which will require careful and diligent management. To ensure a structured, transparent and controlled project execution, we’re looking for a new colleague who has this type of experience. The position is based in our headquarters in Copenhagen in Infrastructure & Operations.  What the job is … The colleague we’re looking for is a person who finds joy in working with people and gets motivation from driving forward projects. As we’re a global company, you will need good human skills and the ability to coordinate, communicate and most importantly plan. You will mainly be conducting the projects in accordance with the Waterfall methodology and work with colleagues in Satair, Airbus and with suppliers too. You will be the colleague who brings together the others, to ensure that the overview is kept. You will be facilitating technical meetings and SteerCo meetings, requiring that you’re able to talk with different audiences. Most of our projects involve costs, so a financial understanding will be needed to manage the project budgets. Our main collaboration is done on Google Workspace but, there are other tools in use for some projects such as Planisware and JIRA. Experience with these will therefore be a benefit. An important element of the role is understanding urgency and importance and helping to put attention to deadlines and deliverables. It obviously requires an element of pacing and ensuring that all parties have the same priorities, here your efforts and persistence are needed.

The experience (hopefully) tells you that for every start, there’s an element of uncertainty which has to be addressed and managed. Your approach would ideally be to break a big task into smaller pieces, as you acknowledge that everything isn’t done in one stroke but, more likely, several strokes involving different colleagues.  You enjoy working with tasks and appreciate adding structure e.g. in terms of visible planning. You take personal pride in communicating our progress and ensure that the message is easily understood. We can’t take for granted that all stakeholders have the technical expertise, meaning your ability to adapt the message matters. You have an interest in IT Infrastructure and know the overall aspects. We don’t expect you to be a technician within a certain area but, we foresee that knowing the basics will be of big help to everyone (including yourself). You’re not scared by tasks where the goal is known but all of the means might not be identified yet. Many big IT Infrastructure projects have elements and dependencies to other areas than the one in topic, it’s therefore your responsibility to help us identify these so we can make qualified decisions.
