Certus Recruitment Group is proud to be partnering with a fast-growing, technology-led energy company that’s helping accelerate the global transition to renewables. Through data-driven trading and smart optimisation, they’re transforming how energy storage and renewable assets perform around the world.

As they continue to scale internationally, they’re looking for an experienced Technical Project Manager to join their UK team in Oxford. This is a fantastic opportunity to work on high-impact projects, collaborate with talented teams across the globe, and play a key role in shaping delivery processes for a truly mission-driven business.

Key Responsibilities

• Project Delivery: Drive the end-to-end delivery of multiple technical and product initiatives, ensuring timelines, scope, and quality targets are met.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner closely with Product Managers, Technical Leads, and Engineers across the UK and Australia to align objectives and maintain delivery momentum.
• Agile Management: Lead agile ceremonies — including sprint planning, backlog refinement, stand-ups, and retrospectives — to keep teams organised and focused.
• Scope and Planning: Support project initiation through clear definition of requirements, dependencies, and success criteria.
• Tracking & Reporting: Maintain visibility of all active projects through tools like JIRA, providing regular updates, dashboards, and performance reporting for leadership.
• Risk & Issue Management: Proactively identify potential blockers, dependencies, and delivery risks, and develop mitigation plans to keep projects on track.
• Process Improvement: Evaluate and refine delivery frameworks, ensuring the right balance between structure and agility.
• Stakeholder Communication: Build strong relationships across Product, Tech, and leadership teams, ensuring priorities and expectations are transparent and aligned.
• Release Coordination: Support release readiness and deployment planning, working with engineers and QA teams to ensure smooth rollouts.
• Continuous Development: Help evolve best practices in project governance, tooling, and delivery excellence across a growing global function.

What You’ll Bring

• 5+ years’ experience in Technical Project Management, ideally within software, data, or engineering-focused organisations.
• Proven ability to manage multiple concurrent projects and competing priorities.
• Strong understanding of Agile and hybrid delivery methodologies (Scrum, Kanban, or similar).
• Hands-on experience with JIRA, Confluence, and related workflow management tools.
• Excellent organisational and communication skills — able to distil complexity into clear actions and updates.
• Strong stakeholder management skills, with confidence engaging across technical and non-technical audiences.
• A proactive and pragmatic approach to problem solving, balancing structure with flexibility.
• Comfortable working across distributed teams and multiple time zones.
• Experience maturing project delivery practices or implementing lightweight governance frameworks.
• A background in energy, renewables, power trading, or data-driven technology is highly desirable.
• Formal certifications such as PMP, PMI-ACP, or CSM are advantageous but not required.
