Technical Project Manager

Schedule: Monday-Friday, 4:00 PM - 1:00 AM Manila Time

We're building a Manila-based technical project delivery capability to support UK customers, and we are looking for a Technical Project Manager with a strong engineering background to join the team.

This is not a coordination-only PM role. We are specifically looking for someone who can talk tech as confidently as they talk project. The role suits someone who started their career in hands-on MSP delivery and later moved into project management, while retaining a deep understanding of how infrastructure and cloud projects are actually delivered.

You will take full ownership of IT infrastructure, cloud, and workplace projects for UK customers. Although you will not be hands-on with delivery, you will be expected to understand, challenge, and discuss technical decisions, recognise delivery risks early, and help unblock implementation issues through technical insight rather than escalation alone.

This role is based in our modern Ortigas location, following mainly UK business hours.

• You will own the end-to-end delivery of small and medium-complexity IT projects and contribute as a billable Technical Project Manager on larger engagements. This includes planning and managing schedules, risks, dependencies, and milestones, as well as maintaining clear ownership of delivery outcomes and customer expectations.
• You will act as a technically credible delivery lead, working closely with Manila-based engineers, UK Project Managers, and UK customers. You’ll be comfortable engaging in detailed technical discussions around solution approaches, sequencing, constraints, and trade-offs, while leaving final design and implementation ownership with the engineering teams.
• Strong documentation ownership is a core part of the role. You will be responsible for maintaining project plans, RAID logs, delivery notes, and handover documentation, ensuring projects transition cleanly into support or operational teams. You’ll also maintain commercial awareness around scope, milestones, and billing triggers, without holding full budget ownership

• The projects you deliver will typically involve Microsoft 365, Azure, cloud infrastructure, end user device and workplace technologies, server deployments, cybersecurity tooling implementations, and structured onboarding and offboarding work. You’ll also need a solid grasp of the networking and identity concepts common in MSP environments.

• This role is intended for engineers who have moved into project management.
• You must have previously worked hands-on in a technical role within an MSP or infrastructure delivery environment, with Project Engineer experience strongly preferred. Infrastructure or implementation engineering backgrounds are also suitable, provided they relate to infrastructure, cloud, or workplace delivery rather than software development.
• You will have delivered IT infrastructure, cloud, or workplace projects and be able to explain those projects in technical detail. During interview, we will expect you to discuss delivery challenges, technical decisions, constraints, and trade-offs — not just timelines and stakeholder management.
• Typically, candidates will have around five or more years’ experience in project delivery or project management roles. However, candidates with two to three years’ PM experience may be considered if they bring strong technical depth and delivery maturity.
• This role is not suitable for candidates whose background is primarily in software development delivery, solutions architecture or pre-sales, or service desk-only roles.

• Hybrid (once a week onsite)
• Comprehensive HMO coverage
• Exciting learning and career growth opportunities
• Seamless HR experience with Cloud HR (Sprout)
• Above-standard leave benefits
