Senior IT Project Manager, Nordics
About the Role
We are seeking a Senior IT Project Manager to lead and coordinate our multi-year transformation journey across the Nordic region. This transformation includes replacing the majority of our application landscape, including ERP and CRM.
You will be responsible for managing the overall programme of change across countries, ensuring strong governance, clear planning, and effective execution across all workstreams. The role requires close collaboration with business and IT stakeholders, as well as external vendors and global programme counterparts.
This is a pivotal role with broad responsibility-from enabling strategic change to ensuring day-to-day delivery clarity.
Key Responsibilities
- Enable and drive the Nordic transformation programme, incl. all related projects and acting as the central point of coordination across countries and domains.
- Lead effective programme governance, ensuring structure, reporting, and decision-making frameworks are in place and followed.
- Manage detailed planning across multiple workstreams, including ERP, CRM, integrations, data, and operational capabilities.
- Coordinate dependencies, timelines, and resource needs across projects and countries.
- Oversee and support change management activities.
- Ensure risks and issues are identified, tracked, and mitigated in a timely and structured manner.
- Oversee vendor relationships and performance to ensure delivery commitments are met.
- Align with global programme teams to ensure Nordic execution is integrated into broader enterprise plans.
- Communicate effectively with senior stakeholders, providing visibility into progress, challenges, and decisions.
- Help build internal capability and readiness to sustain transformation outcomes.
What We are Looking For
- Strong programme or large-scale project management experience, ideally in a business transformation context.
- Deep knowledge of project governance, planning, and risk management best practices.
- Proven ability to lead complex, multi-country initiatives with multiple interdependent workstreams.
- Solid understanding of change management principles. The ability to plan and perform change activities will be an advantage.
- Experience managing vendors or delivery partners in multi-stakeholder environments.
- Familiarity with ERP/CRM implementations and connected systems such as data platforms, digital solutions, or warehouse management.
- Comfortable working with project management tools and frameworks (e.g. Prince2, PMI) and reporting tools to manage delivery.
- Excellent communication, coordination, and stakeholder engagement skills.
- Ability to bring structure, clarity, and calm to dynamic or ambiguous situations.
