Senior Project Manager
Join Schneider Electric's Process Automation business as a Senior Project Manager and take the lead on large-scale, high-value industrial automation projects across the UK and Europe.
Based in Warrington (hybrid 2 to 3 days per week in the office), you'll manage high-complexity delivery projects for customers in sectors like oil & gas, pharma, water, food & beverage, and more. These projects typically include DCS, SCADA, PLC, Safety, Cyber Security, and Digital solutions.

We offer a hybrid working model with international collaboration and occasional travel (approx. 10%).
What we're looking for:
- Strong industrial project management experience.
- Experience delivering automation/control projects (DCS, SCADA, Safety, PLC)
- Background in high-risk, high-value project environments
- PMP or other formal PM qualification (preferred)
- Confidence leading multi-disciplinary internal and external teams
- Excellent stakeholder communication skills
- Comfortable with some travel across UK and Europe
If you're ready to take ownership of high-impact projects in a collaborative, global business, we'd love to hear from you.
What we offer you:
Competitive salary & Bonus Scheme, 28 Days Annual Leave + Public Holidays, Holiday Buy & Sell programme, Pension Scheme, Employee Share Ownership Programme, Various Health & Wellbeing Support Options, Gym Flex, Open Talent Market (internal mobility opportunities + access to mentors & projects globally), Shopping & Dining Discounts, Learning Portal and much more.
