Head of Project Management

Here at Technimove we strongly believe in our core values of Purpose, People and Passion.

As the market leader in Data Centre Transformations, our Purpose is to deliver our core transformational services to many of the world's leading I.T. service providers worldwide.

Our biggest asset is without a doubt our People, or TechniPeople as we like to say!

We operate a fantastic internal development programme, including apprenticeships, to provide team members with the opportunity to really spread their wings and progress within the Company. We strive to create an environment where People thrive and are working to their strengths for maximum success.

All of this of course could not be done with Passion. Everyone here at Technimove is on board for the journey, and in short we love what we do! We are looking for individuals who would be interested in being part of Technimove's future success, whilst developing themselves and growing alongside us.
