Project Manager – MS Dynamics 365

Contract type:Fixed Term (12 months), full time

Reports to:Head of IT Project Delivery

Location:Premier League Offices, Paddington, W2 1HQ

Overview

How The Premier League are seeking a dynamic and experienced Microsoft Dynamics 365 Project Manager to lead a technology transformation programme that supports the League’s operational excellence, governance, commercial ambitions and world class competition management.

Working at the Premier League means operating within an environment recognised worldwide for its sporting integrity, global reach and commercial strength. 

Critically, this role necessitates flexibility and a willingness to occasionally work at the coal face, combining hand on tasks often associated with Business Analysts, with strategic engagement, supporting the Premier League’s D365 implementation. 

As a D365 Project Manager, you will guide initiatives from strategic definition through delivery, ensuring solutions meet the Premier League’s requirements - spanning finance, governance, regulatory reporting and commercial operations.


The Premier League is home to some of the most competitive and compelling football in the world. The League and its Clubs use the power and popularity of the competition to inspire fans, communities and partners in the UK and across the world. The Premier League brings people together from all backgrounds. It is a competition for everyone, everywhere and is available to watch in over 900 million homes in 189 countries.

We have a wide variety of responsibilities. These include organising the competition and its Handbook as well as managing the centralised broadcast and commercial rights. The work we do in conjunction with the Clubs also goes far beyond the 90 minutes. We support and provide a framework for youth development, we protect the organisation’s intellectual property, support the wider game and community programmes, undertake international development work and liaise with governing bodies and other leagues.

The Premier League is an equal opportunities employer and strives to create an inclusive culture where talent can flourish. We believe in the potential of everyone and open our doors to those who share those values. All appointments will be made based on merit; however, we particularly encourage applications from women, people from minority ethnic communities, LGBTQ+ people and disabled people.

Our hybrid-working model also allows you some variety on your place of work, offering you the chance to work from home on some days each week. Where possible, you will attend the office or site visits in line with our company policy. All staff liaise closely with their line manager to manage their time appropriately and according to their work and team requirements.
