Project Manager at Xpertise, Greater Manchester, £700-£800 per day

Project Manager - CLM/Deals Governance/CRM Integration

Location: Hybrid (UK-based)

Day Rate: £700-£800 (Outside IR35)

I'm supporting a well-established organisation undertaking a significant transformation across legal, commercial, and operational processes. This is not a traditional IT Project Manager role. It sits at the centre of how the business governs deals, manages contracts, and scales internationally.

You'll play a key role in shaping and embedding a Deals Governance framework, delivering a Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) solution, and aligning commercial, legal, and technology processes across the organisation.

This role requires someone who can operate at a senior level, work across multiple business functions, and drive structure in an environment that is evolving.

What you'll do

• Lead the design and implementation of a Deals Governance framework, including approval workflows, controls, and escalation paths
• Own the end-to-end delivery of a Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) system, from requirements through to rollout and adoption
• Work closely with Legal, Sales, Commercial, Finance, and IT stakeholders to align governance with commercial objectives
• Drive standardisation and automation of contract processes to improve visibility, compliance, and efficiency
• Align and coordinate contract repositories, data standards, and governance models across the organisation
• Support international expansion by ensuring legal and contract processes are scalable and compliant across regions
• Work alongside CRM teams to ensure seamless integration between contract management and sales processes
• Lead stakeholder engagement, training, and change management to ensure adoption across the business

What we're looking for

• Proven experience delivering complex, cross-functional transformation programmes
• Strong background in contract lifecycle management, legal processes, or commercial governance
• Experience implementing CLM or contract management systems end-to-end
• Ability to operate across Legal, Sales, Commercial, and Technology teams
• Strong stakeholder management with the confidence to influence at senior level
• Experience driving change and embedding new processes within evolving environments

Nice to have:

• Experience in multinational or scaling organisations
• Exposure to CRM integrations and data governance
• PRINCE2, PMP, Agile or similar

This is a role for someone who can bring structure, challenge thinking, and deliver outcomes across multiple parts of the business, not just manage a plan.
