The Opportunity for you…

Are you an IT Project Manager with experience in the MSP or IT services space, looking to join a business that is growing rapidly and investing properly in delivery?

Due to continued growth, our client is looking to add an IT Project Manager to their team. Over the past 18 months, this MSP has acquired three businesses and show no sign of slowing down. With that growth comes an increased volume of client-facing project work, and the need for a dedicated Project Manager to take ownership of delivery.

This is a newly introduced role within the business and a key hire as they continue to scale.

The Role

As the IT Project Manager, you’ll be responsible for the end-to-end delivery of multiple concurrent IT projects for external clients. You’ll work closely with internal technical teams, third-party suppliers, and customers to ensure projects are delivered on time, within scope, and to budget.

Projects will typically include Microsoft cloud migrations, infrastructure upgrades, hardware rollouts, cybersecurity initiatives, and the onboarding and integration of newly acquired businesses. You’ll be the main point of contact for clients throughout the project lifecycle and will be trusted to manage expectations and keep delivery on track.

This is a hands-on role within a busy MSP environment, so you’ll need to be comfortable juggling priorities and adapting as the business continues to evolve.

The Environment

This MSP supports a growing SME customer base across the UK and operates across multiple offices. The introduction of a dedicated PM is a big step for the business and a sign of their commitment to improving structure, visibility, and client experience across project delivery.

There is genuine opportunity here to influence how projects are run as the organisation continues to grow through acquisition.

What They’re Looking For

We’re after someone who has experience delivering IT projects within an MSP or IT services environment and can come in and make an impact. You’ll need to be confident dealing with clients, comfortable managing multiple projects at once, and organised enough to keep everything moving.

Certs such as Prince2 are beneficial but not essential – attitude, experience, and the ability to deliver in a client-facing MSP setting are far more important.

Package

This role is paying between £37,000 and £45,000, depending on experience. Benefits include company pension, 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays, additional leave options and more.

There is investment in training and development, and flexible working may be considered following probation.

Next steps…

If this sounds like something you’d be interested in, you have three options:

Call Joe White at CRG TEC to find out more. I’m very open about the role, the business, and what they’re looking for, so if you need to understand more before committing, no problem at all.

If you’re happy with what you’ve read, attach a copy of your CV to this advert and Joe White will give you a call to discuss further or get back to you if it’s not quite the right fit.

We look forward to hearing from you

How Many Cyber Security Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a Cyber Security Job?

If you are trying to build or move forward in a cyber security career, it can feel like the list of tools you are expected to know never ends. One job advert asks for SIEM platforms, another mentions penetration testing tools, another lists cloud security, threat intelligence platforms, endpoint detection, scripting languages and compliance frameworks. Scroll LinkedIn and it gets worse. Everyone seems to “know” dozens of tools, certifications and platforms. Here is the reality most cyber security hiring managers agree on: they are not hiring you because you know every tool. They are hiring you because you understand risk, can think like an attacker and a defender, follow process, communicate clearly and make good decisions under pressure. Tools matter — but only when they support those outcomes. So how many cyber security tools do you actually need to know to get a job? For most job seekers, the answer is far fewer than you think. This article explains what employers really expect, which tools are essential, which are role-specific and how to focus your learning so you look credible, not overwhelmed.

The Skills Gap in Cyber Security Jobs: What Universities Aren’t Teaching

Cyber security has become one of the most critical disciplines in the modern economy. From protecting financial systems and healthcare data to securing national infrastructure, cloud platforms and supply chains, cyber security professionals now sit at the frontline of digital trust. Demand for cyber security talent in the UK has surged. Job vacancies remain high, salaries continue to rise, and organisations across every sector report difficulty hiring skilled professionals. Yet despite this demand, many graduates struggle to break into cyber security roles and employers consistently report that candidates are not job-ready. The problem is not intelligence, ambition or academic effort. It is a persistent and widening skills gap between university education and real-world cyber security work. This article explores that gap in depth: what universities teach well, what they routinely miss, why the gap exists, what employers actually want, and how jobseekers can bridge the divide to build sustainable careers in cyber security.
