OperationsProject Manager

At Motorola Solutions, we believe that everything starts with our people. We’re a global close-knit community, united by the relentless pursuit to help keep people safer everywhere. We build and connect technologies to help protect people, property and places. Our solutions foster the collaboration that’s critical for safer communities, safer schools, safer hospitals, safer businesses, and ultimately, safer nations. Connect with a career that matters, and help us build a safer future.

On any given day, every moment matters to someone, somewhere. And every moment, Motorola Solutions’ innovations, products and services play essential roles in people’s lives. We help firefighters see around buildings and police officers see around street corners. We keep utility workers connected and visible to each other with real-time voice and data communication across the smart grid. And we provide the situational awareness first responders need when a moment brings catastrophe. We help people be their best in their moments that matter.

Our Deployment team works on the Pronto Digital Policing app.

Pronto is the most popular mobile policing application in the UK, trusted by over half of the UK’s 45 police forces - and used by around 75,000 police officers on a daily basis. Pronto has been designed with and for front line operational users. As a result, it is an intuitive solution, with positive adoption, excellent user compliance and consistently positive feedback.

Based in the West End of Glasgow, we currently have around 100 employees. Our team started as Kelvin Connect in 2002, a spin-out company from the University of Glasgow. Now, as part of Motorola Solutions, we continue to expand with future opportunities in the UK and beyond.

You’ll work as part of an agile squad, taking part in sprint planning sessions, daily scrums and sprint reviews and retrospectives. You’ll have the opportunity to join us at social events like go-karting, clay pigeon shooting or come along for a drink with us after work on a Friday.

The Technical Project Manager will work within a squad of other Technical Project Managers, software engineers and quality assurance engineers. As part of this squad they will oversee and share tasks for a number of projects with the other Technical Project Managers.
