Interim Project Manager – Technology Enabled Care (TEC) Store

3-month contract | Completion by end of March 2026 | Location: Flexible

Salary : £350-£450 per day - DOE

We’re looking for an experienced Project Manager to lead a short-term piece of work focused on improving how our Technology Enabled Care (TEC) store operates.

This isn’t about managing a huge warehouse — we currently have around 60 stock items and a total of about 800 individual pieces of equipment — but it’s a critical project to get our systems, processes and reporting properly set up for the future.

We have the funding available, but it needs to be delivered within this financial year, so the timeline is clear: 3 months, start to finish.

The purpose

To enhance the efficiency, control and scalability of the TEC store by implementing a robust stock management system, streamlined operational processes and effective reporting frameworks.

Key responsibilities

• Assess current workflows and identify areas for improvement.
• Configure and implement the UMO platform to manage stock and service delivery.
• Import and refine inventory data, creating clear and usable status categories.
• Establish consistent processes for tracking, maintenance and lifecycle management.
• Develop clear reporting dashboards and templates for performance monitoring, compliance and financial reporting.
• Create documentation, process maps and handover materials for long-term use.

You’ll work closely with

• TEC service leads and frontline teams.
• Finance colleagues and external suppliers as needed.

Deliverables

• Documented operational process maps.
• UMO platform implemented for stock control and coordination.
• Standardised dashboards and reporting tools (e.g. stock management, equipment status, write-offs).
• Training materials and a smooth handover for permanent staff.

Timeline

• Weeks 1–3: Assessment and design
• Weeks 4–8: Implementation and testing
• Weeks 9–10: Training and handover
• Weeks 11–12: Monitoring and review

All completed by March 2026.

What success looks like

• Streamlined and reliable stock control processes.
• Improved visibility and reporting on key metrics.
• Reduced write-offs and manual work.
• Positive feedback from staff and stakeholders.

About you

You’ll be someone who can confidently lead and deliver an operational improvement project from start to finish.

Experience in setting up stock or inventory management systems is key — ideally with knowledge of UMO or similar platforms.

You’ll also be comfortable engaging across teams, managing timelines, and translating operational needs into workable systems.

Budget

We’re open to discussion. Tell us your day rate or project fee expectations — we’re more interested in the right person and the right outcome than setting a rigid number.
