For one of our Clients operating in the global financial services sector, we are seeking talented professionals to join long-term strategic initiatives.

The role is responsible for coordinating the EOS transition programme from a project perspective, supporting the migration of workloads from VMware vSphere to Red Hat OpenShift. This includes developing the transition roadmap, coordinating delivery across technical and business teams, managing dependencies and risks, and ensuring that workloads are migrated in a controlled and auditable manner.

You will coordinate the complete migration lifecycle—from discovery and readiness assessment through testing, cutover, operational acceptance and legacy-platform decommissioning. Success will depend on strong programme coordination, effective stakeholder management and the ability to bring infrastructure, application, security, architecture and operations teams together around clear milestones and decisions.


Ideal candidate should have:

  • Proven experience coordinating complex technology transformation and migration projects in enterprise environments.
  • Experience leading the transition of workloads from VMware vSphere to Red Hat OpenShift, from planning through execution and operational handover.
  • Strong understanding of both virtualisation and container platforms, including vSphere, ESXi, vCenter, clusters, networking and storage
  • OpenShift architecture, projects/namespaces, workloads, routes, storage and security concepts
  • Application dependencies, interfaces, databases, monitoring, backup and recovery requirements
  • Ability to develop and maintain an integrated transition roadmap covering assessment, design, build, migration waves, testing, cutover and decommissioning.
  • Experience coordinating application, infrastructure, platform, network, storage, security, architecture and operations teams.
  • Strong dependency-management skills, ensuring that technical prerequisites, application readiness and operational requirements are understood and tracked.
  • Experience defining migration waves, prioritising workloads and coordinating migration activities with minimal disruption to business services.
  • Strong understanding of migration planning, including Workload discovery and classification; Application and infrastructure dependency mapping; Compatibility and readiness assessments; Capacity and performance planning; Security and compliance requirements; Cutover, rollback and recovery planning
  • Proven ability to manage project risks, issues, assumptions, dependencies and decisions, with clear escalation where required.
  • Experience coordinating testing activities, including functional, integration, performance, resilience and operational-acceptance testing.
  • Strong governance and reporting skills, including preparation of status reports, steering-committee materials, milestone tracking and management information.
  • Experience managing project plans, deliverables, actions and decision logs using appropriate project-management tools.
  • Ability to coordinate change-management activities, ensuring that migration changes are assessed, approved, scheduled and communicated in line with established processes.
  • Experience planning and coordinating operational handover, including support models, documentation, monitoring, backup, patching, incident procedures and service acceptance.
  • Understanding of financial, licensing and capacity considerations associated with platform transformation and decommissioning legacy infrastructure.
  • Strong stakeholder-management and communication skills, with the ability to translate technical topics into clear project-level decisions.
  • A structured, delivery-focused and collaborative approach, with clear ownership of outcomes and the ability to drive progress across organisational boundaries.
  • Very good English-language skills, both written and spoken.

Nice to have:

  • Strong communication and teamwork skills
  • Analytical and solution-oriented approach to work.
  • Knowledge/experience working with collaboration tools (Jira, Confluence, Service Now)
  • Knowledge of German language (spoken) would be a plus.
