Qualifications/certifications in project management methodologies are essential.

As the successful candidate will be joining an established project, it will be expected that you will hit the ground running, contributing from the outset to the Project Delivery team's ability to implement change and manage software deliverables.
With an impeccable attention to detail, influential communication skills and a willingness to engage, manage and lead a diverse team and wider range of stakeholders, you will be confident in your ability to integrate seamlessly into this established software project and into the Brave culture at large.
