This multi-year initiative will design, build, and operationalize a Digital Twin platform that integrates geospatial data, real-time IoT/SCADA feeds, asset information, and core enterprise systems to enable data-driven planning, operations, and maintenance. The role will work closely with the Project Manager and a team of international experts, developers, and engineers.

The scope spans discovery and stakeholder engagement, requirements and architecture design, proof-of-concept delivery, implementation of a production-grade environment, post-implementation support, and structured training and knowledge transfer. The Assistant Project Manager will help coordinate cross-functional teams and vendors, support stakeholder management activities, contribute to project planning and reporting, and assist in driving successful delivery against time, budget, quality, and benefits targets.

• Help coordinate activities of the international project team (consultants, solution architects, data engineers, developers, GIS/IoT specialists, trainers) and external vendors
• Support stakeholder engagement across multiple client entities, including helping to organise workshops, capture requirements, and document decisions and actions
• Assist in coordinating the development of functional and non-functional requirements, solution and data architecture artefacts, and integration designs for the Digital Twin platform
• Support the setup and execution of the Proof of Concept by tracking tasks, dependencies, and validation activities for key use cases and data flows
• Assist in planning and tracking the transition from PoC to a production-grade environment, including platform build, integrations, testing, and go-live readiness
• Support the organisation and tracking of post-implementation support activities, including warranty services, incident and problem management, and minor enhancements
• Assist in planning and coordinating training and knowledge transfer activities, and in collating feedback to improve client adoption
• Prepare draft status reports, presentations, and other project communications for review by the Project Manager and presentation to Parsons and client stakeholders

What Required Skills You'll Bring:

• Working knowledge of the Esri ArcGIS platform and software (e.g., ArcGIS Enterprise, ArcGIS Online, ArcGIS Pro, web maps/apps)
• Exposure to solutions that integrate ArcGIS with enterprise and operational systems (e.g., CMMS/EAM, ERP, BIM, SCADA/IoT platforms, data warehouses/lakes)
• Basic understanding of systems integration concepts and technologies (APIs, web services, message queues, event-driven architectures)
• Familiarity with data and information architecture concepts, particularly geospatial, time-series, and asset/linear network data
• Awareness of building data models for analysis or simulation is an advantage
• Experience working within multidisciplinary, multinational teams across multiple time zones
• Strong organisational and coordination skills, with some experience in project planning and control (scope, schedule, risks, issues), preferably using formal methodologies (e.g., PMI, PRINCE2, Agile/Hybrid)
• Exposure to testing, acceptance, or go-live activities for complex or integrated systems
• Excellent communication and documentation skills, with the ability to clearly convey technical information to non-technical stakeholders
• Fluency in both spoken and written English and Arabic is required
