Our client is a small, creative and refreshing digital agency with a commitment to great service and high quality work. Founded by impressive Directors with big agency backgrounds, the agency has a lovely ‘family’ feel amongst their staff, a loyal and long-term client base and a philosophy that prioritises a human-centred, friendly approach.
Due to expanding workload from existing and new clients, the agency is looking to hire a Project Manager, initially on a 3 month contract but with a view to a longer term, ideally permanent, commitment. The PM will have some good digital agency experience under their belts and have managed small to medium sized digital projects autonomously, from end to end, for recognisable brands or large organisations. Digital campaigns, microsites and games will feature on your CV, but it’s also important to have some larger web build exposure too, and an understanding of CMS-driven sites.
Whilst you won’t be a slave to process and documentation, you must be naturally very organised and able to ‘button down’ the detail. It’s important that you have experience of producing a definitive SOW on your projects, be able to plan and manage budgets and schedules and be familiar with Basecamp and MS Project. Crucially, too, you must be client facing and have impeccable communication skills with the ability to judge a situation and a personality and to adapt your communication skills accordingly.
You’ll be working with a small but highly talented team of designers and developers and must have proven abilities in briefing and managing internal resources, plus an appreciation of good design and a strong understanding of digital technologies. Any UX skills would be helpful too, such as basic wireframing abilities and an understanding of usability testing processes.
Based in cool offices in Shoreditch, this post is initially offered on a 3 month contract on a pro rata salary of up to £30k, with a strong possibility of converting to permanent. Start date is as soon as possible, so please don’t hesitate to get in touch if this sounds like you.
