Project Manager

A innovative full service creative agency are looking to recruit an experienced Project Manager.  The agency work with an enviable client portfolio across the FMCG and entertainment sectors, creating integrated work that ranges from retail POS and print to social content and hi-end CGI.

The Project Manager will be responsible for managing and proactively driving forward all aspects of production across several FMCG accounts and projects. The work includes partnerships, promotions, retail, POS, toolkits and rollout, social and digital content, and microsite production. You may also be required to help the wider project management team on gaming and Ents accounts, where the output includes video production and key art.

Whilst candidates don’t have to have extensive pre-existing experience across all of these areas, we’re looking for someone who’s willing to roll their sleeves-up and get stuck in, bringing rigour, organisation and drive to projects, whilst upskilling on the intricacies of agency clients and output.

This role will involve close collaboration with Client Services, to interrogate and understand the briefs they bring in, ahead of planning resource with the Head of Studio. Then trafficking the agency’s delivery against briefs through the Studio, ensuring that work is delivered on time.

Whilst Client Services are primarily accountable for client relationships, this role is client-facing and will involve liaising directly with clients to share work and discuss amends and feedback, as well as managing third party suppliers. You should have experience in clearly and professionally communicating with multiple client stakeholders and be an expert in expectation management.
