The role

We’re looking for a Senior Project Manager to join our team and make some excellent work. You’ll help us deliver a Global Brand Advocacy initiative for one of the best-known technology brands in the world.

As a Senior Project Manager, you will lead projects from scoping to execution. You will ensure the work is of the highest standard, fulfilling the brief, delivered on time and within budget. To do this, you will work collaboratively with a Project Director, Business Leadership, Strategy, Creative and other Dentsu departments, external agencies, and clients.

In addition to this you will own the project finances, resource planning and capacity management - helping to ensure that your projects are resourced effectively, and capacity is managed for the varied roles within the agency team.

Employee engagement, training and Brand Advocacy is our heartland, enabling staff retention, product knowledge and growth of our clients’ key services. In any one day we deliver training experiences, partner staff events and drive innovation that matches the ambition of our client’s business on a global scale. Along with being a reliable team player, a love of technology and creativity is a must for this role. At any one time we’re working on multiple fast paced projects as part of wider programme, so being able to deliver at scale is key.

You will be a creative thinker who also gets a kick out of being organised – making things run smoothly and efficiently comes as second nature to you. A natural love of process and documentation, a keen eye for detail and a great communicator.
