What does the role entail?
Project Management & Client Relations
- Project coordination: As a Project Manager, you’ll be essential to ensuring the smooth and efficient delivery of projects. This includes meticulous planning and organisation, and proactive problem-solving to keep projects on track. You’ll be responsible for managing the end-to-end delivery of some projects, including client communication, while supporting the Senior Project Manager (SPM) and Senior Account Manager (SAM) on others.
- Resource management: You’ll play a key role in allocating design resources effectively, ensuring projects are appropriately staffed, and designers’ workloads are balanced. This involves collaborating closely with the SPM, monitoring project progress to maintain optimal efficiency, and flagging any potential capacity limits.
- Client communication: While the SAM handles primary client communication for most projects, you’ll take the lead on client communication for select projects, building rapport with the client, understanding their needs, and ensuring clear and timely updates. For projects where the SAM leads on client communication, you’ll support them by providing timely project updates and proactively identifying potential challenges.
- Quality assurance: You’ll maintain a keen eye for detail, reviewing assets for accuracy and ensuring deliverables meet the highest quality standards and client expectations.
