Bauer Media Outdoor (BMO) is one of the UK’s leading Out of Home media owners and infrastructure companies, with more than 33,000 advertising sites in our portfolio. Our talented team of over 600+ people work in 14 locations across the country creating and delivering some of the most memorable advertising campaigns in the UK. The BMO Way helps us deliver more impact for advertisers, more value for communities and less impact on our planet.

About the Role

We are looking for an experienced Project Manager to lead the mobilisation of a large-scale contract over a 6-month period. This is a pivotal role, responsible for owning and driving the mobilisation project plan to get us ready for a potential 1st January 2027 go-live date.

You will coordinate multiple cross-functional workstreams – including Partnerships, Construction, Delivery, Product Development, Sales, Tech, Finance, and People – ensuring timelines, dependencies, risks, and stakeholders remain fully aligned throughout the mobilisation phase.

This is a hands-on, high-impact role for a qualified project manager who thrives in complex, fast-paced environments, enjoys working across diverse teams, and is willing to roll up their sleeves and get involved when needed.

Key Responsibilities

  • Own the mobilisation project plan
  • Coordinate cross-functional workstreams
  • Manage timelines, dependencies, and scope
  • Risk, Assumptions, Issues, and Dependencies (RAID) management
  • Stakeholder management and communication
  • Governance and reporting
  • Readiness for go-live

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
