You will efficiently manage a range of exciting creative projects from inception to delivery. You’ll be responsible for ensuring projects are delivered in line with a defined plan and will often report progress to the founders. As we are a small team, you may occasionally need to roll up your sleeves and help out other team members with tasks outside of your area of expertise such as proof-reading, site testing, content population etc. The role will be wide and varied and you will be expected to:

• Successfully manage projects and deliver them smoothly - on brief and on budget.
• Build and nurture key relationships with clients to fully understand the objectives of each project.
• Interpret project briefs and manage expectations, deliverables and challenges.
• Effectively brief tasks in to internal teams.
• Continuously follow-up on agreed activities, project budgets and reporting.
• Refine our workflow to help us deliver the best work in the most efficient way possible.
• Cultivate an efficient culture that allows dedicated time for creative thinking and personal development.

We’re looking for a supremely organised individual who can solve complex problems, break projects down into a clear set of priorities and stay calm while keeping lots of plates spinning at once. As with any organisational role, a love of lists and Gannt charts is essential. Just as important, however, is a positive, personable and upbeat nature - we’re looking for someone who enjoys working closely with other people, whether they be colleagues, collaborators or clients. You will have:

• Problem solving skills, with an ability to take the initiative and find workable solutions to daily agency challenges.
• An eye for detail, with the rigour to review proposals and presentations.
• An understanding of digital / web development workflows and processes.
• Self-motivation and a pro-active attitude to delivering projects.
• Excellent interpersonal skills.
• At least three years experience working in a design / brand / digital agency environment (essential).
• Previous experience managing both digital and design projects (essential).
