Project Manager | London

Job Description

At TMP Worldwide, we're all about outthinking the competition. Stand-out social media films, experiential campaigns, witty one-liners. And while creativity might steal the spotlight – truthfully, none of it would be possible without our Project Managers keeping the show running. Making sure that our creatives' concepts don't run too wild, that they stick to brief, budget and deadline.

Our huge range of work means all kinds of deadlines to meet. Things move fast around here. And our Project Managers get stuck into getting all kinds of projects up and running. You could be working on increasing diversity hires in the tech industry in the morning, and a campaign to recognise the hard graft of nurses in the afternoon.

Join us and you'll be part of the wider People Scout company, a global, fast paced business with enormous potential for growth. Our diverse and enviable client list puts their faith in us because of our track record of award-winning digital and creative campaigns.

What you'll do

It's not just about delegation and progress tracking. To be honest, it's real graft with not a lot of glory. But, if you do this job, you can take real pride in finding the best ways to make things happen. From web builds and ambient events to global employer brands, you'll turn your hand to a variety of situations. You will have some client contact but mostly you'll work with colleagues in Client Services, Creative, Insight and Tech to name a few. So, you'll need to understand how each area works. And there'll always be something new to learn.

Great people skills are key. To keep things on track and on budget, you'll need to be firm but fair and know when you need to stand your ground or strike a compromise. You'll find a strong sense of team here, with a PM community who share their experiences and learn from each other. 

Who you are

Creative chaos is opportunity in disguise. This is the chance to tackle problems and knock heads together until a solution – a great one – is reached. To be part of the team, you'll bring analytical problem-solving, exceptional organisational ability, attention to even the smallest details, and confident communication skills. You're a flexible, agile thinker with bundles of patience and common sense.

Relevant industry experience helps, sure. But many of our best project managers joined as high potential graduates from different sectors than ours. If you're a fast learner, keen to outthink the competition, and able to work at pace whilst maintaining high standards, you'll fit right in. We'll help you to grow your understanding of different products and solutions. Plus, we're a friendly bunch and come highly competitive rewards package.

What's in it for me?

As a PeopleScout employee, you're set to gain so much from being part of our team, including:

• Time off to rest, recover or conquer items on the bucket list through our 27 days holiday (+ 8 bank holidays) and our holiday purchase benefit
• Great company paid benefits including private medical insurance*, health cash plan, life assurance, company pension and access to an Employee Assistance Programme
