Looking for a Junior Digital Project Manager to support the delivery of website and digital projects from concept to launch.

The client

The client, an independent agency, was initially founded as a branding and design agency over 20 years ago. Over recent years they’ve focussed more so on digital, specifically for corporate, B2B clients but across a variety of sectors, including bio-tech, financial, pharma, real-estate and more.

Despite the economic downturn, they’ve had a lot of continued success with clients, pushing into new areas and going through small but stable growth periods.

Approx. 30 people strong.

They ask for people in the office twice a week – anchor days are Tuesdays and Wednesdays, but these could change depending on when a client might need to do a workshop, for example.

Sponsorship is not available.
