This is the first dedicated Project Manager this London studio has ever hired. What that means is simple: you aren’t inheriting someone else’s system; you’re building the one every project will run through.
The studio is the UK arm of a US-born creative company that has spent two decades resisting easy labels. Brand, strategy, creative technology and deep production, including VFX, live action, CGI, motion design sit under one roof, with a client roster that includes some of the most recognised technology, drinks and entertainment brands in the world.
The Role
You’ll own delivery for everything moving through the studio: the core is brand work across identity, design systems, and brand creation, with scope to stretch into campaign execution and motion design too. Where a project runs downstream into production, you’ll brief and hand off to specialist producers rather than owning the VFX yourself.
You are the primary relationship lead and the owner of resourcing for the team, so you’ll work alongside the global project-management function in New York, but London scheduling, timelines and client trust sit with you. Leadership holds long-term growth planning – your remit is pushing work successfully from brief to execution, and building the processes that let a scaling studio do that reliably.
The Package
- £50,000 – £60,000
- Hybrid working: three days a week in the office
The Person
- You’re a Senior Project Manager from a design-led brand agency or studio, several years in, used to running brand processes end-to-end and taking the production that follows when a client needs it.
- You sit comfortably in the triangle of project management, account management and production; you can anchor a studio without a project management peer group beside you, and you want the influence that comes with being first.
