Are you a Junior/Graduate Project Manager with at least 1 year of practical work experience and a formal qualification, looking for your first big "ownership" role? This global engineering firm has a rare opportunity for someone at the start of their career to lead cross-functional projects end-to-end, from initial planning right through to production and customer delivery.
Salary £40-45,000 with excellent benefits package, working Monday to Friday on site near Middlesbrough with a lunchtime finish on Fridays. You won't just be a "coordinator" here, but a proper PM: you will be the face of the project to global customers and the glue that holds Engineering, Manufacturing, and Finance together.
What You'll Be Doing:
- Leading the planning and delivery of multiple projects (both internal R&D and external customer contracts).
- Working "hands-on" with Engineering and Manufacturing to ensure products meet time, cost, and quality benchmarks.
- Providing frequent updates and managing expectations for both internal leadership and external clients.
- Managing project budgets, revenue forecasting, and proactively mitigating risks before they become issues.
What You Need:
- Minimum of 1 year's Project Management experience in engineering, manufacturing, or similar (perfect for a placement year student or recent grad).
- You must hold a formal Project Management qualification (e.g., APM, PRINCE2, or Agile).
- Strong communication, an analytical mindset, and the ability to manage a schedule.
- You must be a UK citizen / British passport holder due to security clearance requirements.
Why You Will Love This Job:
- Early finish every Friday, free onsite parking.
- 32 days annual leave (inclusive of bank holidays, rising to 37 with service), plus your Birthday and Christmas Eve off.
- Company profit-share scheme which pays out annually and a 7% employer pension contribution.
- Private healthcare cash plan, GP24 service, and enhanced sick pay/maternity/paternity leave.
- Full CPD support and your annual professional body subscriptions covered.
If you have the qualification, the drive, and at least a year of experience, this is the perfect place to be.
