Project & Platforms Communications Manager- London, Leeds, Manchester or Newcastle

At Credera, we are passionate about helping clients deliver complex, business-critical transformation projects. Our clients are some of the biggest names in industry and our projects are every bit as challenging as you’d find in large consulting firms.

As a Managing Consultant you will have the opportunity to play an important part in shaping and developing our Programme Leadership capability, with the support of an established and well positioned company with an impeccable track record and customer base.
