Project Manager

If youre after a Project Manager role that actually means something, here it is.

Youll lead programmes that move from concept to production: not PowerPoint projects that never leave the spreadsheet.

Youll be trusted to run the show: keep suppliers in check, manage budgets that dont magically grow, and make sure deadlines dont drift into next year. In short: deliver projects properly.

What Youll Do

• Take ownership of cross:functional automotive projects from concept through to launch
• Act as the main customer contact: the person who makes things happen, not excuses
• Keep budgets tight and forecasts honest (prototypes, tooling, costs, the lot)
• Build and maintain realistic timing plans and hold people accountable to them
• Spot risks early, fix them fast, and dont hide the bad news
• Oversee pre:production builds and coordinate manufacturing and engineering activities

What Youll Bring

• Proven automotive project management experience, ideally within a Tier 1 supplier
• A technical degree or equivalent hands:on background in engineering or manufacturing
• Practical project management know:how (PRINCE2, MS Project etc. are fine, but common sense is better)
• The ability to communicate clearly: with engineers, customers, and senior stakeholders
• A calm head, a bit of backbone, and the ability to keep projects moving when pressures on

The Company

A long:established, forward:thinking automotive manufacturer supplying premium OEMs. They care about doing things properly: quality engineering, smart project delivery, and long:term partnerships that actually work.

Location

Buckingham: within easy reach of Milton Keynes, Bicester, Banbury, Aylesbury, and the surrounding area.
