Mid-Weight Project Manager

↓

Hello, we're Impero →

We’re an independent, award-winning creative agency.

We work with high-profile, global brands such as George at ASDA, Chivas, Jameson, The Glenlivet, Aspall, Sue Ryder, Nike and a bunch of others. 

We’re pretty good at what we do. We’ve been nominated for two Agency of The Year(s) including The Drum DADI Agency of the Year in 2022. We were also shortlisted as Campaign Independent Agency of the Year and have been named Campaign Best Places to Work. We were awarded a Silver Arrow at the British Arrows Awards and are Campaign’s 2022 Global Integrated Agency of the Year. 

Next year, we have our sights set on a D&AD and/or Cannes Lion. 

There are about 40 of us, but that number grows all the time because we’re still young, ambitious and do great work.

We’re also 70% female with a 50/50 gender split on the senior team. We proudly have 100% pay parity, and it kind of annoys us that we even have to mention that as something unique within this industry.

We don’t like the ‘Old Guard’ of advertising. This is an agency that uses passion, ingenuity, and an anything-is-possible attitude to deliver work across all kinds of platforms. It’s one of the reasons why working here is a hell of a lot of fun. Everything’s to play for.

Not surprisingly, this is a growing agency, so we’re looking for a Mid-Weight Project Manager who wants to be part of and help drive that growth.

The role: →

As a Mid-weight Project Manager within the Delivery Team, you will be responsible for the day-to-day running of your projects. You need to be an integrated PM with experience in running full 360 campaigns.

You will support the Account Directors by managing key clients, pushing the agency to produce great client work and ultimately, helping bring your clients and their brand’s fame and glory.

This will include:

  • Confidently create project scoping documents and project plans
  • Monitor project performance and job health
  • Ensure projects are delivered to scope, budget and agreed time frames
  • Work with the Resource Manager to schedule studio resource
  • Work with clients and internal teams, from initial briefing to final delivery
  • Reporting to our Head of Project Management

 

You will be assessed against three main KPIs:

  • Deliver projects on time 100% of the time and to within 95% of the agreed budget
  • Build strong relationships internally, earning 80% positive peer feedback during reviews
  • Deliver SOW documents of up to £80k within an ETA of 3 working days

The type of people we want to meet: →

Above all, you’ll embody our core values of never letting your team down, being honest, doggedly determined, always on point and audaciously ambitious. 

You will have a hunger to build strong relationships, deliver exceptional work for your clients and be part of an amazing team. More so than this, you will have a willingness to learn things outside your wheelhouse and pick up skills quickly.

You will live and breathe great work. You will be energetic, fun to work with and always positive.

The Final Word: →

This is an awesome place to work. We’re in control of our own destiny. But it means we’re the only ones that can deliver it. We’re all massively ambitious and hard working. But it’s also fun. 

We all get along, there’s no politics, just heaps of passion. We’re the creative industry’s new guard. And it’s awesome.
