Digital Project Executive/ Junior Digital PM | Manchester city centre (1 Day/Week) | £28K FTC

*This is a 12-month fixed term contract, £28,000 per annum*

Great opportunity for a junior PM or recent graduate looking to get stuck into a proper data transformation project with a household name brand.

What's Going On

Our client is in the middle of consolidating all their customer data into one platform, you’ll work as part of a big migration project working with external suppliers. They need someone to support the Project Lead day-to-day and make sure everything runs smoothly through to handover.

It's a proper hands-on role. You'll be the one keeping tabs on suppliers, chasing up stakeholders, sorting out blockers, and making sure all the project documentation is actually up to date (risk logs, decision logs, migration plans - the works).

Day to Day

You'll be reporting directly to the Project Lead and helping them keep the whole thing on track:

• Managing the external supplier, making sure they're delivering what they said they would, when they said they would
• Coordinating with internal teams and other suppliers to unblock issues
• Running and attending workshops
• Keeping all the project docs current and accurate
• Tracking milestone payments
• Getting involved in the handover planning: test strategies, training materials, BAU transition

Basically, being proactive and making sure nothing falls through the cracks.

What They're After

You'll either have a couple of years doing project support/coordination, or you're a recent grad with some data or digital experience. You will communicate well, be organised and you'll fit in with the team.

Nice to have experience with data platforms or customer insight tools, but not essential.

What’s in it for you?

• Based in central Manchester but only in the office once a week
• £28K + benefits including free transport
• 12-month fixed term to cover the project implementation
• Other benefits include wellbeing support, retail/ lifestyle discounts, generous annual leave

If you're looking for something where you'll actually learn a lot and get real responsibility (not just sitting in meetings taking notes), this could be the role for you.
