Global Manufacturing Environment

Are you a fully evolved Project Manager — someone who genuinely enjoys leading complex projects and bringing order to ambiguity?

We’re looking for a confident, structured, and commercially aware Senior Project Manager to lead high-impact product development and manufacturing programmes in an international environment.

This is not a role for someone who “moved into PM by accident.” We’re looking for someone who has developed into a well-rounded project leader — comfortable balancing clients, engineers, manufacturers, timelines, risk, and governance.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Leading end-to-end product development and manufacturing projects
  • Acting as the primary interface between clients and cross-functional delivery teams
  • Managing timelines, risk, reporting, and stakeholder expectations
  • Experience working with high volume manufacture
  • Applying Waterfall, Agile, or hybrid methodologies pragmatically — knowing when to follow the rules and when to flex them
  • Physical Engineering Domain knowledge
  • Ensuring strong documentation, governance, and visibility across programmes
  • Working closely with international (including Asian) manufacturing teams

What We’re Looking For

✔ Proven experience delivering complex technical or manufacturing projects

✔ You will be working across clients in the medical, industrial, automtovie, Energy/Batteries, consumer electronics and retail sectors so experience working in at least some of these sectors is required

✔ Strong understanding of both Waterfall and Agile methodologies

✔ Experience working with Asian manufacturers (highly advantageous)

✔ Excellent communication skills — equally comfortable with clients and engineers

✔ Ability to work autonomously while maintaining high levels of reporting and transparency

✔ Background in structured, documentation-heavy industries such as automotive, aerospace, medical, or similar

An engineering background is welcome — but being a brilliant engineer isn’t the same as being a brilliant Project Manager. What matters most is your leadership maturity and delivery mindset.

Why Apply?

  • Salary up to £65,000 + annual bonus
  • High autonomy and real ownership
  • Majority Remote working (once a month onsite in London)
  • International exposure
  • Complex, bespoke projects
  • A business that values structure, discipline, and smart decision-making

If you enjoy leading challenging programmes and working across global manufacturing teams, this could be your next step.
