We are looking for a talented and ambitious new Technical Project Manager to join the Compucorp team.
Your role will be to manage complex digital projects, working closely with the client, Product Team Lead and development team to keep them on course and to give an outstanding client experience. You will be the key client contact with overall ownership of the timeline and budget, with a focus on translating (sometimes complex!) client needs into actionable tasks for the team.
The role will span the full project lifecycle, including discovery, specification, configuration and the management of development tasks, so expect each day to be a little bit different and to be quite “hands on”. Our client projects often (but not always) run in a waterfall process, whereas internally we adopt agile methodologies so an understanding of both processes would be desirable.
We’re a very process driven team who always seek to do things “the right way”, and we’re looking for people who can both contribute to ensuring those processes are followed but also help us to develop and refine new processes to ensure that we continue to deliver the highest quality product and service to our clients and to the sector as a whole.
In short, we’re a team of self-confessed geeks who love tinkering and tweaking until something is just right, and we’re looking for someone with the same “can do” attitude to join our growing team.
Key responsibilities:
- Managing day-to-day communication with clients
- Configuring sites and CRM based on specification
- Managing/Prioritising the project ticket backlog for agile sprints
- Managing project timelines
- Managing project performance against budget
- Assist and in due course manage client discovery workshops to understand user needs
- Assist in development of and in due course produce client requirement specifications
What we value in this role:
- You love the challenge of making complex things simple
- You can convey complex concepts clearly to other team members
- You’re someone who likes to implement processes and ensure they are followed
- You seek to learn from others as well as share your knowledge and experience
- Great attention to detail
- Can do / Make it happen attitude
What we are looking for:
- 3+ years experience delivering digital projects including websites
- A compulsive list maker, organiser and executer
- Previous experience working in a digital agency is a bonus
- The ability to grasp concepts quickly
- Someone who loves technical challenges
Location: Shoreditch, London. Office based (When the office reopens!)
Type: Permanent
Perks & Benefits:
- Paid Annual Leave
- Birthday Off
- Volunteering Time-off
- Wellness Day
- Cycle-to-Work Scheme
