Project Manager

You're articulate and personable, able to explain complex ideas clearly to both technical teams and non-technical stakeholders. You speak up in meetings, share your opinions constructively, and build genuine relationships with clients and colleagues. You're the kind of person people turn to when they need clarity, because you have the confidence and gravitas to guide conversations and decisions.

When faced with a complex challenge, you don't wait for someone else to fix it. You grasp the full scope of the problem, think strategically about solutions, and take ownership. You connect the dots between competing priorities, technical constraints, and client needs, then lead your team through to resolution.

You guide and inspire the people around you. Whether it's a junior developer, a seasoned designer, or a nervous client stakeholder, you bring out the best in people by being supportive, clear, and decisive. You create an environment where teams can do brilliant work.
 

You're the person who knows what's happening across multiple projects at any given moment. You plan ahead, keep things up to date, and pay attention to the details that matter. Your thoroughness means nothing falls through the cracks.

Complex digital projects inevitably have challenging moments. You stay calm, confront difficult situations head-on, and work through them methodically. You don't panic, you don't give up, and you help your team stay steady when things get tough.

You're fascinated by the work we do and curious about how we do it.

You want to understand the technical side, appreciate good design, and care about the impact our work has on the world. Your engagement deepens your understanding and makes you better at your job.

You must be able to show the following:

2+ years' experience in project management.

Proven track record of successfully delivering large-scale digital projects.

Experience managing multidisciplinary teams including designers, developers, and QA testers.

Excellent written and verbal communication skills with evidence of managing client relationships.

Strong grasp of project planning, scope management, budget tracking, and risk management.

Working knowledge of agile (Scrum) and waterfall methodologies.

Experience managing the full project lifecycle from initiation through to ongoing support.

Ability to write clear project documentation (specifications, statements of work, plans). 
 

You don't need to have all these skills, but we're looking for someone with some or most of them: 

Understanding of modern web technologies, CMS platforms (particularly Drupal), UX design, and web standards.

Experience with Jira, Confluence, and resource management tools like Float.

Professional certification in project management, Agile, Scrum, or PRINCE2.

Experience working with mission-driven organisations (charities, museums, universities, public sector).
 

These skills aren't essential, but they will help you stand out.

Experience implementing process improvements or automation.

Track record of mentoring or coaching junior project managers.

Knowledge of accessibility standards (WCAG 2.2) and public sector procurement.

An eye for digital design and appreciation of the creative process.

Experience with capacity planning and resource forecasting.

 

We act with trustworthiness, understanding and empathy with each other and our clients.

We like simple, elegant solutions to problems. Our processes make it easy to get work done and easy for our clients to work with us.

We show our clients the way, providing clear, concise and confident explanations and advice.

We take responsibility for our work, both individually and as a company.

Having fun is an essential part of working at Numiko. We develop great relationships with our clients and each other.

We offer a highly competitive salary with great opportunities for progression.

A generous holiday entitlement, including your birthday off!

We like a healthy work/life balance so ask people to be in the office at least 2 days a week.

Your own yearly budget for personal development or just for nice things to improve your working life.

We offer an annual bonus based on your performance and that of the company. 

We're proud that people choose to stay and grow their careers with us. You'll work alongside talented, passionate people who care about doing great work for organisations that matter.

We offer free gym memberships through Wellhub, tax-free bike purchases via the Cycle to Work Scheme, and electric car leasing via the Electric Car Scheme. 

Your work will directly contribute to helping charities reach more people, museums engage bigger audiences, and universities transform their digital presence. Every project makes a difference.
