Nantwich, United Kingdom Eleven Full time

We're looking for a seasoned Project & Studio Manager to join our close-knit Client Services team.


Please note: You will need to be in a commutable distance of our studio in Cheshire.


About the role


In this newly created role, you’ll be responsible for managing projects from start to finish, ensuring client expectations are exceeded and deadlines are met. This will involve detailed project planning, regular client liaison, co-ordination of internal teams and external partners, and the flexibility to juggle multiple projects with different deadlines.


Projects will range from complex, strategy-led multi-channel marketing campaigns to the development of individual marketing assets, such as animations, websites, films and social media content.


You'll also oversee the smooth running of our studio – directing our schedule and managing our relationships with key delivery partners.


This role will suit a detail-orientated person, who is analytical and digitally savvy – with good people and communication skills.


Working alongside our Account Directors and Account Managers, this role will report to the Head of Client Services.

We work with clients such as Oxfam, Living Wage Foundation, The King’s Trust and University of Suffolk.
