Project Manager
FINN Partners is looking for an organised, results-driven Project Manager to join our growing team. The Project Manager will lead the execution of cross-functional, complex projects. You’ll create detailed project plans and ensure they are delivered on time, on budget, and up to high standards. As a key player, you’ll manage client expectations, gather feedback, and collaborate closely with the Account team to ensure the success of each project.
Who are we looking for:
- Dependable and Organised: You’re someone who people describe as reliable and always on top of the details. You have a talent for crafting clear, actionable project plans that keep everything on track.
- Confident and Assertive: You’re comfortable making decisions and addressing issues proactively, knowing when to pivot to keep projects moving forward. Your confidence builds trust with both clients and internal teams.
- An Excellent Listener: You actively listen to both clients and colleagues, making sure everyone’s voice is heard and feedback is acted upon. Your strong communication skills foster positive relationships and keep teams engaged.
- Team-Oriented and Collaborative: You’re skilled at maintaining healthy teamwork and balance within the group, ensuring everyone stays on task and works together without burnout.
- Flexible and Adaptive: Not in a yoga way—you’re open to learning new approaches and adjusting your plans when the unexpected happens.
- Fun and Personable: You like working with people and easily forge strong relationships, bringing a positive energy that makes collaboration enjoyable.
- Detail-Oriented Problem Solver: You can juggle multiple priorities, spot potential risks, and find creative solutions to ensure projects are delivered without a hitch.
What you’ll be part of:
- A fast-growing agency with exciting clients and a steady pipeline of projects.
- A talented team of professionals eager to collaborate and support each other.
- Leadership that genuinely cares about your professional development and success.
- A culture that values teamwork, accountability, and process improvement.
- An agency that’s committed to maintaining a healthy work-life balance.
Where will you work?
You’ll be based in London and collaborate with global colleagues and clients in the U.S. and beyond. While there’s no set in-office requirement, we encourage regular in-person collaboration when it works with your schedule, especially for team leadership, training, and support. This hybrid role provides the flexibility to manage your time while recognising that in-person interaction plays an important role in leading and nurturing the team.
Responsibilities:
- Develop comprehensive project plans that consider unique requirements and dependencies, ensuring seamless execution across all phases.
- Manage concurrent work streams and balance dependencies across multiple projects and disciplines, maintaining clarity and focus on key deliverables.
- Navigate business needs with a clear understanding of competing priorities, aligning resources to meet both client and internal expectations.
- Proactively manage project financials and oversee monthly billing reconciliations, presenting actionable recommendations to the account services partner and/or client.
- Identify, analyse, and respond to potential project and account risks, taking the initiative to proactively mitigate issues before they impact project outcomes.
- Demonstrate initiative in moving projects forward, ensuring progress aligns with the desired outcome while maintaining accountability at each stage.
- Coordinate approvals and finalisation processes for timely, error-free work, ensuring high-quality deliverables that meet or exceed client expectations.
- Champion FINN goals, systems, and policies, fostering adherence to best practices and reinforcing a culture of excellence within the team.
Qualifications:
- Prior experience as a project manager in an agency setting or comparable is helpful.
- 4-6 years of experience in project management.
- Degree or equivalent experience required.
Why join FINN Partners?
- Competitive salary and benefits package.
- A company that prioritises work-life balance (we value logging off at a reasonable hour).
- Career advancement opportunities in a fast-growing company.
- A supportive, collaborative culture that values innovation and continuous learning.
- A wellness subsidy because your health and well-being are important to us.
