Job description

Company Description At NProject, we believe successful transformation starts with people, knowledge and the courage to do things differently.

We are an independent UK-based IT consultancy and professional training company, bringing nearly 20 years of industry experience to help organisations navigate change, deliver better projects and build capabilities for the future.

Our expertise covers project and programme management, IT consultancy, business analysis and process improvement. We combine practical experience with fresh thinking, emerging technologies and responsible innovation. Whether Agile, Waterfall or Hybrid, we focus on understanding challenges and finding solutions that create lasting value.

Learning and sustainability are equally important to us.

As an Authorised Training Partner of both the Project Management Institute (PMI®) and Green Project Management (GPM®), we deliver professional training across their authorised programmes, helping individuals and organisations turn knowledge into practical skills and real‑world results.

Our commitment goes beyond consultancy and certifications.

We believe financial circumstances shouldn't stand in the way of someone's potential. Through our Free Training Initiative, we're piloting one fully funded training place each month for someone facing financial barriers, with the ambition to expand as we grow.

We also believe in creating opportunities together. Our Affiliate Programme offers approved partners the opportunity to promote eligible PMP® training and earn commission, while our separate Refer & Earn Programme rewards existing learners for sharing their training experiences and introducing new learners to NProject.

For us, success isn't simply about delivering a project or earning a certification. It's about bringing together our knowledge, abilities and experiences, being brave enough to try new approaches, and turning what we learn into better results in real life.

Inspire. Empower. Impact.
