Job description

Creative Project Manager - contract (6-9 months)

Our client is a vibrant Cheltenham-based creative agency specialising in brand and packaging design. They are on the lookout for an exceptional Creative Project Manager to join their close-knit team. This is a brilliant opportunity for someone who thrives in a creative environment and is ready to take ownership of project flow, team coordination, and client relationships. The role comes with a salary of up to £35k, and core hours in office 5 days per week. We could also look at a 4-day week, should that be required. We are initially looking at a 6-9 month contract, with possibility of perm thereafter.

As the beating heart of the studio, you'll be responsible for managing the day-to-day operations of the in-house creative team, ensuring smooth delivery of FMCG brand projects from concept to completion. Everything from new brand projects to refreshes. You'll work closely with the Managing Director, act as the key liaison between clients and creatives, and keep everything running like clockwork, and ensure nothing leaves the studio unchecked.

We're looking for someone who:

• Has dedicated experience in a creative agency or design studio environment
• Is highly organised, process-driven, and composed
• Has a sharp eye for detail and a passion for high-quality output
• Can confidently manage timelines, resources, and budgets
• Is a natural communicator, equally comfortable briefing Designers or interacting with clients
• Brings energy, positivity, and a proactive, can-do mindset

In return, you'll become part of a talented, friendly team who are genuinely passionate about great design. From local heroes to global household names, you'll help bring some fantastic brands to life.

If you're looking for a dynamic role where no two days are the same, and where your contribution really makes a difference, we'd love to hear from you.
