Job description

Project Manager – Large Format / Retail Displays

Huddersfield, West Yorkshire

Salary: £35,000 – £40,000 plus benefits.

We're partnered with a well‑established creative manufacturing business that works with major retail brands to design, produce and deliver eye‑catching window and in‑store display solutions.

The business prides itself as a creative production house that can deliver complex, one‑off projects to a highly diverse client base.

Due to continued growth, they're looking to appoint a Project Manager to support the Projects Director. This role would suit a Project Coordinator / Junior Project Manager ready to take the next step, or a Production Supervisor / Manager from a similar business looking to move into a more client‑facing, commercially focused direction.

Within the role you'll act as the key link between clients, production teams, and suppliers—overseeing the lifecycle from initial brief through to installation and ensuring every project lands on time, on budget and to the expected standard. This is an office‑based role with travel to client sites when required.

Role Responsibilities

• Evaluate and review client briefs to understand requirements and scope
• Develop project options, quotations, and realistic timelines
• Build and maintain strong working relationships with suppliers and contractors
• Produce accurate and profitable quotations
• Plan production schedules and coordinate workloads to meet key deadlines
• Oversee prototype builds and production, ensuring quality standards are met
• Conduct quality checks before dispatch
• Organise surveys, installation schedules and supporting documentation
• Prepare detailed installation packs and coordinate logistics with clients and fitters

Key Skills & Attributes

• An understanding of the manufacturing and production processes associated with creative retail display projects
• Strong organisational and decision‑making skills
• Confident communicator who can manage multiple projects simultaneously
• Detail‑driven, proactive, and calm under pressure
• Full UK driving licence and access to transport (essential for site visits)
• Excellent customer service approach and relationship‑building capability
• Ability to work to tight deadlines and adapt quickly
• Fully computer literate

Benefits

£35,000 – £40,000 salary plus benefits including casual dress, on‑site parking, sick pay, company pension and more.

If you're ambitious, eager to progress, and excited by the idea of delivering high‑profile creative retail display projects, we'd love to hear from you.
