What It’s Like to Be a Project Manager at MAD Colour

The Project Manager role is about being close to the work and close to the people.

Working alongside the Project Delivery Lead, you’ll be involved in every stage of a project’s journey — from early planning through to build, install and completion.

You’ll see ideas move from screen to shop floor to site — and play a key role in making sure nothing is missed along the way.

This role is fast‑paced and hands‑on, but also hugely rewarding. You’ll be part of a project delivery team that celebrates doing things well — where planning matters, teamwork matters, and pride in the final result is shared by everyone involved.

As you grow in confidence and experience, you’ll be supported to take on more responsibility, develop your judgement, and build a career in project delivery within a creative, ambitious business.

If you enjoy organisation, collaboration and being part of something bigger than any one task, this role offers learning, progression and the satisfaction of helping great work happen.
