Descrizione del lavoro

ARAD is a strategic consulting company operating in digital transformation. We are part of the Gellify Group ecosystem, a leading innovation platform that connects startups, corporates, and investors to drive technology‑led growth. The sectors in which we operate primarily are retail, grocery, food & beverage, and fashion.

We are a boutique firm with a clear vision: consulting that is rigorous, human, and forward‑looking. Today, that means embracing artificial intelligence not as a trend, but as a fundamental shift in how businesses operate and compete.

We are looking for inspired talents, digital enthusiasts who want to grow professionally in a fast and stimulating environment, taking advantage of the opportunity to be directly involved right away on various and complex projects — from strategic to organisational consultancy, from optimisation of e‑commerce performance to product management, from the set‑up of digital channels to business development, and increasingly into AI‑driven solutions and agentic commerce.

Job role:

We are seeking Project Managers at various seniority levels to join our Bologna team. Whether you are taking your first step into project management or are an experienced professional looking for a new challenge, we are interested in meeting you. This role is central to our operations: you will lead complex, multi‑stakeholder engagements and ensure that our projects are delivered with excellence — on time, on budget, and beyond expectations.

Responsibilities:

• Lead projects end‑to‑end, from initial scoping through to final delivery, ensuring quality, timelines, and client satisfaction.
• Coordinate cross‑functional teams and manage relationships with senior client stakeholders.
• Integrate AI‑powered tools and workflows into project execution to enhance efficiency and depth of analysis.
• Collaborate with technology partners to bring innovative solutions to our clients.
• Monitor project economics, including budgets, margins, and resource allocation.
• Contribute to the continuous improvement of our project management frameworks.
• Support business development efforts, including proposal preparation and client expansion initiatives.

Requirements:

• At least 2+ years of experience in consulting, digital agencies, or complex project environments.
• Proven ability to manage multiple workstreams and stakeholders with clarity and composure.
• Genuine interest in technology and artificial intelligence and their application in business contexts.
• Comfortable working with technical teams and translating between business needs and tech solutions.
• Strong commercial awareness — you understand that excellent delivery must also be sustainable.
• Exceptional communication skills in both Italian and English.
• Based in Bologna or willing to relocate, with flexibility for hybrid working.

Valued Experience:

• Background in retail, e‑commerce, or omnichannel projects.
• Professional certifications (Agile, PMP, Scrum, Design Thinking).
• Hands‑on exposure to AI tools, digital platforms, or technology implementation projects.
• International experience — whether through study, work, or cross‑border collaboration.
