Job description

PRJCT WRKS is looking for an Experienced Project Manager to join our office in Amsterdam, The Netherlands.

We are a unique, client centric project management firm based in Amsterdam, realizing high-quality interiors for leading brands and companies worldwide. We work across retail, food & beverage, leisure and office environments, from stand‑alone locations to international roll‑outs (and everything in between).

Being client centric means we sit on our client’s side of the table. We protect their interests, challenge when needed, and take full ownership throughout the entire process.

Our number one aim is unburdening our clients, while we handle the complexity. We work for brands such as Calvin Klein, Ace & Tate, Asics, Karl Lagerfeld, Rocycle, Le Smash and many more.

• Conscious – we stay aware of what is going on.
• Honest and direct – we are a gutsy bunch.
• Committed – we go the extra mile
• We are looking for an Experienced Project Manager with 4–6 years of relevant experience who feels comfortable taking ownership of projects from A to Z.
• You report to our Head of Projects and work closely with a team of Project Managers & Architectural Drafters. You lead by example and bring confidence, structure and calmness to the mix.
• As an Experienced Project Manager at PRJCT WRKS, you don’t just execute, you think ahead.
• You understand the dynamics between brand, design, budget and reality.
• You know when to push and when to adapt.
• You are a sparring partner within the team and a steady presence in complex situations.

What you will be doing

• Lead retail & leisure interior projects from concept to completion
• Act as the client’s representative throughout the entire process
• Manage clients, contractors, consultants and suppliers directly
• Guard scope, time, quality and cost
• Identify risks before they become problems
• Keep projects structured, realistic and on track
• Travel when projects require it (up to 20% at peak times)

About you

• 4–6 years of relevant project management experience (Retail / hospitality / construction is a strong plus)
• You have experienced projects under pressure, and know how to handle it
• You are structured but pragmatic
• You communicate clearly and directly
• You take ownership instead of waiting for instructions
• You are comfortable working independently
• A relevant educational background (construction, interior, architecture, real estate or project management) is a bonus, not a must
• Knowledge of Dutch regulations and permits is an advantage
• Fluent in English. Dutch is a strong plus. Other languages are always welcome!

Who thrives here

• You’ll probably thrive at PRJCT WRKS if:
• You prefer responsibility over hierarchy
• You stay calm when things get messy
• You speak up when something isn’t right
• You enjoy working in a small, high-responsibility team
• You value freedom and understand it comes with accountability
• If you need fixed playbooks, constant instructions and multiple approval layers, this might not be your place.

What you want from us

• Beautiful projects for exciting brands – some new, some established.
• Great office location in Amsterdam. 10 minutes by bike from Central Station.
• A market conform salary plus 24 days holiday allowance, not including public holidays.
• Quarterly training sessions and group events
• Laptop, phone and all IT requirements provided.
• Fresh daily lunch at the office.
• Music. Drinks. Strong colleagues.
• A steep learning curve.
