Job description

Role Overview:

At CSA, no two projects look the same. One quarter you might be rolling out a new process or platform, and the next you might be running a procurement / tender project, onboarding a logistics partner, or launching an internal initiative from scratch. We’re looking for an experienced, versatile Project Manager who can take the team to define goals & scope and turn it into something delivered.

You’ll work across the whole business: operations, commercial, finance, procurement, legal and technology, as well as with customers and partners. Some projects come with a clear brief; others need you to help shape the scope with stakeholders before getting into delivery.

What you’ll do

• Manage a variety of internal and external projects end to end, from scoping and planning through delivery and handover
• Own plans, timelines, budgets, risks and resources, and adjust them when priorities shift, which they will
• Act as the central point of contact for internal teams, customers, suppliers and logistics partners
• Bring structure to ambiguous situations: define the problem, align stakeholders and set a clear path forward
• Drive implementation of processes, systems and SOPs so that what we build actually sticks
• Keep stakeholders at every level informed with clear, honest communication, especially when things get difficult
• Spot improvement opportunities across the business and act on them without waiting to be asked

What you bring

• 3-5+ years of project management experience, with a strong track record of delivering in a hands-on, operational environment
• Freight forwarding, logistics or supply chain experience is essential. Good understanding in RFI/RFQ, procurement, contract management, and logistics operations. 4PL or digital freight environment would be a plus.
• Experience running a mix of project types, such as operational, procurement, commercial, customer-facing and system implementations
• Confidence working independently, setting your own priorities and taking decisions
• Excellent communication skills, written and verbal, with the ability to adapt your message for different stakeholders
• Fluent English, other languages are a plus

Who you are

• Resilient: You stay steady under pressure, handle setbacks calmly and keep projects moving.
• Adaptive: You’re comfortable switching between projects, contexts and audiences, and you treat change as part of the job.
• A strong communicator: People trust you because you’re clear, direct and keep them in the loop.
• Delivery-driven: You care about outcomes rather than activity, and you take ownership until the job is done.
• Self-starting: You’re curious and resourceful. You pick things up quickly, ask questions when you need to, and use the guidance and support around you to drive projects forward.

Nice to have

• PMP, PRINCE2 or a similar certification
• Experience with RFI/RFQ processes, procurement or contract management
• Exposure to logistics technology, SaaS platforms or digital transformation projects

What we offer

• Variety and impact: a broad, visible role across the whole organization, with projects that shape how the business runs and grows
• Autonomy and trust: real ownership of your work and a direct line to leadership
• Growth: room to expand your scope as you prove yourself, with exposure to both traditional and digital sides of the logistics industry
• An international environment: working with colleagues, customers and partners around the world
