Job Description
Senior Project Manager
Part of the IPG Health network, McCann Health London is one of the most awarded healthcare communications agencies. We are guided by our founding philosophy, Truth Well Told, and united by one vision: to help our clients’ brands and businesses play a meaningful role in people’s health. We combine science, creativity and strategy to deliver best-in-class services to some of the world’s top, as well as emerging, health and wellness brands. We do this by challenging convention and bringing to life smart, creative ideas that push boundaries and leave the world a healthier place than we found it.
Are you a seasoned Project Manager with a passion for healthcare communications? We’re looking for someone just like you to join our team at McCann Health London.
You’ll be the driving force behind the end-to-end delivery of multi-channel campaigns for global pharmaceutical brands—think websites, HCP engagement tools, social, apps, congress materials and more. You’ll manage timelines, budgets and resources with precision, while building strong relationships with clients and cross-functional teams.
This role is perfect for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, regulated environment, can juggle multiple complex projects, and loves bringing clarity to chaos.
What you’ll be doing:
* Leading mid-to-large scale digital & integrated projects (£500k+)
* Running timelines, scopes, and budgets from kick-off to delivery
* Acting as the main client contact on project delivery
* Mentoring junior PMs and supporting best practice across the agency
* Championing quality, process, and operational excellence
What you’ll bring:
* Strong PM experience (agency-side preferred)
* Pharma/healthcare campaign experience (ABPI knowledge essential)
* Strong communication, leadership, and stakeholder management skills
* Proficiency in tools like Jira, Smartsheet, or similar
