Project Manager
Digital Transformation Consultancy - Glasgow (Hybrid – 3 days in-office)
We’re working with a growing digital transformation consultancy that partners with clients to deliver complex technology, web and platform transformation programmes. Following the recent appointment of a new Head of Project Management, the team is strengthening its senior delivery capability to support both existing retained clients and new project work.
This is a hands-on senior delivery role suited to someone who thrives in an agency or consultancy environment, comfortable juggling multiple workstreams, managing client service desks, and leading delivery across fast-paced digital programmes.
What You’ll Be Doing
Focused on delivery, you’ll sit within a close-knit delivery team of 7–8 delivery, senior delivery and project managers, reporting directly into the Head of PM.
You’ll be responsible for:
* Owning the end-to-end delivery of multiple retained clients and small-to-medium projects
* Maintaining and evolving client service desks, supporting both existing clients and onboarding new work
* Acting as a senior client-facing lead, balancing strong service delivery with technical credibility
* Managing budgets, timelines, scope and quality, ensuring commercial and delivery outcomes align
* Choosing and applying the right delivery approach (Agile, Waterfall or hybrid) per project
* Leading Agile ceremonies where appropriate (stand-ups, sprint planning, reviews)
* Working closely with multidisciplinary teams across design, engineering and product
* Ensuring delivery tooling such as Jira and Confluence is used effectively and consistently
* Monitoring risk, issues, capacity and forecasting, escalating pragmatically when required
* Translating complex technical concepts for non-technical stakeholders with clarity and confidence
Project Landscape
This role sits firmly in technology-led delivery, including:
* Web and platform builds
* Digital transformation programmes
* Product, UX and engineering-led initiatives
Note: Candidates coming purely from full-spectrum digital marketing delivery (e.g. SEO, PPC, campaign-only work) are unlikely to be a fit.
About You
You’ll succeed in this role if you:
* Come from a digital agency or consultancy background (this is essential)
* Have proven experience managing multiple clients and delivery workstreams simultaneously
* Are confident operating at the intersection of client service, delivery management and technology
* Understand delivery in both Agile and Waterfall environments
* Are commercially aware and comfortable managing budgets and forecasting
* Communicate effortlessly with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
* Are structured, calm under pressure, and credible with senior clients
Essential experience:
* Senior Delivery / Delivery Manager experience in an agency or consultancy
* Jira (essential)
* Agile & Waterfall delivery methodologies
Working Model & Benefits
* Hybrid working: 3 days per week in the Glasgow office
* Core hours: 10:00–16:00, with flexible working outside of this
* Competitive salary (£35,000 - £45,000)
* A supportive, delivery-focused leadership team with genuine flexibility
Why Join?
* Join at a point of positive change and renewed direction under a new Head of PM
* High trust, high impact role with real ownership
* Work on meaningful digital transformation projects, not campaign churn
