Role: Interim Project Manager (6 month FTC)

Location: London, United Kingdom

About The Role

This is an opportunity to join OLIVER's dedicated in-house studio embedded with a globally recognised B2B organisation as an Interim Project Manager, leading creative and digital projects from brief to completion within a Digital Centre of Excellence.

The studio sits at the heart of the client's marketing department — with an ambitious mandate to put the Saudi events industry on the global map. Based in London on a hybrid working pattern, you'll own the full project lifecycle across digital content, social campaigns, and events marketing: managing timelines, resources, and budgets, and keeping a high-volume, multi-discipline programme moving with clarity and momentum. Your ability to bring structure to complexity will keep projects on track and creative output at its best.

As Project Manager, you'll report to the Senior Project Manager and work as part of a 10-person Digital Centre of Excellence team, embedded within a wider group of 29 across OLIVER and the client organisation. You'll take full ownership of project plans — triaging incoming briefs, managing team capacity, facilitating review and approval processes, and ensuring every deliverable lands on time and to budget. You'll work alongside the client's other external agencies and partners, acting as a trusted bridge between agency rigour and client-side ways of working.

Responsibilities

  • Lead projects from initiation to completion
  • Triage and prioritise incoming briefs
  • Act as the primary point of contact for project status, risks, and challenges
  • Coordinate between Marketing Managers and the Digital Centre of Excellence
  • Facilitate project meetings across all stages
  • Manage project-level budgets
  • Build productive working relationships with team members and stakeholders
  • Champion internal project management processes
  • Assess project resource requirements

About You

What You Need To Be Great In This Role:

  • Solid experience as a Project Manager in a creative agency or in-house creative environment
  • A clear understanding of digital disciplines
  • Confident stakeholder management skills
  • Clear, audience-appropriate communication
  • Experience in B2B environments; experience in events marketing is a strong advantage
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office; familiarity with Airtable or similar project management platforms is beneficial
  • Experience with Agile methodologies is an advantage
  • Proficiency with Gen AI tools to enhance project management output

Eligibility

Formal qualifications are welcome but not required. Equivalent experience counts — gained through work, study, volunteering, or self-directed learning.
