  • Monitor progress, budget, and resources to keep projects on scope and within budget.
  • Prepare status reports for stakeholders and manage weekly action points.
  • Follow change‑control processes for scope, budget, timelines, or resource changes.
  • Maintain up‑to‑date project documentation and system compliance.
  • Proactively problem‑solve, mitigate risks, and plan for future issues.
  • Account for financial profitability, managing cost overburn and time logged daily.
  • Ensure final deliverables are quality‑driven and meet design and production requirements.
  • Monitor team utilization and output.
  • What You Need To Be Great In This Role

  • Willingness to accept feedback and iterate over processes in a collaborative, low‑ego team environment.
  • Process‑driven and continuous‑improvement mindset.
  • Curiosity, creativity, and ambition.
  • Attention to detail.
  • Strong communication, organizational, and time‑management skills.
  • Impeccable problem‑solving skills and a love for client satisfaction.
  • 3+ years of experience and proven track record of managing projects from start to end.
  • Strong organisational skills – able to multi‑task across different deadlines.
  • Good eye for detail and quality control experience.
  • Software competency – Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, Excel, Zoom, Teams, and OMG (Oliver Marketing Gateway internal approval system – training will be provided).
