The Role
We’re a small but ambitious creative team inside EmergentX: currently a Creative Director and Designer. We’re now looking for a Project Manager who can lead from day one - bringing structure, clarity and momentum by implementing process and operational excellence across both EmergentX itself and our portfolio of investment companies. Our work has already been recognised on the global stage – including a D&AD Pencil for Visual Identity (2024) – and we’re hungry to make more award-winning creative that cuts through in emerging technology sectors. You’ll be central to helping us achieve that.
With a strong collaborative approach, you bring out the best in cross-functional project teams, inspiring those around you and consistently driving toward the best outcome for the project.
What You’ll Do
- Champion process and structure: refine and roll out our Creative Framework, establish clear workflows (campaign / deliverable / task tiers).
- Project visibility: map and track every active project across EX and our investments, giving the team and leadership a clear live view of stages, milestones and blockers.
- Tools & systems: Set up and manage the right stack (e.g. Teams, Notion, Streamtime, Figma, Miro).
- Resource & spend management: track time, capacity and budget against projects; highlight gaps and recommend solutions.
- Hands-on leadership: run daily stand-ups, weekly WIPs and monthly reports to keep everything on track and transparent.
- Network building: Build strong relationships with teams and partners of all levels, instilling trust and confidence. Developing a bench of trusted partners (writers, strategists, designers, motion studios) who can flex in when needed.
- Ecosystem support: work across both EmergentX projects and portfolio companies, helping them go to market and scale with strong creative execution, hiring their own Project Managers as they scale.
- Financial awareness: Accountable for project commercials, including accurately active tracking and monitoring for the project’s commercial health, planning resource, managing invoicing and third party supplier costs.
What We’re Looking For
- 5–7+ years’ project management experience in a creative environment (agency, studio, or in-house).
