• Financial Oversight: Manage project finances, including budgeting, billing, and profitability.
• Workstream Coordination: Ensure efficient resource allocation and project schedules.
• Auditing & Compliance: Conduct task audits and ensure all documentation is compliant with client expectations.

What We’re Looking For

• Significant experience in project/programme management, ideally in quantitative research.
• Proven success in handling complex projects and managing highly engaged clients.
• Strong client communication skills with the ability to manage multiple workstreams under tight deadlines.
• Experience with financial management and project automation tools.
• A proactive mindset with a focus on process improvement.

Contract Details

• Initial 6-month contract, with the possibility of extension or a permanent role.
• Immediate start.

• 5% employer pension contribution.
• Life assurance and income protection.
• Flexible working hours, with early finishes on Fridays.
