Job Description

Never mix business with pleasure.


Right? That’s definitely not the case here. Quite the opposite, in fact.


We are looking for a project manager, to join our client who work with some of the most prestigious names within the automotive industry. They work on a wide variety of events from between £10,000 up to £million pound projects – all of which are delivered to impeccably high standards.


You will work across key accounts, with one of the most prestigious brands in the automotive sector. But this won’t be something that overly phases you, as you have worked agency side with luxury brands for years now and thrive on meeting their expectations, every time.


The projects you will work on will take you across Europe, to some of the most beautiful locations you can imagine. You will be the person that makes everything come together. You are not joining a huge team with endless people to delegate to, you’re joining a close knit team who all roll their sleeves up and work together.


There are great opportunities to progress within the company, as they continue to grow, so this role will suit someone who wants to absorb industry knowledge from the senior team, who are some of the leading people in their industry.


In an ideal world you will already have a couple of years of experience in the automotive sector within an agency - but this client values attitude above all else, so if you're extremely keen to come in and work with a genuine leader in their field.


This is a global company with the European head office in Banbury, just off the M40, you will spend a mixture of time here and at home, but there is a very sensible approach to hybrid working –but you can expect to be in the office 3 days a week minimum.


You’ll start on around £35,000 - 0,000 depending on your experience. 25 days holiday + 8 bank holidays and healthcare, too. There will be plenty of opportunity to travel


If you are interested or want to know more, call me, send me a message, DM or e-mail - whatever is easiest. We encourage anyone who feels they are suitable to apply, we love seeing diversity in our applicants. We use specialist technology to ensure there is no gender bias in our adverts.


Every applicant will receive a response. We sometimes make mistakes and miss things from CVs, so you will be given an opportunity to receive feedback and discuss the role in more detail if you feel necessary.
