Project Manager

Senior/Project Manager – McCann London

Hybrid Role (3 days in Bishopsgate Office)

About McCann London

We are 150 people dedicated to telling the truth and telling it well, because we believe when a truth is told well things change for the better. Fuelled by an obsession with truth and the richness of a connected network, our work lives on the edge of mainstream culture, building enduring brands, growing businesses and giving our people a platform to grow.

We've delivered joy with a little help from Snoop Dog, Katy Perry and Xtina and Latto for 'Did Somebody Say Just Eat', helped L'Oréal show people 'They're Worth It', given everyone the right to access great quality food most notably with Kevin the Carrot for Aldi, and put a 'Priceless' tag on Mastercard, to name a few.

About the Role

We're looking for an exceptional Senior Project Manager or Project Manager ready to step up to join our fast-paced team delivering bold, integrated 360 brand campaigns. This is a fantastic opportunity to work across multiple sectors including Beauty, Travel, and Food \& Drink, managing the delivery of integrated campaign assets spanning everything from TVC production to social media, working on both global and local projects.

You'll be the central hub between creative, strategy, production and client teams, ensuring seamless collaboration and the successful delivery of complex, multi-channel integrated campaigns from conception through execution. This role offers the perfect blend of strategic thinking and hands-on delivery excellence.

Key Responsibilities

• Oversee the day-to-day management of integrated 360 campaign delivery across all channels – ATL, digital, social, broadcast and experiential, managing timelines, budgets and resource allocation to ensure on-time and on-budget delivery
• Act as the central hub between creative, strategy, production and client teams; liaise with clients to manage expectations, provide updates and ensure project objectives are met
• Lead and support on all incoming briefs, working with strategy and business leads to ensure all delivery requirements are clearly understood and resourced appropriately
• Work in partnership with Creative Directors to understand creative ambition and requirements, ensuring production excellence whilst maintaining brand consistency
• Create and manage scope of work across the full portfolio, forward-plan to anticipate problems, map out resourcing against projects, and coordinate multiple production processes simultaneously
• Run daily/weekly scrum meetings to ensure timely task completion and coordinate direct working relationships with internal and external stakeholders, including specialist production partners
• Drive efficiency and identify opportunities for optimisation, manage financial health of projects, and conduct project reviews to inform better ways of working
• Take a helicopter view of accounts, proactively identifying opportunities for growth and pushing campaigns in bigger, bolder ways

About You

• You have a strong track record as a Senior Project Manager (or similar delivery-focused role) in a creative agency environment, with demonstrated experience managing integrated, multi-channel 360 campaigns across ATL channels
• You're comfortable juggling multiple workstreams, budgets and competing priorities with meticulous attention to detail and outstanding organisational skills
• You're client-facing, confident presenting and communicating with all levels – from client contacts to internal teams across disciplines. You can confidently say no with kindness and negotiate both internally and externally
• You possess strong strategic thinking combined with pragmatic delivery focus; you're curious, perceptive and always looking for ways to flex briefs and find growth opportunities
• You have a genuine passion for creativity and culture, with the ability to partner effectively with creative teams and drive creative bravery alongside commercial health
• You revel in the data side of project management – financial tracking, resource planning, and recoverability – and aren't afraid to challenge processes to drive optimisation
• You're a natural communicator, supportive of everyone around you, and hungry for the growth, success and productivity of your accounts. You want to be involved and present at account, departmental and business level
• Honesty and integrity are key to you. You're not afraid to stand up when you believe in something and you thrive under pressure in fast-paced, collaborative environments
