Job Description
Digital Project Manager
London, Hybrid (1 – 2 days a 2 week)
£45,000–£55,000
I’m working with a fast-growing, premium subscription platform in creative education. They make in-depth online courses with some of the most respected names in their fields, teaching exactly how they work.
The business already has multi-million-pound annual recurring revenue, an international audience (mostly in the US), very loyal subscribers and a product its audience loves. The plan now is to double revenue, and they need a Digital Project Manager to keep the product team shipping as they grow.
The role
This is a junior-to-mid level role focused on delivery. You’ll plan the work, keep it moving, and make sure what the engineers and designer build ships on time, to scope and without surprises.
You’ll work day to day with the CTO, a small engineering team and a UX designer, taking priorities from the Head of Growth and leadership. You decide how and when things get delivered. Product vision sits with others.
What you’ll do
- Break approved work into clear, tightly scoped tickets with acceptance criteria and edge cases
- Estimate and sequence work with the CTO, realistically for a small team’s capacity
- Own one prioritised backlog in Linear or Jira, instead of competing requests from different teams
- Run sprint planning, daily check-ins and retrospectives
- Be the team’s first point of contact for blockers and dependencies
- Keep growth, content and support teams informed on progress, timelines and trade-offs
- Act as first-line QA and coordinate user acceptance testing and beta tests
- Manage releases and handovers, and use product analytics to track how features perform after launch
What they’re looking for
- 2–4 years in a project, delivery or producer role in digital, ideally in a startup or small product team
- A track record of running sprints and keeping small engineering teams on schedule
- Clear, strong writing: tickets, status updates and handover notes
- Technical empathy: you don’t need to code, but you understand how scope and architecture affect timelines
- Organised and calm, and comfortable when priorities change
- Linear or Jira and Agile/Scrum experience is a plus, as is an interest in design, craft or creative education
Package
- £45,000–£55,000 depending on experience
- Flexible hybrid working in London
- 25 days holiday plus bank holidays
- Pension
- Free access to the full course library
- A small, high-trust team where your decisions visibly shape the product
Skills
- linear
- JIRA
