R&D Project Manager

Project managements easy, right?

All you do is manage a few spreadsheets and ensure everyone turns up when and where they are supposed to.

See, easy.

If only that were the case.

So, you’re a R&D Project Manager. In this role, you’ll be doing what all top-notch R&D Project Managers do well. You’ll be delivering technical design projects, on time and within budget. You’ll be operating with a lot of independence (no breathing down your neck) and it will be your job to keep customers and internal engineering design teams in check. Sure, sometimes it will feel like herding cats – but you didn’t get your cat herding badge for nothing…

Well, ok. Maybe it’s not called a ‘cat herding badge’. Maybe it’s called a Prince II qualification. But I digress…

You’ll be speaking with clients on a daily basis and you’ll be managing multiple R&D projects at once – so the skill of metaphorical juggling is key here. It’s also pretty important that you come from a technical background in a company designing high tech, precision products because you’ll need to know what the projects all about – and be able to translate that to clients in terms they’ll understand. This one will suit you down to a ‘T’ if this is your second or maybe third PM role.

But seeing as you’re already an R&D Project Manager – I don’t need to keep telling you what you’ll be doing… You need to know why you should join this company.

Well, this vacancy didn’t come up for nothing. The precision scanning instruments being designed here are selling like hot cakes and the new products coming out are going to disrupt the technology industry and make everyone wonder why they ever used anything else. Due to the relatively flat structure, the sky is the limit for career progression. As well as that, you’ll truly get a work life balance – with work from home and flexible working not only offered, but actively encouraged. You’ll get a good salary and an opportunity to train and upskill whenever possible.

So…what you waiting for? Click apply, send an email, or give me a call and we can discuss this in more detail.

Look forward to speaking to you!
