A vibrant, creative agency, carrying out exciting, award-winning campaigns for the biggest and brightest technology companies in the world is looking for a Project Manager.

Their portfolio of clients include huge global brands in the IT and telco industries.

The agency actively encourages a healthy work-life balance and offer a great working environment.

Their dynamic team of consultants, designers, writers and developers come from a range of backgrounds, but they all share a passion for developing and executing exemplary integrated campaigns that delight their clients and drive real results.
