Are you organised? Do you like talking to people? Do you get a buzz off writing 'To Do Lists'? And are you passionate about digital culture?

If you like all of the above, Project Management may be a role for you. Project managers ensure that a project is completed on time and within budget. They look after the digital team, and keep the client happy through with constant communication. Understanding the project's objectives, making sure they are met and that everyone else is doing their job properly. Projects are usually separate to usual day-to-day business activities and require a group of people to work together to achieve a set of specific objectives. Project managers oversee jobs to ensure the best result is achieved, and the most efficient resources are used.
