We have an engaged and diverse team of about 35 colleagues dedicated to collaboration and producing excellent work. We’re project-focused and deadline-driven – so some days may be longer than others. But even when it’s busy, we make time for team activities and encourage participation (whether virtual or in person).

The Role

As a project manager at Works Design, you are a key member of the account team, blending the higher-level strategy of account direction with the detailed problem-solving of day-to-day project management. Managing the conflict between these two parts of your job will be key to your success.

The Day-to-day

Preparing quotes, briefs, estimates, proposals, schedules and invoices

Participating in client and internal meetings and presentations

Delegating tasks to a team of design, web and print production specialists

Obtaining approvals and sign-offs both internally and from clients

Communicating project objectives and scope to design, development and production teams

Facilitating decisions and encouraging cooperation in a fast-paced environment

The Ideal Candidate

Minimum three years managing online and print projects in a busy agency environment

Must have experience with projects in an agency setting across our main practice areas (stakeholder communications, brand and collateral development)

Proficiency in organizing and orchestrating complex projects

Ability to juggle multiple (and competing) clients, projects and priorities

Good interpersonal communication skills and a team-player attitude

Excellent problem-solving and time-management skills

A sense of humour, collegial approach and passion for client service

Additional Expectations

As a member of the Project Management team,



you will be expected to make a meaningful contribution to the overall success of the agency. We expect you to find opportunities to deliver increased value and leading-edge excellence for clients, while creating a platform for your colleagues to learn and to do their best work.

Our workload fluctuates throughout the year, with periods of particularly high activity. Project Managers are expected to be available and actively involved at key stages of all projects to support successful delivery. Occasional late evenings may be required to meet project deadlines and client needs.

Our current working model is flexible, allowing employees to work from home or the office, depending on individual preferences and business requirements. Working arrangements may evolve as business needs change. The role may also require occasional studio attendance and travel to client locations.

All Works Design colleagues must adhere to our policies and procedures and embody the company’s values: collaboration, curiosity, accountability, optimism and inclusion.
