• Do you enjoy the satisfaction of taking projects from concept to delivery?
• Would you find it rewarding to help leading businesses succeed?
• Would you relish the opportunity to help our clients improve the sustainability of their purchasing?

You’ll be given a warm welcome into a team of 17 other colleagues, who collaborate on a varied portfolio of creative projects. As a Project Manager, your support will be key to maintaining the high service levels that our loyal clients rely on, from handling enquiries to ensuring that deliveries are made on time. You’ll work closely with our Account Managers, who lead our sales activities. You’ll also benefit from the support of a peer group, with two other colleagues working within our Client Service Team.

You’ll be a perfect fit for this role if you;

• Are confident and comfortable communicating with business people over the telephone and through emails.
• Have literacy and numeracy skills that support the accurate development of costed client proposals.
• Have finely tuned project management skills that you apply to the highest professional standards, e.g. with a keen eye for detail, whilst effectively prioritising work to meet deadlines.
• Have a commercial mindset, which you would apply to the profitability of existing projects and the development of new sales leads.
• Use Microsoft Office programmes competently and rely on IT to solve challenges and create opportunities.
• Feel enthusiastic about the value creativity, print and marketing have to successful businesses.
• Are prepared to be hands on with all the tasks that keep our team working effectively, whether filing paperwork or thinking creatively about marketing projects.
• Have a positive, self-driven, results-orientated outlook.
• Are enthusiastic about learning and self-development, including potential career progression.

Knowledge of our business sector is not essential, full training will be provided. A good starting point is merely that you are enthusiastic about the potential of design, print, mailing and marketing projects to add value to businesses. Perhaps you appreciate good, eye-catching designs, or take note of engaging marketing campaigns? You may recognise the power of social media or admire well written copy?

The role can be full-time across our core business hours of 8.30am – 5pm, Monday to Friday. A request to work part-time hours will be considered, particularly where an applicant is able to offer flexibility within their working pattern.

Applicants should be able to work from Systematic HQ in Caistor, Lincolnshire, LN7 6QA during the first few months of their training. Beyond this point, a remote working request could be considered for a proportion of working hours. Most members of our team enjoy the benefits that come with hybrid working, spending two days a week in the office and working remotely at other times. Our systems, processes and the way that we communicate support this way of working, which has improved our team’s productivity and work-life balance.

The benefits that our team enjoy include;

• A 28 day annual leave allowance, plus bank holidays (3 leave days are typically used at Christmas time, to give our team the opportunity for an extended break between Christmas and New Year)
• Auto-enrolment in a pension scheme, with a generous 8% employer contribution
• Access to our company wide One Team profit-sharing bonus on completion of a probationary period, (pro-rata to hours)
• A program of social events funded by Systematic, pub lunches, parties and an afternoon at the races are just some of the events that feature in our 2022 social calendar
• We have a few perks that make life a bit easier too, including free parking when working from our Caistor HQ and access to free tea and coffee.
