    Job Description

You'll also have experience in managing CRM tasks across multiple brands and familiar with multi-part requirements and data elements

    Being a good Project Manager requires a diverse mix of skills and experience. To be effective you need to be more than just organised and a good communicator. You'll need to be able to prioritise, keep calm and focused, be able to delegate, not assume too much, be approachable, and have a passion for Digital.
