At Electrogenos, we're building technology to make green hydrogen competitive at scale. We focus on reducing the cost and complexity of hydrogen production so it can replace fossil-based alternatives across real-world applications. We're an early-stage team working at the intersection of electrochemistry, manufacturing, and deployment.
We are looking for an experienced R&D Project Manager to own the delivery of our most important projects — the person accountable for making sure each one is planned properly, moves at pace, and lands on time and in scope. As we scale towards our first international MW-scale pilot deployments, and a manufacturing pathway, the number of moving parts is growing fast. This role exists to bring structure, visibility, and momentum to all of it.
The role exists at the interaction of the strategy, operations and technical teams. You will own a portfolio of concurrent projects — from an international pilot deployment, to a manufacturing scale-up, to grant-funded R&D programmes. For each, you will define what needs to be delivered, break it into tasks and milestones, build and maintain the plan, and drive it through to completion. You will coordinate delivery across the whole company — aligning scientists, engineers, and external partners on priorities, dependencies, and deadlines — while giving the founders and the board a clear, honest line of sight on where every project stands.
This is a senior coordination and delivery role. You will be responsible for owning the plan, driving the critical path, and making sure the science, and everything around it, actually lands. You will be the steady, organised force that keeps ambitious projects on track and holds delivery to the timeline.
-
Define project scope, deliverables, and milestones for each project, working with the founders and technical leads to turn ambitions into a clear, realistic plan
-
Build and own detailed project plans — Gantt charts, critical paths, dependency maps, and timelines — and keep them live as reality changes
-
Coordinate delivery across R&D, engineering, and external partners: align owners on what needs to happen, in what order, and by when
-
Own the critical path — anticipate blockers, resolve dependencies, and keep work moving so projects don't slip
-
Own the risk and issue register: surface risks early, drive mitigations, and escalate what needs a founder's decision
-
Run project reviews and steering meetings — driving decisions, tracking commitments, and keeping delivery on plan
-
Read and synthesise technical documents well enough to understand real status and ask the right questions (you don't need to be the expert)
-
Give leadership and the board visibility — clear status reporting, dashboards, and straight read-outs on what's on track and what isn't
-
Hold delivery to account across several projects in parallel without letting any of them drift
-
5+ years in project or programme delivery, or 3+ years having independently owned complex, multi-workstream projects end to end
-
A track record of actually landing technical projects on time — owning the plan, not just supporting someone else's
-
Fluency with project planning tools (e.g. MS Project, Smartsheet, or equivalent) and genuine command of Gantt charts, critical path, and dependency management
-
Strong stakeholder management — able to align, influence, and hold technical and non-technical people to delivery commitments, at all levels
-
Excellent written communication and structured, clear reporting to leadership
-
Solid risk and issue management
-
Comfortable reading technical documentation and operating in a scientific or engineering environment
-
Autonomous and senior in mindset — owns outcomes and drives delivery without supervision
-
Project management experience within R&D, engineering, deep-tech, or another hard-science or regulated environment
-
A recognised project management qualification — PRINCE2 and/or APM PMQ (or working toward one); PMP is a plus given our international projects
-
Experience delivering hardware, manufacturing scale-up, or pilot and commissioning projects
-
Familiarity with grant-funded or publicly funded projects (Innovate UK, Horizon Europe, or similar)
-
Comfort coordinating delivery across countries and time zones
-
Spanish language skills is a plus
You're an experienced delivery owner — the person leadership trusts to take an ambitious, complex project and make it land. You've spent years defining what needs to happen, building the plan, and driving it to the finish, and you take real pride in projects that arrive on time and in a leadership team that always knows exactly where things stand. You think in timelines and dependencies, you stay calm when plans move, and you're as comfortable driving a technical lead to hit a milestone as you are giving a CEO a straight answer on where a project really stands.
You're drawn to hard, meaningful problems and to a company where the projects genuinely matter. You want to own delivery, not administer it, and you're looking for a role with real scope that grows as the company does.
-
Own the delivery of the projects that define our next few years — from international pilot deployments to manufacturing scale-up
-
Direct access to the founders and board-level visibility from day one
-
Work at the frontier of green hydrogen, on a technology with genuine potential to change the economics of the industry
-
Real breadth and variety — no two projects are the same
-
A role that grows as we scale from a small team toward 20+ people, with a path into programme and delivery leadership
-
A mission-driven team building real technology for the energy transition
-
Competitive salary, discussed during the interview process
