New Business Projects Manager

Location: Based across company sites, with travel required
Reports to: Managing Director & Operations Manager
Contract: Permanent, 42-week part-year role
Hours: Full-time during working weeks, expected 37.5 hours per week
Pay: £19.00 per hour, inclusive of rolled-up statutory holiday pay
Contracted annual gross pay: £29,925, based on 37.5 hours per week for 42 working weeks
Working pattern: 42 working weeks per year, with 10 unpaid non-working weeks (Salary annualised across 12 months)

About the Role

We are looking for a practical, organised and hands-on New Business Projects Manager to support the planning and delivery of new projects as our organisation continues to grow.

This is a varied role for someone who enjoys solving problems, coordinating people, managing several priorities at once and turning ideas into clear, workable plans.

The successful candidate will work closely with the Managing Director, Operations Manager and wider leadership team to support new service development, operational projects, site setup and business growth.

This role would suit someone with strong project management skills, but you may also have gained relevant experience in retail management, area management, hospitality, education operations, multi-site management, business administration or service delivery.

What You’ll Be Doing

You will help plan, coordinate and deliver projects across the business. This will include working with different teams to make sure new projects are properly planned, communicated and delivered to the expected standard.

Your responsibilities will include:

Creating and maintaining project plans
Coordinating actions across different departments
Tracking deadlines, risks and progress
Following up with colleagues to keep projects moving
Supporting the setup of new services and locations
Helping develop clear processes and operating procedures
Liaising with internal teams and external stakeholders
Supporting operational readiness before new services launch
Producing checklists, plans and project updates
Identifying risks, gaps and dependencies early
Helping ensure projects are delivered on time and to a high standard

This is not a purely desk-based role. You will need to understand how services work in practice and be willing to get involved directly where needed.

Working Across the Business

The role will involve working across several areas of the organisation, including:

Operations
Education delivery
Commercial growth
Marketing
Finance
HR
Compliance
Site setup
Stakeholder engagement

You will need to understand how different parts of the business depend on one another and help make sure that projects are planned realistically before they are launched.

Travel and Flexibility

This role will require flexibility and travel.

Initially, travel is likely to be between existing company sites and local project locations. As the organisation grows, the role will involve supporting the setup of new services and locations in different areas across the country.

The successful candidate will need to be comfortable travelling, working away from their usual base when required, and supporting projects directly on the ground.

Because this is a project-based role, some flexibility around working weeks will be needed. Some projects may need support during periods when education centres are quieter or during school holiday periods.

Contract and Pay Structure

This is a 42-week part-year role.

The employee will be required to work during designated working weeks only. There will be 10 unpaid non-working weeks each year during which the employee remains employed but is not required to work and is not paid.

The role is paid at £19.00 per hour, inclusive of rolled-up statutory holiday pay.

Based on 37.5 hours per week for 42 working weeks, the contracted annual gross pay is £29,925.

About You

We are looking for someone who is:

Highly organised
Practical and hands-on
Comfortable managing multiple priorities
Confident coordinating people and actions
Good at turning ideas into plans
Able to work across different departments
Calm under pressure
Strong at following up and keeping things moving
Detail-focused but able to see the bigger picture
Comfortable with travel and flexibility
Professional when dealing with colleagues and external stakeholders

Experience

Experience in one or more of the following areas would be helpful:

Project coordination or project management
Retail management
Area management
Hospitality management
Education operations
Business administration
Multi-site operations
Service launch or site setup
Operational management

A formal project management qualification would be useful but is not essential. We are equally interested in candidates who have practical experience of making things happen in busy, fast-moving environments.

What Success Looks Like

You will be successful in this role if you can:

Keep projects organised and moving forward
Communicate clearly across teams
Spot problems early
Build practical plans and checklists
Support new services to launch smoothly
Help ensure consistency across sites and services
Work flexibly and confidently across different parts of the business

Summary

This is an exciting role for someone who enjoys variety, responsibility and practical project delivery.

The successful candidate will play an important part in supporting new projects, service development and future growth. It is a role for someone who is flexible, organised, hands-on and comfortable working across different areas of a growing organisation.

Pay: £19.00 per hour

Experience:

Managing Projects: 3 years (required)

Licence/Certification:

Driving Licence (required)

Willingness to travel:

75% (required)

Work Location: On the road
