We curate a world of beauty that's ethical, inclusive - and importantly - good fun. We inspire you to live your best life. We are Boden.

Overview

At Boden, our Project Managers play a pivotal role in delivering high-impact initiatives across the business.

This role sits within the Commercial domain of our Technology team, supporting projects for our Creative and Product functions, including Merchandising, Design, Buying and Garment Tech. You'll collaborate closely with Product Owners, Business Analysts and development teams to bring complex initiatives to life.

• Monitor and report on progress, risks, issues, resourcing and budgets
• Provide clarity on roles, responsibilities and expectations across project teams

What We're Looking For

• A strong background in delivering technology-enabled projects within an e-commerce, digital or IT environment
• Demonstrable experience leading projects of varying scale and complexity, using different delivery approaches
• Confidence managing third-party suppliers and partners
• A solid understanding of web development processes and technologies
• Experience working within skilled, multi-disciplinary teams
• The ability to engage, influence and manage expectations at senior stakeholder level
• Excellent communication, facilitation and reporting skills
