Jones Knowles Ritchie is a branding business, founded in 1990 and proudly independent ever since.
We started out in the world of packaging, but now we’re worldwide: from three founders, to more than 300 of us across the UK and USA. Together, we build and deliver brands across the entire consumer experience.
But even more important than what we do, is why we do it. We’re here to inspire brands and people to be their true selves. To be brave. Be tenacious. And above all, be yourself. Because we believe that’s the only way to truly be distinctive, everywhere.
At JKR, our Motion & CGI team create best-in-class motion design for some of the world’s biggest brands.
The work is bold, fast, and creatively ambitious.
But great work doesn’t happen by accident. It runs on precision.
That’s where you come in.
As Project Manager - Motion you are the engine behind the energy.
You'll keep the Motion team running at its best by building and maintaining the operational set up that allows creativity to thrive, which includes but is not exclusive to:
Making sure the right people are on the right projects at the right time.
That work is properly scoped before it starts and that capacity is managed proactively, not firefighting.
And in short, you bring order to complexity so the team can focus on making exceptional work.
Requirements
This role is offered as a 6mth Fixed term contract with a potential to extend to a permanent role.
To apply please send a CV and a short note covering your current situation and interest in this role based on your skills and experience to date.
At JKR, our goal is to create an equitable, diverse and inclusive workplace that reflects and creates

If you remember only one thing about us, it's Be Distinctive Everywhere.
Since 1990, we’ve helped brands be who they are, only more so. Because as it turns out: being yourself is a superpower.
From strategies that reclaim crowns, raise curtains, and innovate the internet;
to iconic identities with more swagger, more flame-grilled deliciousness, more going-and-getting…
It’s all done with people who are supremely talented. But more importantly, done with people you want to hang with.
If that’s the kind of brand you want to own. Or the type of work you want to make. We’re your people.
