Project Manager (Technical Programmes)

Grounded in a talent-centric mindset, Maker Lab is a marketing agency designed to build decentralised technology-led agency teams, rooted in collaboration with clients from the ground up. Maker Lab’s cross-functional teams of multidisciplinary specialists are embedded into client teams across digital marketing competencies — from measurement & analytics to content production.

Role Summary:

We’re excited to be supporting our client, a leading technology company. As a Technical Project Manager, you will have a creative edge to lead our interactive projects. You are the bridge between marketing strategy and technical execution. You will manage the roadmap for our "Brand Infrastructure"—building self-serve tools (such as logo generators or asset creators) that enable markets to scale ideas. You possess the technical expertise to assess feasibility and manage vendors, complemented by the project management skills to ensure we deliver products that function effectively.

Role: 

• AI Prototyping: Utilise Google AI Studio, Vertex AI Agent Builder, and Canvas, etc, to proactively build and deploy lightweight marketing utilities (e.g., simple localisation web apps) that speed up daily workflows.
• Interactive Program Management: Manage the end-to-end roadmap and vendor relationships for marketing tools (e.g., Event-in-a-Box microsites, Social Asset Generators) and interactive assets (e.g., webgames), ensuring they are delivered on time and within budget.
• Knowledge Infrastructure: Collaborate with the Insights & Thought Leadership team to develop and maintain the technical aspects of a claims database, ensuring the infrastructure supports the insights' needs. 
• Workflow Optimisation: Identify friction points in our operating model and implement technical automations (e.g., connecting APIs between tools) to eliminate manual administrative tasks.
• Roadmap Owner: Own the delivery timeline for all technical projects, ensuring that requirements are clear, stakeholders are updated, and bottlenecks are identified and removed.

You:

• BA/BS degree or equivalent experience

• 5+ years of experience in Technical Program Management, Interactive Production, or Product Management
• Experience managing the development of web applications, interactive sites, or internal tools from conception to launch.
• Strong technical literacy—you can read API documentation, understand CMS structures, and speak the language of engineering vendors.
• Entrepreneurial attitude with a track record of "shipping" products.
• Demonstrated experience building simple applications or workflows using Google AI Studio, Gemini API, or Vertex AI. You understand the capabilities of current LLMs and how to apply them.
• A track record of identifying a process problem and building a tool (No-Code, Python, or GenAI) to fix it. 

• Exceptional verbal and written English communication and presentation skills.
