Producer

We are looking for someone with experience of delivering projects, and an interest in arts and technology, who is looking to progress their career.

We call our project managers Producers, because for us, there's much more to it than spreadsheets, budgets and meetings.

Producers at Cogapp:

• Manage dynamic projects with wonderful content for amazing clients

• Are trusted and supported by leadership and colleagues

• Consider organisational strategy and user experience

• Build and maintain relationships with clients around the world

• Receive a competitive salary, profit-share bonus scheme, and helpful perks.

This is a permanent, full time position. 

Annual salary: £30,000 to £35,000 dependent on experience (+ bonus).

We particularly welcome applications from under-represented groups in the tech industry.

The role

You will be in charge of managing the ongoing development and support of websites  for some of the most significant cultural institutions in the world. This will involve managing your team of designers and developers, collaborating with your client, and reporting to the wider company. 

Our clients are museums, archives, libraries and cultural institutions, who have beautiful content and creative ambitions. You will collaborate with established Cogapp clients, work with developers to continuously improve our work, and have the opportunity to learn from colleagues, conferences and training. 

Depending on your experience and areas of interest, Producers also contribute to user experience and design thinking, proposals and marketing efforts, and QA testing and working with the team to improve internal processes. 

About you

You will have experience managing projects. If they are digital, software, arts-related or for external clients, great, but that’s not a requirement as long as you can demonstrate transferable skills.

You are a clear and confident communicator in person and writing.

You enjoy responsibility, leading a team and take pride in your work.

You are flexible in your approach to problem-solving and prioritisation.

You are pleasantly ambitious, and unashamedly organised.

You are looking to develop your career.

Your interests and values make a career at Cogapp a good fit.
