Senior Project Manager - Gloucester

We’re a growing consultancy that’s built its reputation on doing things a bit differently. Over the last 10 years, we’ve doubled in size, become one of the first consultancies globally to achieve B Corp status, and earned a Queen’s Award for Enterprise in Sustainable Development – all things we’re really proud of. We place just as much value on how we work as what we’ve achieved. No overly corporate culture, no being boxed into one sector, and no being just another name in a large team.
