Job description

Senior Project Manager - Remote (UK-based)
Location: Remote (occasional travel, approx. 5 days per month)
Salary: £35,000 - £40,000 (depending on experience)

About the Company

Disrupt Talent is proud to be recruiting on behalf of a long-established and respected business within the exhibitions and display industry, specialising in modular exhibition stands and bespoke glass display cases.

With over 30 years of heritage, the company has evolved into a digitally driven, consultative business working with clients worldwide. As one of the UK's few remaining glass display case manufacturers, they hold a strong market position, combining technical expertise, creative design, and exceptional client service.

Operating as a boutique consultancy, the company focuses on long-term partnerships, attention to detail, and tailored solutions that set them apart from larger, transactional competitors.

About the Role
This is a fantastic opportunity for a Senior Project Manager to join a forward-thinking, close-knit team that values autonomy, flexibility, and quality of life.

You'll manage exhibition and display projects from initial enquiry through to on-site delivery, coordinating designers, contractors, and logistics partners across the UK and internationally.

The role suits someone with experience in the exhibitions or display sector, who understands both modular and bespoke builds, and is comfortable managing multiple concurrent projects. You'll bring strong organisational skills, commercial understanding, and a hands-on approach - ensuring every project is delivered on time, within budget, and to the highest standard.

The position is fully remote, with travel required for site visits and installations (around five days per month during busy periods). The company promotes trust and flexibility, empowering employees to manage their own time and workload effectively.
