The Role

We are looking for an experienced and results-driven Project Manager to join The Silver Spoon Company on a initial 6-month Fixed-Term Contract. This role is vital to delivering a series of high-priority, short-term projects that support our growth strategy, improve efficiency, and drive profitability across our product portfolio. Working as part of the Procurement team, you will lead the coordination and delivery of fast-moving projects through our Stage and Gate process. These include product extensions and seasonal launches, updates to flour regulations involving bought-in suppliers and manage packaging or artwork updates as required. You will work cross-functionally with teams across Brand, Technical, Supply Chain, and Compliance, as well as build effective partnerships with suppliers. Your input will be essential in ensuring these critical short-term objectives are delivered efficiently, on time, and with commercial impact.

You will be a capable and proactive Project Manager with a strong understanding of Stage and Gate processes and experience delivering results in complex, fast-paced environments. Your ability to drive projects forward, communicate effectively with stakeholders, and manage competing priorities will be essential.

We’re looking for someone who is self-motivated, detail-oriented, and thrives in a hands-on role. You should be confident navigating short timelines and tight deadlines, and able to adapt your style to influence both internal and external stakeholders. Experience in FMCG or procurement-led project work is highly desirable.

This 6 month contract offers a fantastic opportunity to make an immediate impact by delivering projects that are key to our short-term strategy—while gaining exposure to a wide range of categories and teams within the business.
