Special Projects Manager

Whole problems, not work-streams. You take something ambiguous, scope it, build the plan, win the buy-in, deliver it, then either hand it over or run it. Launching a new product. Rebuilding a revenue line that has stalled. Standing up a capability from nothing.

Decisions worth making. You'll use quantitative and qualitative evidence to work out what's really going on, then make the call and defend it in front of the leadership team. Analysis that doesn't impact a decision isn't the job.

AI that does real work. You'll design and build AI systems and workflows that take work off people's plates, in content, analysis, operations or reporting. We expect you to reach for AI first, and to be the person others copy.

The narrative. Company wide updates, investor material, Board packs. You'll turn complicated business reality into something a smart outsider can follow in ten minutes.

Proof you've done something hard. A business you built, a product you launched, a number you moved, a broken thing you fixed. We care about what happened, not what you were responsible for.

Real AI fluency. You've built your own tools, agents or workflows, not just used a chatbot. Come ready to show us.

Speed with judgement. You've worked somewhere genuinely fast, most likely a high growth startup, strategy consulting or similar and you know the difference between impact and effort.

Comfort with numbers and with people. You can build the model, then sit with an underwriter, a regulator or a shareholder and be taken seriously in both rooms.

Ownership as an instinct. Nobody will hand you a brief, a template or a team. You'll find the work, prioritise it and finish it.

Communication that lands. Clear writing, clear slides, clear thinking, in front of any audience from an engineer to the Board.

You work AI-first. Y ou will use AI daily here, and we mean daily. You do not need to arrive an expert, but you do need to arrive curious, experiment fast, and take ownership of getting good quickly. People who wait to be trained will find this uncomfortable.

Teams work better with time to collaborate and space to get things done. We call it Zego Hybrid: some of us are in our central London office weekly, others monthly or quarterly. It's about finding the balance between face time and focus that produces great work and a healthy life around it.

We also make a point of getting everyone in the same room. Teams come together every quarter, and once a year the whole company does, properly. It's a serious investment and consistently one of the best parts of the year.

Here is what the last one looked like .

We're an equal opportunity employer and we value diversity at our company. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, or disability status.
