Blackbook Executive
Posted 13 days ago
I'm currently partnering with a high-growth, global consumer goods business to recruit a dynamic and experienced Project Manager to join their Product Design and Development team. This is a unique opportunity to work behind the scenes with a household name, designing and delivering products that reach millions of homes across Australia, the US, and Europe.
The company is renowned for its value-led, practical home and lifestyle products, and this role sits at the centre of their innovation engine - taking ideas from concept all the way through to launch.
As Project Manager, you’ll be responsible for leading and coordinating cross-functional new product development (NPD) projects. This includes working closely with design, marketing, procurement, engineering, and sustainability stakeholders to ensure successful, on-time launches of commercially viable products.
Responsibilities include:
- Plan and manage end-to-end NPD project timelines, budgets, and resource allocation.
- Be the go-to person coordinating across departments to deliver against scope and deadlines.
- Use Asana and Microsoft Suite to track project status, risks, and actions.
- Communicate clearly and regularly with internal stakeholders, resolving issues proactively.
- Ensure all development aligns with quality and compliance standards from start to finish.
Required Experience:
- Minimum 3 years’ experience in project management within NPD, consumer products, FMCG, or industrial design.
- Comfortable operating in fast-paced environments with multiple stakeholders and moving parts.
- Experience managing the full lifecycle of product development - from brief to shelf.
- Strong organisational and communication skills with a proactive, solutions-driven mindset.
- Familiarity with Asana or other project tracking software (desirable).
- PMP, PRINCE2, or equivalent project certification (advantageous but not essential).
This is more than a project management role - it’s a seat at the table of a globally expanding brand with a reputation for high-quality, innovative products. You’ll be working in a supportive, design-led culture that values initiative, teamwork, and getting great ideas over the line.
