Project Manager

dotdotdash is a global experience innovation agency helping brands create new paradigms. By decoding early signals from technology, culture and human behaviour, we unite design craft, emerging technology and business acumen to turn insight into action. Backed by Omnicom and expanding across Europe, our Amsterdam studio is where ideas become real things — prototyped, built, shipped and proven to deliver measurable impact.

A project at dotdotdash is not a task list. It is the work that changes what a brand can do.

We are looking for a Digital Project Manager who can take very different kinds of work — a website, a campaign, an AI-content system, a brand design, a digital strategy, a service blueprint — and reliably move it from brief to shipped. Someone organised, accountable, proactive and hungry, who keeps teams aligned and momentum high without losing sight of quality.

This is a role about mindset and attitude as much as years on a CV. If you are a strong generalist who loves making things happen across disciplines, and you want to grow fast inside a studio that is building something new, this is for you. At this level, your impact will span four dimensions:

• The Work: Take diverse projects across web, campaigns, AI content, brand, design and strategy from kickoff to launch, on time and on budget.
• The Team: Be the connective tissue across strategy, creative, design, data and engineering, keeping everyone aligned and moving toward the same goal.
• The Client: Be a reliable, proactive point of contact who translates client ambition into clear briefs and honest next steps.
• The Craft: Help build the dotdotdash way of working, sharpening how we plan, deliver and use AI to work smarter.

Your Impact

1. Delivery & Ownership - You make things happen.

• Own project delivery from kickoff through launch, with scope, schedule and budget clearly defined and actively managed
• Translate creative and strategic vision into clear briefs, sprint backlogs and actionable tasks
• Run work in sprints: plan from a prioritised backlog, keep estimates and dependencies current, and let dates drive problem-solving
• Anticipate risk proactively and put mitigation plans in place before issues arise
• Keep momentum and accountability high, and bring every project to a clean close-out

2. Working Across Disciplines - You are the glue.

• Coordinate diverse work — websites and applications, campaigns, content systems, brand and service design — across multiple channels
• Hold the thread between strategy, design, engineering and data so nothing falls between the gaps
• Support collaboration across multiple agencies and stakeholders, presenting a unified team to the client
• Understand enough about how things connect — systems, content, data, dependencies — to keep delivery moving and to translate between technical and non-technical people

3. Working Smarter with AI & Data - You use the tools to do better work, faster.

• Use AI thoughtfully as a partner in delivery, to surface insight, summarise project health and reduce manual effort, so you can focus on the work that matters
• Support content management and publishing across CRM, web, email and other digital platforms
• Monitor campaign and product performance, follow up on optimisations, and turn data into clear next steps
• Spot opportunities to improve estimation, ways of working and quality by learning from every project

4. Client & Commercial - You protect the relationship and the numbers.

• Create, manage and monitor project estimates, planning, resourcing, budgets, timelines and (financial) administration
• Build trusted relationships with client stakeholders and work arm in arm with our Account partners to manage expectations
• Keep a keen eye on the client’s business and brand challenges, and create and protect client satisfaction
• Coordinate multiple projects simultaneously, delivered on strategy, on brand, on time and within budget

What You Bring

• Around 2–5 years of experience delivering digital projects, in an agency, studio, consultancy or product environment
• A track record of getting different kinds of work shipped: websites, campaigns, AI content, brand or design, digital or service design
• Organised, accountable, proactive and hungry; you take ownership and you don’t sit and wait
• A strong generalist who is comfortable working across disciplines and switching context without dropping the ball
• Genuine curiosity about how digital products, content, data and AI get built; you think in systems, not just tasks (you don’t need to code)
• Comfort with modern delivery tooling (e.g. Jira, Smartsheet, Confluence, Figma, Frame.io and the Microsoft stack) and an appetite to use AI to work smarter, not harder
• A “yes, and…” mindset and a supported point of view; you never execute blindly and you’re not afraid to ask questions
• Excellent communication in English; Dutch is a strong advantage
• Above all, the right attitude. We care more about how you think and show up than the exact line on your CV

Why Join Us

• Work on genuinely varied projects across brand, content, technology and product; you won’t be doing the same thing twice
• Help build dotdotdash’s creative and technical infrastructure for the agentic era, inside a studio that is growing fast
• Grow quickly with real ownership, professional development, training and coaching
• Work with ambitious national and international brands on work that makes a measurable impact
• A collaborative, entrepreneurial and supportive team culture, backed by Omnicom
• Competitive salary and attractive secondary benefits, with flexible and hybrid working
