Yolk Recruitment are recruiting for an Engineering Project Manager, offering a fantastic opportunity for either an experienced Engineering Project Manager or a Project Engineer ready to step up into a broader, more autonomous position.

This position sits at the heart of the business, acting as the link between customers and internal teams across engineering, quality, operations, and supply chain. You'll be responsible for coordinating projects from initial concept through to production, ensuring timelines are met and stakeholders stay aligned.

Working in an SME environment means you won't be buried under excessive project volume but you will be expected to take ownership, drive progress, and proactively chase actions to keep things moving. Projects can range from long-term NPI programmes (sometimes spanning years) through to engineering changes and tooling repairs, so no two days will look the same.
