If you'd like to join us, now's the time! We're looking for a Senior Project Manager.

A truly successful project is a rare commodity and project managers are essential to “make things happen”! You are the first and last piece of the jigsaw puzzle.

First, you have to convince the client to trust you. Then you have to understand his needs even if he cannot always express them. And at the end, you need to deliver a project that goes beyond your client's and team's expectations while keeping the budget under control.

This is the daily challenge you'll face at EPIC.

That's why we're not just looking for another getting-sh*t-done project manager but someone who can transform a simple idea into a strong vision with a great output. Someone who is a true team player with exceptional empathy skills and who is a team leader when needed.

You are a sponge for knowledge, a walking Agile Board and most of all, you get things done. You are the digital glue of the idea, the build, the output and the drive.

You are the one who makes things happen on time and budget and allow the other team members to concentrate on their tasks and not the overall bigger picture. You act as the gatekeeper for both good and bad news and filter the day-to-day communications of a project as necessary.

The truth is you are a thinker, an organiser, a diplomat, a money manager, a timekeeper, a risk assessor, but more importantly you are a doer.

And last but not least… you have a cheerful state of mind and you love to have fun building things with other smart fellows.

Team

Your role is cross-functional. You collaborate with numerous colleagues in a variety of functions. Together, you ensure the satisfaction (and even the "Wow" ) of your customers. You regularly interact with account managers, developers and designers.

You report to Julien Brohon, who holds the positions of Project Manager and Lead PM. Julien plays a dual role here, he is both your colleague and your manager. In the latter role, Julien sets a framework within which you have a great deal of autonomy. He trusts your expertise.

Be sure to fulfill all these requirements:

• You have a proven 3+ years' experience managing ambitious digital projects;
• You love technology, communication and creativity and all the things in between;
• You have used the most popular CMS (WordPress, Drupal,…) and have a good knowledge of how they work;
• You have an eagle-eye vision to find the misplaced pixel in a ready-to-be-sent design proposal;
• You know that semantic structure in MS Word is far from being the most useless feature;
• You don't look for the emergency exit when you have to speak in front of a bunch of people;
• You are convinced that Agile methodology will save the world;
• You can speak (and write) French and English fluently (any other language is strongly appreciated!).

These skills are strongly recommended but, well… learning new stuff is also part of the job.

• You don't feel lost in front of cells and complex formulas;
• You enjoy writing and people usually enjoy reading you;
• You're a musician, a sculptor, a friendly companion or you like to cook as well ? You've got all our attention;
• You're living the internet, you're eating the internet and you're sleeping with the internet but you're still in a human form.

You offer us your brain cells and we offer you in exchange:

• A permanent contract, on a 39h/week schedule (26 days off)
• A comfy and modern work environment
• An individual training program
• Work-life balance: ‘quality comes before quantity'
• A convivial, Liège-style atmosphere, with lots of informal exchanges and team building
• The opportunity to join an innovative company in the digital market, working on varied and challenging projects with trusting clients
