Job Description:
What does the Company do?

DRAMS provides bulk inventory and distillery warehouse management software designed to meet the unique requirements of maturing spirit producers. Our systems are used by a number of high-profile UK and international companies including Suntory Global Spirits, Bacardi, Campari, Wm Grant & Sons, Whyte & Mackay and Glenmorangie.

We are part of Volaris Group, a global group of vertical market software businesses, offering the stability of a larger organisation alongside the agility of a close-knit specialist team.

What is unique about the role/ Company?
  • You will have the opportunity to work in a close-knit and experienced team, who will provide an excellent support network around you.
  • You'll not only get the opportunity to make a key contribution to the way we run our business locally, but you'll also be able to navigate your future career within the wider Volaris Group globally - the best of both worlds we think!
  • We offer a comprehensive on-boarding process, as well as access to experienced peers both locally and across the globe as part of the Volaris family - all with a view to helping you grow your career and perform at your best, both inside and outside of work!

What will I be doing day-to-day?

This is an exciting opportunity for a motivated Associate Project Manager to join our team and help run the day-to-day delivery of our customer implementation and upgrade projects. You'll be responsible for running the mechanics of delivery across multiple customer projects - coordinating consultants, managing plans, leading calls and keeping everything on track. You'll work closely with our Professional Services Manager, who sets strategy and governance, while you own day-to-day execution seeing projects through from start to finish. If you enjoy organising complex work, working directly with customers, and driving projects forward - this is for you.

Your key responsibilities will include:

Project Support
  • Chair weekly customer project calls and drive clear actions and next steps
  • Lead the day-to-day coordination and delivery of assigned implementation and upgrade projects
  • Run standard projects independently using established plans, templates and processes
  • Act as the primary day-to-day contact for customers during delivery
  • Plan, schedule, and coordinate project activities and resources.
  • Maintain and update project plans, timelines, task lists, and risk/issue logs using Zoho Projects
  • Prepare project documentation including agendas, meeting minutes, and action logs.
  • Track project milestones, budgets, and deliverables (days used vs remaining)
  • Manage smaller change requests in line with agreed processes
  • Escalate complex, commercial or contractual issues to the Professional Services Manager

Client & Internal Coordination
  • Act as a key communication point between the Professional Services team and customers
  • Manage risks, resolve issues and own action outcomes
  • Coordinate customer workshops, configuration sessions, training schedules, and deployment activities
  • Ensure customer requirements and change requests are clearly documented and communicated internally
  • Coordinate consultants and delivery schedules
  • Prepare and share regular project status updates
  • Lead internal stand-ups to align delivery activity
  • Ensure requirements, decisions and actions are clearly documented
  • Work closely with Customer Care and Product teams to ensure smooth handovers

Operational Support
  • Contribute to creating and maintaining standard operating procedures (SOPs), templates, and documentation libraries.
  • Prepare weekly status reports and delivery dashboards
  • Ensure accurate project data and reporting in Zoho Projects
  • Maintain resource schedules and flag capacity constraints
  • Track and update operational metrics, project pipeline status, and capacity reports.

General
  • Ensure project governance standards are followed and documents are consistent and accurate.
  • Identify practical ways to improve how we deliver projects
  • Work independently day-to-day while knowing when to escalate for support
  • Perform any other reasonable duties as required by Management.

What do I need to be eligible to apply?

You need:
  • Experience running or coordinating projects (preferably within software, IT, or services).
  • Strong organisational skills with the ability to prioritise competing tasks and deadlines
  • Confidence in leading customer meetings and keeping workstreams organised.
  • Experience managing multiple concurrent tasks or projects
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with confidence dealing with both internal teams and customers.
  • High attention to detail and reliability in documentation and tracking.
  • Good working knowledge of Microsoft Office tools (Excel, Word, Outlook), Jira, Zoho Projects and other collaboration platforms.
  • Ability to build strong working relationships across cross-functional teams.
  • A proactive "ownership" mindset with a solution-focused approach to problem solving.

It's not a deal breaker but we would really like it if you also had:
  • Knowledge or experience of warehousing, logistics or operational systems
  • Experience within a SaaS, technology, or software implementation environment
  • Experience of the drinks, distilling, or manufacturing sectors
  • Analytical mindset with an ability to interpret project data
  • PM qualification (PRINCE2, Agile, etc.)

DRAMS reserve the right to enhance the criteria as necessary to facilitate the shortlisting process.
