Associate Director – Information Management

Lead our information management and document control practice globally, own key client relationships and grow the team, with a clear pathway to Director.

JC Virtual PMs (JC.VPMS LTD) is a UK-based virtual consultancy delivering project management, design management, BIM, information management and document control. We work with SMEs and other clients across the UK, Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Asia, bringing joined-up project, design and information management to projects that need more than a freelancer but less than a large consultancy. We are remote-first and growing.

This is a senior leadership role at JC Virtual PMs. As Associate Director – Information Management you will lead our information management and document control practice across our global markets, including our document control and information management retainer services. You will report to the Managing Director, be the senior information management adviser to our key clients, set the standards our teams work to, and contribute actively to business development and bid strategy.

With the right mix of drive, care and accountability, this role is a clear pathway to Director level within JC Virtual PMs.
