Job Description
Our mission is to make meaningful learning a part of your everyday 🧠. The shelf life of our skills is now less than 5 years. So, if you stopped learning today, your skills would soon be irrelevant. Think that’s a big problem? You’d be right.
Enter HowNow. Founded in 2019, our Learning and Skills Platform is disrupting the way people learn and upskill through technology. Whether it's finding a quick answer, learning skills or tapping into shared knowledge, we make it easy for people to learn what they need, when they need it.
Already used by fast-growing scale-ups and global enterprises, such as Trainline, Depop and Sanofi, we’re pushing the boundaries of how people learn.
Hi I'm Kuvera the COO at HowNow 👋🏾 I’m looking for an experienced Project Manager to join us.
You'll be at the heart of our growth, building great partnerships, and making sure everything runs smoothly. If you're excited about leading strategy, managing projects, and really making a difference, this job is perfect for you.
You’ll find energy in taking an abstract brief or desired end state and working cross-functionally to identify how that can be achieved, who may need to be involved, and driving it to completion and measuring the impact.
Alongside the opportunities to develop and grow your career, we're a fun and friendly bunch. Have a watch of the video below to get an understanding of what it's like to work here.

- Risk Management. You'll identify potential risks and develop mitigation strategies, and address any issues promptly to keep the project on track.
Customer-Facing Projects:
- Client Onboarding and Communication. You'll guide new clients through the onboarding process, serving as the main technical point of contact addressing any inquiries and providing updates to them.
- Requirement Gathering and Feedback Integration. You'll work with clients to understand their needs and translate them into project requirements. You'll collect and analyse customer feedback, to inform product improvements.
