Your Role

We are currently looking for a Customer Care & Experience Project Manager to drive the delivery of key transformation workstreams and to continue to build an even more customer-centric business. They will add value through supporting the delivery of key initiatives aligned to our Customer Care 3-year plan and wider business strategy. ASOS Customer Care has ambitions to become industry leading in their customer experience and we are looking for a customer centric project manager to help get us there.

As Project Manager, the role will ensure that key project milestones and deliverables are met on time and to budget. Project reporting will also be a key part of the role, requiring RAG status reports to be produced on a fortnightly basis to feed into programme boards. They’ll be confident in identifying and articulating risks clearly, escalating where appropriate and mobilising recovery plans to mitigate future issues. The role requires stakeholder management across multiple teams with varying levels of seniority, ensuring alignment, clarity and pace throughout the project lifecycle.

They will support both operational and product functions within our Customer Care Product Team, applying best practices and project management methodologies on a daily basis to successfully deliver a range of projects and initiatives. This role blends structure and adaptability to ensure projects land successfully and contribute to a best in class customer experience.

About the role

  • Develop and maintain comprehensive project plans, including timelines, milestones, and resource allocation
  • Lead cross-functional teams, motivating and guiding them to achieve project objectives
  • Manage project budgets, track expenses, and optimise resource utilisation
  • Identify and mitigate potential risks that may impact project success

That’s why our approach to working together includes spending at least three days a week in the office. It’s a rhythm that speeds up decision-making, helps ASOSers learn from each other more quickly, and builds the kind of culture where people can grow, create, and succeed.

I love working at ASOS in my team because of the great atmosphere. From day one I already felt like being part of the team, everyone is so friendly, approachable and willing to help. It’s the place where you feel trusted and are given the opportunities & time to explore your full potential. As someone who just relocated to London, I also appreciate the international and cultural diverse environment – it’s ok to be whoever you want to be!
As a software engineer with a love for fashion, I feel extremely lucky to be part of a fashion company that priorities technology, innovation and customer experience to the same degree as their clothing.
As someone who left ASOS after 7 years but came back, it speaks volumes how much I love working at ASOS. The obvious reason is the people, not just in Tech but beyond. There's an unspoken respect and authenticity between everyone who works here

We are Customer First

We couldn’t be ASOS without our customers.

Across every behaviour, value, and all that we do, we see everything through our customers’ eyes. That means never taking anything for granted and always zeroing in on every single detail. So we can always bring our best as a team, and our customers can have an amazing experience, every time. 

We are Authentic

We work together to be honest, transparent, and our full authentic selves.

This is our ASOS. Our culture, built on collaboration and togetherness, and supported by what’s real and honest. We know that we win bigger when we win as a diverse team. That means celebrating our differences and using them to help us stand out from the crowd, without losing our authenticity and individuality.

We are Brave

We challenge each other to aim high and reach our potential.

Doing nothing gets us nowhere. We may be proud of everything we’ve done so far, but there’s still so much more to explore. We believe we can always be wiser, faster, stronger, bigger, braver, kinder…so asking ‘why’ isn’t just a question, it’s a necessity. We use our voice to drive us forward, speaking up on the things our people and customers care about and using our curiosity to create possibility. 

We are Creative

We know innovation leads to inspiration – it’s what makes us stronger

Change is in our DNA. By acting fast and staying one step ahead of the curve, we can be a leader, not a follower. But for our products and platform to be innovative, they have to be fuelled by creative passion and a deep understanding of our customers and our people. 

We always Deliver

We couldn’t be excellent without evidence – so whatever we’re doing, we have proof of why we’re doing it.

It takes facts and data to tell our stories and help us make our decisions in the most effective way possible. This means we can do what we say and own what we do, no matter how long it takes us to do it. We aren’t about nonsense ifs, buts and maybes, we’re about creating an ASOS that’s built for future success on delivered success. 

Our Benefits

  • Employee Discount

    The most asked-about benefit! As an ASOSer, you’ll receive an exclusive employee discount. You can also nominate a family member or friend to share your discount with.

  • Pension

    Retirement might not be on your mind right now, but it’s important to prep for it. We offer matched contributions up to 5% to help you save.

  • Private Medical Care scheme

    If you join our Private Medical Care scheme, you’ll get fast and effective access to medical cover. 

  • Bonus

    What we achieve is always a team effort. That’s why we offer a discretionary bonus scheme which rewards you based on our group financial and strategic performance.

  • Celebratory Day!

    Get an extra day off in addition to the 25 days of annual leave you get! Spend it celebrating the big days in life, whether it’s birthdays, cultural holidays, weddings and anything else.

  • Shuttlebus Service (if you're based in our Leavesden office)

    It’s more of a work perk, but we offer a free shuttlebus between Watford station and our office in Leavesden.

  • Sample Sales

    We’ve always got fun things happening in our offices, but the one ASOSers get most excited about is our sample sales. Plus, all proceeds from the sample sale get donated to the ASOS Foundation, which helps our charity partners abroad. 

  • Career Development

    You’ll have the opportunity for personalised learning and in-the-moment experiences to create a dynamic and agile learning environment that empowers you to thrive and excel in your role.

  • Summer Hours

    We finish at 3pm on Fridays in June, July and August!! This perk doesn’t mean a dip in your salary – it just gives you extra freedom to enjoy those summer weekends however you want.

Location

Our Leavesden office, Hertfordshire.

This is where our Customer Care and Operations teams do their amazing work – right next to the Harry Potter studios! Our Leavesden office has a subsidised canteen, free gym, beauty rooms, free on-site parking and a useful shuttlebus service to and from Watford station.
