tcpl are looking for a smart, organised and self-motivated Project Manager to join our exceptional and experienced team.

About us

tcpl is a thriving, innovative and successful e-commerce development agency for a growing number of high profile online retailers.

  • We provide e-commerce services to some of the UK's biggest online retailers across a diverse range of industries (River Island, Kingfisher, Oxfam, French Connection, Toast, etc???)

We encourage everyone to put ideas forward, make decisions and get on with improving our products and services. We value smart people who are experts in their field, who care deeply about crafting great products and e-commerce solutions, and who get things done. Our collaborative environment gives team members the confidence to share ideas and to learn from each other.

Though we have a strong sense of purpose and focus on delivery we are a relaxed and sociable team who get on well inside and outside of the office.
