Train Your Accidental Project Manager…and Watch the Chaos Settle

Tame and Train the People Already Doing the Work. Your best team players are already managing projects...just without the training, title, or tools.

Help Them Tame Their Project Monster

In every fast-moving business, there’s someone who keeps things together.

It might be your operations coordinator. Your marketing all-rounder. A developer who just gets things done.

Without the job title, without the training, they’re already doing the job of a project manager…and they’re probably doing it under pressure.

We call them accidental project managers.

These are the people who pick up responsibilities others avoid. Who chase timelines, juggle tasks, manage expectations and keep everyone moving.

They’re the glue - but without support, even the best of them will crack.

The Hidden Cost of Untrained Project Management

According to the Association for Project Management (APM), nearly 1 in 5 UK projects fail outright – and most fall short on time, scope, or budget.

  • Poor project delivery costs UK businesses billions each year, especially in fast-paced sectors like digital and tech
  • APM’s salary survey shows trained project professionals earn significantly more, with better retention and performance outcomes

In a recent YouGov poll, 3 in 4 project professionals said they were ‘self-taught’ or learned on the job before formal training

Every Month You Wait Is a Project at Risk
Untrained project managers cost time, money, and momentum...and in fast-moving teams, small delays become lost revenue.

The Autumn cohort is filling fast, and with funding windows set by government cycles, missing this intake could mean missing the chance to train your team at no cost.

Don’t let your best people burn out doing work they’ve never been trained for.
Now is the time to act.

The Opportunity: Train Them, Don’t Lose Them

Our Level 4 Agile Project Management Apprenticeship is built for people already delivering. No need for day release or evening study, they learn while they work, applying tools and methods directly to live projects.

It’s real-world training, in real time, for the people keeping your projects alive.

And for UK employers, it’s fully or mostly funded. SMEs get 95 to 100 percent of the cost covered through government support or the Apprenticeship Levy.

What Changes When Your Accidental PM Gets Trained

  • Projects run smoother, with less firefighting
  • Targets get hit more often — and with less stress
  • They can finally ‘speak project’ with leadership
  • People stay longer when they feel supported
  • Fewer blockers, more momentum

This isn’t classroom theory. It’s a flexible programme designed around your tools, platforms and priorities. We build a tailored learning plan with you and the learner so their development drives your outcomes.
