This role plays a critical part in translating strategic objectives into well-structured project plans that balance scope, timelines, resources, and risk.

This position requires strong communication skills, a high level of organization, and the ability to influence and align teams across multiple disciplines.

• Track and report on project performance using key metrics to assess progress, quality, and team effectiveness

• Utilize work management and collaboration tools to manage tasks, dependencies, milestones, and workflows while maintaining transparency

• Develop and maintain project dashboards, status reports, and visual summaries to provide clear visibility into project health

• Proactively identify, assess, and mitigate project risks and issues, developing contingency plans as needed

• Serve as the primary point of communication between project teams, stakeholders, and leadership

• Partner closely with creative, content, production, product, technology, and analytics teams to align priorities and translate ideas into executable plans

• Promote continuous improvement by incorporating evolving project management and Agile best practices

• Build and maintain strong relationships across departments and levels of leadership to support successful cross-functional collaboration

Required Skills

• Proven experience managing complex projects in a marketing or cross-functional environment

• Strong working knowledge of Agile methodologies such as Scrum and Kanban, applied in a practical and flexible manner

• Exceptional verbal and written communication skills, including the ability to present clearly to diverse audiences

• Demonstrated ability to manage stakeholders, facilitate alignment, and navigate competing priorities

• Experience with project and work management tools such as Jira, Smartsheet, Confluence, or similar platforms

• Strong organizational, problem-solving, and process improvement skills

• Ability to perform effectively in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience supporting creative, content, or marketing teams

• Advanced degree or formal Agile or project management certifications

• Background in continuous improvement initiatives or operational optimization
