The Job:

You might be a perfect fit, and thrive in this role if...

You enjoy the creative process and love working on a team, empowering creative people to do their best work.

You're comfortable with technology and the web. You don't write code, but you can speak intelligently about web browsers and the differences between desktop and mobile.

You're organized - a natural planner who anticipates the future and makes it happen.

You can soar between the 10,000-foot view and the deep dive into details of a sprawling creative project.

You're naturally proactive: The PM owns the project. Without you, this website will never launch. You keep the ball moving forward, build plans and schedules, monitor the team's progress, and work with the client for key meetings and deliverables -- while keeping them happy and informed.

You're flexible: You've built the perfect plan, and everyone's signed off. Suddenly, something changes outside of your control, and we need a new plan. You roll your eyes, laugh in the face of danger, and start building Plan B.

You are diplomatic and ready to bring joy to clients, while standing firm for your teammates when it counts.

You're a perfectionist. It's your eye, at the end of the day, that catches something small that everyone else might have missed.

Salary and Experience

Our ideal applicant might have 1+ year creative agency/marketing/design experience but what we're really looking for is a natural leader, a perfectionist with a love of design, comfortable with people and technology, and a passion to grow.

Starting salary compensable with experience and include benefits such as health insurance, 401K and paid vacation. Work 30+ hours per week both in person and remotely.
