Senior Project Manager

First things first: A couple of things to know about this role

Eastern Time Zone working hours are a must. We're a fully remote team, and for this role, we're looking for someone based in either the Eastern or Central Time Zone who can consistently work Eastern Time Zone hours. Our Senior Project Managers work closely with clients and teammates throughout the day, so consistent overlap is essential for collaboration, communication, and keeping projects moving. Candidates based in Central Time are welcome, provided they're comfortable maintaining an Eastern Time Zone schedule.

Creative agency experience is a big plus. Experience working in a design, branding, marketing, or creative agency environment is highly valued. You'll be managing creative projects, collaborating with multidisciplinary teams, and navigating client relationships, so familiarity with the pace, processes, and nuances of agency life will help you hit the ground running. That said, we're open to candidates from other backgrounds who bring strong project management skills and relevant experience.

The Role

We're looking for a Senior Project Manager to help guide client work from kickoff through delivery. You'll sit at the center of projects, connecting clients, strategists, designers, and developers to ensure great ideas become great deliverables.

You'll manage scope, timelines, priorities, and communication across multiple projects while building strong client relationships and helping teams stay focused on what matters most.

You Might Love This Role If...

You're the person who knows what's happening, what's coming next, and what might go sideways before it does. You're good at keeping clients in the loop, creative teams on track, and a dozen moving pieces from falling through the cracks. You're organized, adaptable, great with people, and genuinely enjoy seeing a project come together from start to finish.
