Marketing, Project Manager
About the role
We are seeking a highly organized, solutions-oriented Performance Marketing Project Manager to join our internal growth and creative team. The role involves dual-track project execution, creative & growth synchronization, cross-functional traffic control, agile resource & sprint management, championing growth ops & tooling, and marketing technology enablement.
Responsibilities
- Dual-Track Project Execution: Lead the planning and execution of growth-focused campaigns, managing both the technical growth marketing workflows and the creative asset production.
- Creative & Growth Synchronization: Translate marketing strategies, growth test hypotheses, and performance data into clear, actionable creative briefs, production timelines, and asset feedback loops.
- Cross-Functional Traffic Control: Serve as the central air traffic controller between growth marketers, internal creatives, external agencies, and broader internal stakeholders.
- Agile Resource & Sprint Management: Actively monitor creative bandwidth, copy/design resourcing, and shifting media budget priorities, escalating risks early, managing creative burnout, and unblocking bottlenecks before they delay a campaign launch.
- Support Rapid Experimentation: Coordinate the high-volume operational pipeline required for continuous A/B testing, ensuring variations of copy, hooks, and visuals are delivered on time for paid media deployment.
- Champion Growth Ops & Tooling: Maintain absolute clarity and documentation across all workflows using project management tools, ensuring data-driven performance insights easily loop back into future creative sprints.
- Marketing Technology Enablement: Partner with engineering and data infrastructure teams to scope, sequence, and drive cross-functional projects that build net-new marketing capabilities, such as multi-touch attribution and CRM data integrations, keeping both sides accountable to shared milestones.
Requirements
- Experience: 5+ years of experience in project management, creative operations, or production within an in-house growth marketing team, performance marketing agency, or fast-paced digital brand.
- Performance Literacy: A strong understanding of growth marketing ecosystems, creative testing frameworks, and the fast-turnaround requirements of paid social (Meta, TikTok, Google) and organic acquisition (SEO).
- Process Mastery: Demonstrated success managing fast-moving creative teams, with a hyper-focus on detail, QA/QC, and timeline tracking.
- Agency & Vendor Management: Proven experience coordinating with external partners, ensuring external SEO and media agencies receive the brand assets they need on schedule while keeping them accountable to internal deadlines.
- Communication & Influence: Exceptional interpersonal skills; you are a natural connector who can communicate effectively with technical data analysts, creative designers, and executive stakeholders alike.
Qualifications
- Bias toward action: You don’t wait for permission. You see a bottleneck in the creative pipeline or an upcoming campaign deadline and you actively move people and processes forward.
- Data-Informed Context: While you don't need to be a data analyst, you appreciate numbers. You understand that creative success in this role is tied directly to performance metrics (CTR, conversion rates, ROAS).
- Adaptability under pressure: Paid media landscapes change fast. You stay cool-headed when an ad account needs a creative pivot mid-week and can re-prioritize the team's sprint smoothly.
- Collaborative problem solver: You see yourself as the ultimate facilitator, building bridges between the "art" of the creative team and the "science" of the growth team.
