Project Coordinator, Business Development

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we have sections: Brief Description ABOUT MFUSED, Role Summary, What You’ll Do (with subsections), What We’re Looking For, Schedule, Pay & Benefits, Cannabis Industry Requirements, WORK AUTHORIZATION (maybe drop as boilerplate? It's not EEO but it's work auth; we should keep? The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. WORK AUTHORIZATION is not exactly EEO but it's a legal requirement; might be considered boilerplate? Probably keep? The instruction says remove EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. WORK AUTHORIZATION is not EEO but it's a requirement; I'd keep it as a short paragraph maybe under a heading? But we should not create headings for minor metadata; we could fold into a short

. The schedule, pay, benefits section is present with details, so we should create a section with heading

Schedule, Pay & Benefits

and include the details. We also need sections for About the role? The posting has "Brief Description ABOUT MFUSED" and "Role Summary". Could combine into About the role? The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should map content to those headings. We have: - About the role: could be the Brief Description ABOUT MFUSED + Role Summary? Probably "About the role" heading with description of MFUSED and role summary. - Responsibilities: What You’ll Do (with subparts). Could be a single Responsibilities section with list. - Requirements/Qualifications/Skills: What We’re Looking For (list). Could be Requirements. - Benefits: Schedule, Pay & Benefits (we can split? but we have schedule, pay, benefits details). Could make a Benefits section with details. - Possibly also a Cannabis Industry Requirements section? Could be under Requirements or separate? The instruction says include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content. It does have Cannabis Industry Requirements; we could make a separate section maybe "Requirements" includes those. But we already have Requirements for experience/skills. Could combine? Better to have separate sections: Requirements (experience/skills) and Cannabis Industry Requirements (legal). However instruction's example headings didn't include Cannabis Industry Requirements but we can still use

for any section heading; they gave examples but not exhaustive. So we can add a heading like "Cannabis Industry Requirements". - Also we have "WORK AUTHORIZATION" maybe fold into a short p under Requirements or separate? Probably fold into a short p under Requirements or maybe under a small note. Since it's not EEO, we can keep as a short paragraph. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the posting. We need to use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

  for prose. We need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience" etc. Not present. We need to output only HTML fragment. Let's structure:

  About the role

  Brief description of MFUSED and role summary.

  We need to include the brief description: "MFUSED is a self-funded, founder-led cannabis brand and one of the largest minority-owned cannabis brands in the U.S. Founded in 2012 and headquartered in Scottsdale, Arizona, we are known for clean extracts and proprietary hardware. We sell in five states today — Arizona, Washington, New York, Missouri, and Maryland — with New Jersey and Utah next and more to follow, including international markets." Then Role Summary paragraph: "The Project Coordinator, Business Development keeps our market-entry work organized and moving. This role supports the expansion team by gathering and organizing information, tracking tasks in Asana, researching new markets, validating that research against primary sources, and analyzing data that helps leadership decide which states MFUSED enters next. Just as important, this role keeps each market-entry project on the tracks: in scope, on timeline, and on budget — from first look through the go decision and handoff to the Market Execution team, which owns the launch from there. This is not a people-leadership role — there are no direct reports. The coordinator drives momentum instead: pushing owners to hit their deadlines, keeping the expansion team and its leadership in the loop, and managing up when leadership needs to weigh in. Success depends on collaboration across teams. The coordinator works with people at every level — ownership groups, operators, and internal employees — and handles information that requires strict confidentiality. This role may be great for you if you are a paralegal wanting to make a shift or recent graduate student wanting to get into cannabis." We could combine into one

  or two. Probably one

  containing both paragraphs? But we can separate with

  each. Next

  Responsibilities

  We need to list duties from "What You’ll Do". It has bullet-like sentences separated by semicolons. We'll convert each to
• . The content includes multiple subcategories: Project Coordination & Team Support, Scope, Timelines & Budget, Market Research & Validation, Data Analysis, Contracts & Vendor Support, Cross-Team Communication & Confidentiality, Working with the Market Execution Team (maybe part of responsibilities). We'll just list each sentence as an item. Let's extract each duty: - Track expansion tasks, owners, and deadlines in Asana; keep workstreams current and flag anything at risk of slipping - Gather and organize documents, data, and updates from internal teams and outside partners so the team works from one source of truth - Prepare agendas, notes, and follow-ups for expansion meetings, and make sure action items get closed out - Prepare the handoff package at the go decision — plan, open items, contract dates, contacts, and budget to date — and walk the Project Coordinator, Market Execution through it - Keep projects in scope — when work drifts beyond what was agreed, flag it and route the change for a decision before it grows - Keep timelines honest — track milestones, surface slippage early, and hold owners to their dates - Monitor project spend and track it against budget — flag variances before they become surprises - Research new and potential markets: licensing rules, market size, pricing, competitive landscape, and regulatory timelines. This is market-entry research that answers "should we enter." - Validate findings against primary sources — state regulators, license databases, industry reports, and operator conversations. AI tools can speed up the work, but you confirm the facts before they reach the team - Summarize research into clear, accurate briefs the team can act on - Build and maintain spreadsheets, market comparisons, and models in Excel that help leadership weigh which markets to enter - Turn raw data into charts, summaries, and recommendations - Spot gaps or inconsistencies in the data and run them down - Read contracts and agreements, understand what they say, and flag questions, risks, and feedback for the team - Support vendor and partner contract tracking — key dates, deliverables, and renewals — through signature. Once a market is handed off, ongoing deliverable and renewal tracking moves with it to Operations and Market Execution - Work directly and professionally with ownership groups, operators, and internal employees at every level - Keep the expansion team and its leadership in the loop — clear, timely updates so no one is surprised - Push for deadlines and manage up — when a project needs a decision or a nudge from leadership, you raise it - Collaborate across departments — expansion touches operations, finance, legal, and marketing, and this role keeps their pre-decision inputs organized and on time. After the go decision, the Project Manager, Market Execution aligns those teams for launch - Protect confidential information — expansion plans, contract terms, and business data stay inside the team Also there is a paragraph about "WORKING WITH THE MARKET EXECUTION TEAM" describing two coordinators etc. That is more about role context; could be included as responsibilities? It's more about how the role interacts. We could include as responsibilities as well. Let's include those details as list items: - The go decision is the dividing line. The Project Coordinator, Expansion supports everything before Mfused commits to a market: market research, market selection, licensing, ownership and partner agreements, and contract review. The Project Coordinator, Market Execution (reporting to the Project Manager, Market Execution) supports everything after: product, production, launch, commercialization, and in-market initiatives. - One portfolio per market. Each new market gets a single Asana portfolio with a named handoff milestone ("Go decision / handoff to Market Execution"). Expansion owns the portfolio up to that milestone; Market Execution owns it after. There is never a second tracker for the same market. - Gray areas go up, not sideways. If it is unclear which lane a piece of work belongs in, the Expansion lead and the Project Manager, Market Execution decide. Coordinators do not negotiate scope with each other. - Cross-lane visibility. Each coordinator is a follower on the other’s portfolio so both can see status, but only the owning coordinator updates it. We'll include those as list items. Now

  Requirements

  (or Qualifications/Skills). We'll list from "What We’re Looking For". Also include "Cannabis Industry Requirements" maybe separate. Let's list requirements: - 2+ years coordinating projects or supporting a team — research, analysis, or operations backgrounds welcome - Hands-on experience with Asana (or a comparable project management tool) and strong Microsoft Office skills, especially Excel - A research habit of checking sources: you verify accuracy before you share, and you never rely solely on AI-generated information - Comfort with data analysis — building spreadsheets, comparing markets, and presenting findings clearly - An eye for scope creep, slipping dates, and budget drift — and the follow-through to raise them early - Ability to read contracts, understand them, and give useful feedback - Clear, professional communication with people at all levels, from ownership groups to line employees - Able to hold people to dates without holding a title over them — influence, follow-up, and managing up are your tools - Discretion — you can be trusted with confidential information - Clear ability to communicate and partner with people who have diverse backgrounds (international and domestic partners) + people from all levels (associates to owners) - Organized, detail-oriented, and comfortable juggling multiple work streams at once - Bachelor's degree preferred, or equivalent experience Bonus Points (we could include as part of requirements but they are bonus; we can still list as items maybe under a separate "Preferred qualifications" but we can just include them as part of requirements list; they are still substantive. - Familiarity with vendor management contracts and other types - Cannabis, CPG, or regulated multi-state industry experience - Ability to understand financial reports, cash flow statements, P&L, and balance sheets Now

  Cannabis Industry Requirements

  list: - Must be at least 21 years of age (industry requirement) - Must pass a background check as a condition of employment - Must be able to obtain and maintain any licenses, certifications, or badges required to operate as business needs require - May be exposed to cannabis and cannabis products in the course of work - Cannabis is legal in the states where we operate but remains illegal under federal law; applicants should be comfortable working in the industry Now

  Schedule, Pay & Benefits

  we need to include all details: - Onsite at our Scottsdale, AZ office, Monday–Friday - This role works with international teams and partners: evening and weekend work will be required to meet business needs — expansion doesn't always keep office hours - $31.25 per hour — $65,000 annualized at full time — with overtime pay when evening or weekend work pushes past
