Responsibilities

  • End-to-End Project Leadership

  • Strategic Planning: Develop comprehensive project plans defining scope, objectives, deliverables, timelines, and resource requirements.

  • Cross-Functional Alignment: Lead projects for diverse teams (Creative, Events, Content, Digital Marketing, and external agencies) to ensure milestone alignment and seamless execution.

  • Budget & Profitability: Monitor project budgets and resource allocations to ensure profitability and financial health.

  • Performance Tracking: Use data-driven methods and tools, like Asana, to monitor project progress, optimize workflows, and provide insights into everything from dept-wide plans to team resourcing to individual workloads.

  • Creative Production & Digital Execution

    • Oversee creative production timelines (video, graphics, assets), managing the process from brief and concept through to final approval.
    • Establish cohesive digital workflows to ensure the successful integration of all program channels and touchpoints, maximizing the impact of multichannel campaigns and ongoing audience engagement.
  • Governance & PMO Excellence

    • Risk Mitigation: Identify and document project risks; proactively develop mitigation plans and escalate blockers to PMO leadership.
    • Process Optimization: Actively contribute to the development of PMO workflows, templates, and agency best practices.
    • Quality & Brand Standards: Ensure all deliverables adhere to brand guidelines, accessibility requirements, and internal quality benchmarks.
    • Continuous Improvement: Lead "post-mortem" retrospectives to capture lessons learned and apply insights to future project cycles.
  • Asana Platform Governance

    • Serve as the divisional administrator for Asana; manage workspace architecture, user permissions/onboarding, and build standardized project templates for recurring marketing workflows.
    • Workflow Automation: Design and maintain Asana rules, forms, and tech stack integrations (e.g., Slack, Google Drive) to reduce manual work and streamline cross-functional handoffs.
  • Team Enablement

    • Establish Asana best-practice documentation ("Team Playbook") and act as the internal subject matter expert to onboard and train the team on new features.
  • Asana Documentation Management

    • Author and maintain critical process documentation within Asana, including the "Marketer's Guide," "PMO's Guide," and "Agency Team's Guide," to ensure cross-functional alignment and standardized digital workflows.

Qualifications

  • Experience: 5+ years of project management experience, specifically focusing on marketing campaigns, events, and creative production. Agency experience is highly preferred.

  • PMP or equivalent certification is a significant plus.

  • Technical Proficiency: Advanced/Expert-level knowledge of Asana, including experience acting as a platform or team administrator (building templates, rules, reporting, and portfolios); familiarity with CMS platforms, digital asset management and creative production workflows.

  • Global Coordination: Experience managing international or remote teams across various time zones.
