Project Management

Behind every great initiative, you’ll find a project manager. They focus on planning, organizing, and leveraging people and resources to bring about an organizational priority. For example, a project manager on the technology team is responsible for managing the details of major technology development initiatives like our new front office operating system. Project management on the marketing team requires cross-functional management of multi-channel marketing campaigns, working with members of the insights, digital, and creative sub-groups.

Each team’s project managers have unique tasks, but all are strong problem-solvers and are really comfortable working with different people to get things done. Project managers are super organized, meet deadlines, know how to manage others around their assigned tasks, and are generally entrepreneurial self-starters.
