Job description

You turn marketing strategy into organized, on-time execution. You’ll juggle multiple campaigns, manage resources in Notion, and keep cross-functional teams focused on clear priorities, timelines, and results.

Key Responsibilities

1. Project Intake & Scoping – Collaborate with Marketing and Program teams to clarify objectives, success metrics, budgets, and initial scope before work begins.
2. Plan & Schedule – Build realistic work-back schedules in Notion, mapping tasks, owners, and dependencies; adjust as priorities shift.
3. Cross-Functional Coordination – Bring the right people in at the right moment, with the context they need to eliminate blockers and hit milestones.
4. Brief Ownership – Collect inputs, refine requirements, and secure stakeholder sign-off; ensure every team member works from a single, approved brief.
5. Execution Oversight – Guide activation phases (creative production, media trafficking, QA, launch) to keep output aligned with brief and brand standards.
6. Quality & Risk Management – Track deliverables against quality benchmarks, flag risks early, and drive course-corrections before deadlines slip.
7. Process Improvement – Document and iterate workflows; recommend automations, templates, or tooling that speed time-to-market.
8. Reporting – Compile lightweight performance updates from GA4, ad platforms, and automation tools so stakeholders see progress at a glance.
9. Knowledge Management – Maintain a single source of truth in Notion (dashboards, post-mortems, SOPs) to preserve institutional knowledge.

Must-Have Qualifications

• 3–5 years project or program management experience within a marketing team or agency.
• Proven ability to manage 5–10 concurrent projects without losing detail.
• Expert-level Notion skills (databases, formulas, advanced views, integrations).
• Strong written and verbal communication—concise updates, clear briefs, and stakeholder diplomacy.
• Systems thinker who documents processes and relentlessly improves them.
• Formal PM credentials (PMP, Scrum, or similar).
• Experience with Figma, n8n/Zapier automations, or basic SQL.
• Familiarity with charitable gaming, lotteries, or other regulated verticals.
• Light copy-editing skills to catch brand or compliance issues on the fly.
