Who you'll work with

• At Workhorse: our CTO, technical lead, developers, infrastructure lead, QA and design team
• At the client: their product, technical, support and content teams
• This role works closely with a team of other project managers and senior project managers, and reports to the Associate Director of Web Services

What you bring

• 5–8 years in digital product or project management, ideally at an agency
• You've owned a roadmap from the big picture down to the ticket
