Job description

Our Senior Project Manager leads Noble's most complex, high-value and multi-service engagements and sets the bar for what great delivery looks like. You set the bar for how Project Managers independently own delivery of projects and ongoing retainers from start to finish and are accountable for scope, timeline, budget and quality. You are the model person clients and internal teams rely on to keep work moving and make sound calls when things change. You'll handle the work with the most moving parts and the highest stakes, improve how the team delivers, and mentor the PMs coming up behind you.

What You'll Do

• Lead complex engagements that span multiple service lines, phases, vendors or client stakeholders
• Design the delivery approach for each engagement, blending methodologies where the work calls for it
• Partner with account and service leads on scoping and estimates for new work and pitches
• Own budgets, forecasts and resourcing for large accounts and protect margin through smart tradeoffs
• Reframe client expectations when scope, timeline or budget no longer supports a good outcome
• Anticipate cross-project dependencies and risks and resolve them before they reach the client
• Raise the standard of QA, reporting and documentation on your accounts and share what works
• Mentor Coordinators, Junior PMs and PMs; review their plans and coach them through hard situations
• Spot recurring delivery problems and propose process or template improvements
• Pilot new AI-enabled workflows and help the team adopt the ones that work
• Build roadmaps that tie team activities to the hours needed to meet client goals and protect agency profitability
• Spot upsell and cross-sell opportunities and support account and client success leads in pursuing them
• Partner with client success, strategy and leadership to define vision, scope and requirements up front

Skills You'll Build

• Delivery methodology: Adapts and combines frameworks for complex, hybrid engagements and can explain the choice to clients.
• Planning, scope and risk: Manages risk across a portfolio of work, not just a single project.
• Resources and financials: Makes tradeoffs between scope, people and budget with margin and client value in view.
• Quality assurance: Defines what "done" means for complex deliverables and holds the team to it.
• Digital, web and AI fluency: Deep enough technical and marketing literacy to challenge estimates, spot integration risk and advise clients.
• Communication: Senior client presence; handles executive stakeholders and tough conversations with confidence and tact.

What Success Looks Like

• Your accounts are profitable, well-run and growing
• Clients trust you with strategic conversations, not just status
• The PMs you mentor become more independent and capable
• Process improvements you introduce are adopted across the team
• You're ready to take on people management

Qualifications

• 5–8 years of project management experience in a digital agency or marketing environment, including complex multi-service or enterprise engagements
• Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience
• Project Management Professional (PMP), Certified ScrumMaster (CSM), PMI-ACP or similar certification preferred
• Proven record managing large budgets, multiple concurrent projects and senior client stakeholders
• Strong working knowledge of web development processes and digital marketing fundamentals
• Experience mentoring or training other project managers
• Ability to travel and pass a company background check
• Approachable, collaborative and a confident presenter to clients and internal teams
• Basic HTML and CSS knowledge, enough to specify technical changes to development teams
