Seeks a Freelance Project Manager

Remote: 10-20 hours / week

This role is for someone with stellar client communication, Marie Kondo-level project management skills, experience in championing design deliverables, a pro-active communication style, and of course, an internal drive to help people!

Direct Report:

  • Creative Operations Manager

What You'll Do:

  • Client Communication.

    • On-Boarding: Responding to project inquiries in a timely manner, support putting together client proposals & sales decks, and quick & efficient client (and team) responses throughout a project. Be the ultimate MVP of getting assets and feedback on time!

    • Off-Boarding: make sure the client has all deliverables as the project comes to a close and that they're happy! 🌻

  • Project management. Create & manage Notion dashboards, Google Drive folders, and forms for clients to fill out. Stay on top of project scope, timeline, and budget.

  • Collaborate with our Studio team and contractors (designers, developers, social, copywriters, photo/video). Communicate with them via Slack/email/Notion. Make sure everyone has what they need to do what they do best whether that's assets, access to files, etc ✨

  • Give our studio workflow a glow up. 💌 We're envisioning Inbox ZERO 🌈, streamlined Notion tasks so everyone knows what's what, and a clear calendar on revenue goals.

  • Bring good vibes, positivity, and enthusiasm to projects. Be the cheerleader for both the Studio team and the client. After all, it's a collaboration 🤝

  • Attend team & client calls:

    • 1x weekly Studio team sync

    • Available as needed for client syncs – schedules can vary according to client availability and time zones.

  • Directly report to our Creative Operations Manager

Requirements:

  • Must LOVE project management and organization. You will know exactly what needs to be done, when, and by whom. You understand how to push but not overwhelm.

  • You tend to be 4 or 5 on the Helpfulness Pyramid.

  • Incredible interpersonal skills: members of the team interface with creatives and clients from all walks of life directly, and should have integrity, empathy, and understanding in working with them.

  • Organizational and file management skills. 📁 We need to be able to jump into whatever project you're working on and be able to find things easily. We use Notion!

  • Comfortable with little direction. ➡️ We want you to take it and go! While in the beginning there will be some training on our workflow, we're looking for someone that is confident and self-motivated, but knows when it’s more efficient to ask for help.

  • You 💖 Feedback. We work iteratively and believe in immediate feedback. You're someone that has a high EQ and implements feedback quickly or will communicate succinctly what is blocking you. Vice versa. We ❤️ feedback and encourage you to suss out any inefficiencies and suggest improvements to our workflow.

  • Must be US-based (sorry!!). Client communcation and meetings typically happen across PST/EST time zones.

Experience with:

  • Project Management with Notion

  • Communicating via Discord

  • Screen recording tools like CloudApp and Loom

  • Working on a variety of projects like branding, web, social media content, packaging, and content production.

Who this isn’t for:

Someone that is used to working somewhere they get a lot of support and structure. Think of us more like a collective of experienced freelancers that get things done. If you’ve never worked on your own, haven’t had experience managing a lot of tasks, and are not sure how to prioritize projects — this probably isn’t for you.

However, if you thrive on independence and execution, care about creating an effervescent, smooth sailing, creative studio… we would love to get to know you more!
