• Track progress, flag potential bottlenecks, and proactively communicate updates to stakeholders
• Serve as a liaison between marketing, design, and sales teams to ensure alignment across initiatives

• Organize and manage creative assets in SharePoint and other file management systems
• Support ad hoc projects and requests from leadership, including PR and sales initiatives

What You Bring

• Bachelor’s degree in Marketing, Communications, Project Management, or a related field
• 2–5 years of experience in project coordination or marketing operations—preferably in a creative, marketing, or communications environment
• Strong organizational and communication skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities
• Familiarity with project management software (Smartsheet, Asana, Monday.com, or similar)
• Understanding of creative workflows, content production, and cross‑functional collaboration
• Comfortable communicating with C‑suite stakeholders and senior leaders
• A proactive mindset—someone who asks smart questions, anticipates needs, and keeps teams aligned

Why You’ll Love It Here

• Work closely with a collaborative in‑house creative team that values organization, curiosity, and follow‑through
• Be part of both internal and corporate initiatives that directly impact brand storytelling and employee engagement
• Gain exposure to event and campaign coordination (e.g., major brand and community events)
• Opportunity for long‑term growth—this contract is expected to extend beyond the initial term
