Creative Project Manager (Lume & Mando) Job at Mammoth Brands in New York
Mammoth Brands, New York, NY, United States
About Mammoth Brands
Mammoth Brands (formerly Harry’s Inc.) is the modern CPG company behind brands Harry’s, Flamingo, Lume, Mando, and Coterie. We’re building a new model—and home—brands, founders, and talent looking to solve unmet needs, improve peoples’ lives, and ultimately challenge the status quo. Our mission is to “Create Things People Like More.” Simply put: everything we do should be better than what already exists. If it’s not, we don’t do it. This guides everything we do, from developing the best product experiences, to making Mammoth Brands a great place to work, to exploring innovative ways to give back to our community.
We got our start in 2013 when our co-founders created Harry's. They built the brand differently—online first, prioritizing direct relationships with customers—and in the process learned they’d created something bigger: a playbook and platform that could help other brands grow and scale to their full potential, and a vision to reimagine consumer packaged goods. Today, Mammoth Brands is a growing portfolio of brands and the largest CPG company built in the last 20 years. Even as we grow, we take extra care to maintain the small, scrappy, entrepreneurial culture that helped to get us where we are today: to create a company that people like more, that better serves its customers, employees, and community. As a company, we’re also committed to making a positive impact and have donated over $20 million through our network of nonprofit partners to date.
About The Team
As the Creative Project Manager, you’ll be a key member of the Creative Operations Team. Our team is responsible for bringing the Lume and Mando brands to life across all channels physically and digitally (DTC, Retail, Brand Marketing, Acquisition, In‑Store Marketing, and Packaging to name a few). The team is at the frontlines of the Lume & Mando brands, which is a job we take seriously… but that doesn’t mean we take ourselves too seriously.
About The Role
The role will own all end‑to‑end project management for physical projects (packaging, in‑store marketing, collateral, etc.) and support photoshoots and some digital project management.
A Creative Project Manager is the glue that holds the Creative and Brand teams together and is the constant source of truth for the projects they manage. They need to be the ultimate team player: dedicated, hard‑working, and able to maintain and share a positive attitude. They ensure that projects run smoothly and are delivered on time and on brief, while making sure all team members have the support and information they need. The ideal candidate approaches each task, small or large, with the same attention to detail and follow‑through. They thrive off creating systems and optimizing processes, all to drive clarity and efficiency, not only on their direct team but with cross‑functional teams as well.
Note this is not a designer role, but an interest in design and/or the creative development process is a must.
What You’ll Accomplish
- Strengthen and push a high standard for project management across all physical projects from conception through execution.
- You’ll be the quarterback of a multifaceted creative team, owning workstreams that touch our various brand channels with brand / innovation managers and cross‑functional PMs.
- Manage and facilitate a variety of creative projects, with a focus on packaging and in‑store marketing projects.
- Develop timelines and ensure our team is on track to reach these milestones, while also adapting to pivots in timelines when they occur.
- Support Head of Creative Operations in production of photoshoots for physical projects.
- Celebrate our wins and help to adapt when we have setbacks.
- Work strategically with the internal Lume & Mando teams and cross‑functional stakeholders to optimize projects and processes.
- Independently act as the main point of contact for your creative workstreams, partnering closely with cross‑functional stakeholders such as brand teams, insights, retail, design, and more.
- Partner with project leads and brand managers to develop strong creative briefs grounded in insights and channel strategy.
- Effectively communicate within the team/org and negotiate timelines, decision making, and feedback.
- Act as the right‑hand person to our Head of Creative Operations, helping to define processes needed to effectively plan, resource, and manage our creative workstreams.
- Strengthen and maintain the creative operations building blocks and capabilities.
- Maintain organization across all project documents, shared drives (Google Drive, Box, Airtable, etc.), calendars, and meetings (scheduling, sending recaps, follow‑ups, etc.).
- If conflicts or issues arise within projects, identify solutions and contribute to their resolution in a timely manner, escalating to team leaders when needed.
- Efficiently use and maintain the processes, systems, and tools in place to support our Creative performers and their bandwidth.
- Anticipate both what’s happening today and what’s ahead. You will proactively sound the alarm on issues that may derail our process/timeline and team bandwidth.
You May Be a Fit If…
- You have 3‑5 years of experience as a project manager or creative operations manager at an agency or on an in‑house creative team.

- You take your work seriously, but not yourself.
