We aren't easily impressed around here at The Hired Guns, that's for sure. But when it comes to this UX-centered design agency — with their incredible scope and their stellar handling of all things interactive — we have to admit we're pretty much blown away. They've asked us to find them a seasoned and all-knowing Project Manager, and we know it'll take a top-notch Gun to make the cut.
As project manager, you'll be monitoring the day-to-day activities of discipline leads and project teams, staying actively involved with the work and ensuring that things are moving along as planned. Expect to keep a grip on several projects at any given time, staying on top of schedules, budgets, assets, and overall project organization to ensure requirements and deliverables dates are clearly communicated, understood and executed upon.
There will be plenty of client interaction in this role, meaning you will also identify needs that the client may not recognize and manage their expectations accordingly. The agency will rely on you to consistently deliver the highest possible quality of service and solutions, soliciting and acting on client feedback, communicating and documenting the project's status and strategic recommendations to your clients, escalating and resolving issues quickly and skillfully.
Hired Gun Profile You've got several years of experience overseeing large-scale interactive projects, running with them all the way from discovery and design through technical development and implementation. Specifically, you've worked on the development of substantial websites and have a firm grasp of associated web development technologies and third-party applications and platforms. Time spent in an agency environment, working on both project management and online best practices, is a critical requirement for this role.
As far as the intangibles go, it's vital that you value the details even as you work to make the big picture a reality. Things move fast around here, so quick, analytical thinking is essential. You'll need to be an enthusiastic and capable problem solver, engaged at all levels of the project.
Inside Skinny If you've got any mobile or social media/community experience in your bag of tricks, we are prepared to be amazed. The same goes for e-commerce or big media site experience.
Net-Net As the key point of contact for both the client and the project team, you will play a pivotal role in the success of any major engagement. So bring your game face.
