Overview of job
Overview
We are a team that believes in each other and want a new member on our team who we can trust and rely on. We don't expect you to know everything about digital, but we do expect you to want to find out and have the attitude of always wanting to learn and know more.
- You understand digital inside out - how digital platforms and apps are planned, designed and built. Better yet, you have been a creative or coder - or both, and want to grow into project management.
- You love the process of understanding a brief, working with experts to deliver the best solution, and executing it through meticulous planning, monitoring and control.
- You love to take on the challenge of delivering great work within the constraints of resource, time and budget.
- Have hands-on experience with Content Management systems including .NET and Open source platforms.
- You pay attention to the little things while considering the big picture - then this is the job for you.
Our account & project management team is at the heart of everything we do, working closely with our team of digital experts to deliver only the best of digital. In leading technical projects, you will drive projects from inception, requirements gathering, solutioning to delivery on time, within budget and to the highest quality level.
We value team players and so you must exhibit a strong affinity to our values of:
- Hunger
- Humility
- People Smarts
- Being Dependable
- Demonstrable Ownership
If this describes you, then we want you on our team as a Technical Project Manager.
Expect to be put through aptitude and attitude tests, cases studies and a series of interviews. We take hiring for our team seriously and expect you will have the determination to see this through with us. If you get hired and are not a good fit - you will find out soon enough as you will stick out like a sore thumb. But if you fit right in, you will relish every day at the office - working on new challenges and with a team you can trust.
