• End-to-End Project Ownership: Manage a portfolio of concurrent projects, overseeing all project deliverables, proactively identifying and mitigating risks, and building and tracking timelines to ensure on-time, in-scope, and under-budget delivery for all client implementations.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration & Alignment: Serve as the primary project escalation point of contact and ensure seamless alignment across all internal and external teams. Collaborate closely with Sales, Engineering, Support, and Customer Success Managers to guarantee a smooth and successful customer experience from kick-off to go-live, and contribute to our partner ecosystem by enabling and co-delivering with implementation partners.
• Operational Scale & Autonomy: Drive continuous improvement by enhancing project management and delivery operations processes, contributing to best practices for scale, and operating effectively and independently in a fast-paced, often ambiguous environment with minimal oversight.

• Demonstrated escalation management skills and comfort navigating difficult conversations with grace, whether resetting timelines, managing scope, or addressing misaligned expectations.
• Bias toward action and comfort operating in fast-paced, ambiguous environments with minimal oversight.
• Self-starter mentality you can learn new systems quickly, identify what needs to be done, and drive outcomes without constant supervision.

• Experience in influencer marketing, affiliate marketing, or performance marketing industries.
• Familiarity with ecommerce platforms and their integration patterns.
