Job Description
A Senior Project Manager at 10up is not just a task manager, but a strategic contributor to every project, and the driver for successful client delivery. Join a team of collaborative, cross-discipline professionals who have been pushing the boundaries of enterprise-level projects for over 12 years.
You’ll have ownership and input on a combination of innovative, challenging projects and ongoing support engagements—we believe in balanced and diverse workloads through dedicated resource management. We have a supportive Client Delivery structure, with established PM processes, while still allowing for autonomy.
As a leading digital agency, 10up’s client roster spans from innovative startups and impactful non-profits, to some of the biggest names in the industry, such as ESPN, Google, The New York Times Co., and The Nobel Prize Committee.
As a 10upper, you have options for flexible and alternative work schedules. Intentionally remote since day one, spanning six continents and 38+ countries, 10up fully embraces the benefits of distributed work.
What you will do:
- Act as the day-to-day Project Manager for 4 – 7 active projects; exhibiting senior-level ownership over all project scopes/plans, client meetings, written status updates, demos, risk management and iterative scope / expectation management. Consistently track and analyze project progress and budget burn, and work with group and project leadership to escalate concerns and/or risks, and mitigate appropriately
- Ensure superior quality deliverables by collaboratively engaging cross-discipline leadership, and enforcing rigorous QA processes and standards to provide end to end delivery and client satisfaction
- Lead discovery engagements (onsite and remotely) that expertly define cross-discipline project requirements and that demonstrate an expert understanding of underlying client business goals and objectives
- Consistently identify strategic opportunities to engage with the 10up Account Management Team and collaborate towards building strong, long-term client relationships
About you:
- You have experience delivering full scope CMS-based web projects for enterprise clients, ideally in an agency environment, and preferably with a practical understanding of the WordPress platform
- You can describe tangible examples of deescalating project risks by working with members of your team and leadership to develop collaborative solutions
- Your roles and responsibilities have been primarily client facing. You are often the main point of contact for client requests, escalations, comprehensive updates, and senior-level consultation
- You have a proven track record of deescalating project risks by working with members of your team and leadership to develop collaborative solutions
- You are an effective leader of cross-discipline project teams – across account strategy, experience design, engineering, QA and support – and are able to keep the team motivated and on task to deliver the best project outcomes
- You have excellent verbal and written English communication skills, both internally and externally
Benefits of interest:
- Mentorship from a dedicated Team Lead and Director of Client Delivery
- Multiple paid time off programs, including accrued PTO, parental leave, bereavement leave, and company holidays – including an all-company break from Christmas Eve to New Years Day
- Health, dental, and life insurance programs (available for United States team members)
- Retirement contribution programs (currently available in the U.S. and U.K.)
- $3,000 USD accrued annually in professional development budget for you to spend on conferences, training, or to buy back time for programs like independent study
- Flexible and alternate schedule programs – including options for 4-day work week (Monday-Thursday) configurations
- Global Company summits – opportunities to meet, socialize and learn with fellow 10uppers in person at remarkable destinations. An end-of-year all-hands bonus program, along with smaller opportunities for recognition throughout the year
