Sr. Director, Project Management
About The Position
PureCars is on a mission to become automotive's reigning authority in AI-enabled data management and audience activation. As the industry leader in automotive marketing, we're trusted by the best dealers in North America — pairing a proprietary data platform and DMS connectivity with a team of high-touch digital strategy experts to turn data into growth. We're a certified digital provider for 20+ OEM programs, compliant with over 40 brands, and serve 65 of the top 100 dealer groups in North America. We partner with leading platforms — Google, Meta, Amazon, Spotify, Disney+, Microsoft, Oracle, and more — to give our dealers the widest range of advertising channels available. We're investing in world-class talent and AI-driven technology to get there, and we want people who want to build the future of automotive marketing with us. The Role: The Senior Director of Project Management owns the end-to-end go-to-market process for new products, features, integrations, and partnership initiatives across PureCars. You will drive cross-functional alignment across Product, Sales, Marketing, Operations, Account Management, Support, and Finance to ensure every launch moves smoothly from discovery through business readiness. You will drive the Product Readiness, Operational Readiness, and Business Readiness stages — ensuring each initiative has documented requirements, expectations, and timelines, and that nothing reaches customers before it's genuinely ready to demo, sell, install, support, and bill. You will represent Project Management in Senior Leadership forecasting and risk conversations, set expectations early when timelines slip, and act as the connective tissue between teams so that product launches, OEM programs, BETAs, pilots, and business initiatives land with minimal friction and maximum clarity for internal teams and customers alike.
