About The Position

Are you the person who loves collaborating and bringing order to chaos? Strategizing goals and seeing projects from start to finish may seem like a drag to most, but to you, it is nirvana.

You love working on multiple projects with cross-functional departments, holding leadership accountable, thriving in an autonomous environment, and coaching other project managers to do the same. If that sounds like you, GLORIOUS! You might be the Strategic Project Manager for the Office of the CEO (OOTC for short!) we are looking for! An ultimate control freak (in a good way) who loves managing strategic projects that support employee success and cultivate a unique culture, while also establishing rock-solid processes and policies.
