Critical Mass is hiring for an accomplished Senior Project Manager to lead high-impact digital campaigns in a fast-paced agency environment. As the primary Project Manager on a major account, you will drive strategy, own end-to-end delivery, and make immediate impact without a support net. This is an ideal role for a strategic thinker who thrives under pressure, leads independently, and is energized by managing complex projects.
You Will:
- Lead campaign initiatives independently managing execution and planning
- Manage end-to-end project delivery including scope, schedule, budget, resource allocation, reporting, and change management for fast-paced digital campaigns
- Drive strategic conversations with discipline leads (creative, design, marketing science, engineering) to set approach, develop roadmaps, and align on objectives and strategies
- Operate in a dynamic, multitasking environment requiring agility to move fast, adapt quickly, and maintain focus on driving goals even under high-pressure situations
- Develop and communicate project roadmaps and timelines while managing stakeholder expectations around scope, schedule, deliverables, and business outcomes
- Own financial stewardship including budget management, revenue forecasting, and resource optimization to maximize campaign ROI
- Organize and structure complex activities with meticulous attention to detail, ensuring seamless coordination across multiple workstreams and stakeholders
You Have:
- 4-6 years of agency and campaign management experience demonstrating proven capability to drive work forward independently, with preference for established Senior PM track record or strong multi-hat experience
- Mastery of core Project Management fundamentals including schedule development, scope management, financial management, resource planning, and change management
- Advanced proficiency with productivity and collaboration tools such as MS Office, Smartsheet, Keynote, Outlook, Jira, and Confluence
- Demonstrated experience managing client conversations around scope, schedule, budget, and strategic roadmaps; ability to build and maintain strong stakeholder relationships
- Strategic mindset as an approach setter, capable of establishing processes, methodologies, and frameworks rather than solely executing within existing structures
- Strong leadership and decision-making skills with excellent communication, facilitation, negotiation, and presentation abilities; demonstrated responsiveness to feedback
- Solutions-oriented leadership with the ability to lead by example, solve complex problems, and empower discipline leads to execute effectively
- Experience managing dynamic, fast-paced campaign environments with ability to multitask, prioritize effectively, and deliver quality results under pressure
