Reporting to the Director of Design, the Project Manager owns project intake, prioritization, timelines, and trafficking across cross-functional stakeholders. This includes supporting cross-functional innovation and packaging development projects, which often run in parallel, as well as broader marketing efforts including internal production planning for brand campaigns and launches, ensuring projects move smoothly from kickoff through asset delivery. This is a highly collaborative, systems-minded role focused on improving visibility, as well as driving alignment and shared understanding across teams. The Project Manager translates business priorities into actionable plans, manages timelines, gathers the right inputs upfront, and clearly communicates project progress to keep work on track. The Ideal Candidate You are an experienced project manager who can manage complex, cross-functional projects, understands creative work deeply, and balances structure with flexibility.

Own a shared project management tool as the central source of truth, managing licenses and seats while implementing workflows, blueprints, optimizations, and training to drive consistent adoption and visibility. Build, maintain, and support integrated project plans across creative, brand, and product marketing workstreams, proactively identifying risks, conflicts, or shifting priorities. Participate in cross-functional meetings, proactively surfacing challenges, clarifying dependencies, and driving resolution before issues impact timelines. Align design resources across teams by assessing capacity, sequencing work appropriately, and recommending external partners or additional support when needed. Support launch and commercialization efforts by coordinating needs across all stakeholders, ensuring cross-functional action items are tracked, aligned, and completed on time. Support design-related legal and finance processes by coordinating paperwork, tracking approvals, and ensuring required documentation is submitted accurately and on time in partnership with Legal, Finance, and Operations.
