• Build and maintain project timelines, milestones, and dependency maps across simultaneous workstreams.
• Serve as the central point of communication between editorial, product, engineering, design, and growth teams.
• Identify project risks early, develop mitigation plans, and escalate blockers to leadership when necessary.
• Create and maintain project documentation including briefs, status reports, decision logs, and post-mortems.
• Manage resource allocation across projects, ensuring teams are neither overloaded nor underutilized.
• Coordinate with external vendors, freelancers, and partners on deliverables and timelines.

• Excellent written and verbal communication, with the ability to distill complex projects into clear status updates.
• Proven ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously without dropping details.
• Comfort with fast-paced environments where requirements evolve and priorities shift.
