Partner with subject matter experts and stakeholders ranging from executive leadership to front-line hourly employees to drive execution and manage several parallel initiatives from kickoff to full implementation. Track progress, flag risks early, and build reusable templates to streamline recurring processes while operating independently in a remote environment.

  • 5–7 years managing multiple projects simultaneously, from kickoff through full implementation
  • Proven experience partnering cross-functionally to drive projects forward without relying on formal authority
  • Experience in a multi-state, multi-unit organization with a high volume of hourly employees (e.g., hospitality, healthcare, or retail)
  • Demonstrated ability to operate independently and make sound judgment calls with minimal oversight
  • Highly organized, with strong attention to detail and follow-through
  • Comfortable working independently in a remote environment

  • Experience at a mid-sized company (2,000–5,000 employees)

  • Communicates effectively at every level, from executive leadership to front-line, hourly employees
  • Comfortable asking questions, contributing ideas, and adapting gracefully when a different approach is chosen
  • Exceptionally organized, with a strong track record of follow-through
