[8.25.2010 - we've filled this position]

We’re looking to add another project manager to our team:

A project manager on the dynamIt team will:

  • Have experience managing technical and creative projects, preferably in the web space.
  • Preferably have a technical background, though not necessary. (Coding experience is a plus)
  • Be responsible for planning, organizing and managing resources for successful deployment.
  • Participate in producing good project plans, schedules, sitemaps, wireframes and functional specifications that production teams can work from with ease.
  • Manage individual projects, but more often multiple projects within the context of long term relationships with clients.
  • Make sure all aspects of the project have balanced attention and are aligned with the scope, budget and timelines while maintaining a level of quality both dynamIt and client are happy with.
  • Have chronic OCD but somehow avoid medical diagnosis.
  • Have skill in negotiating win-win solutions between stakeholders and the project team.
  • Have desire to hold the team accountable for deliverables.
  • Coordinate and participate in Quality Assurance phases.
  • Experience is important, but personality is key. Our culture is what drives us, and we’re looking to build our team with someone who both fits and contributes to it.

The position is full time at our office in the Arena District in Columbus, Ohio.

If this description sounds like you and you are interested, please submit a resume along with portfolio to work@dynamit.us.
