United States onlyEnvisionit, an award-winning digital marketing agency based in Chicago, is seeking an experienced Senior-level Project Manager to join our growing team focused on a few of our performance media accounts in the consumer services and fintech categories. You will work on a combination of lead generation and digital alongside a tight-knit bunch of seriously talented people who genuinely like each other, have fun and work hard to achieve collective success. We have a beautiful office overlooking Millennium Park and Lake Michigan that serves as the perfect setting for collaboration in our hybrid environment (likely 1-2 days in office each week). Please also note we are prioritizing local candidates for this specific need.
POV for this role: "I love my job because I am passionate about making it easy for my teams to deliver on what we promised to clients when they chose Envisionit as their partner. I bring the experience needed to lead multiple integrated marketing projects across multiple clients and support estimating new work simultaneously without missing a beat. I am equal parts box-checker and critical thinker, but I also serve as a knowledgeable resource for the team when it comes to the project requirements and goals. I give our ADs and cross-functional teams permission not to worry about our backstage performance, regardless of the discipline involved or deliverable type were working on.
I am a stickler for ensuring our core process is followed, because I know that it allows us to do our best work. Internally I am the orchestrator who ensures the team always knows what they need to do, when its due and what it's for, and I manage the budgets for all my accounts like a hawk. I can confidently grab the mic in client conversations about project status, budget, timing, dependencies and scoping needs."
