A Creative Project Manager serves as the central point of coordination between creative teams—such as designers and copywriters—and project stakeholders. They facilitate regular check-ins, clarify project objectives, manage timelines, and ensure all parties are aligned on deliverables. Collaboration often involves leading kickoff meetings, maintaining open communication channels, providing constructive feedback, and resolving any bottlenecks swiftly. By fostering a collaborative environment and balancing creative vision with client expectations, they help ensure projects are delivered on time and meet quality standards.

To thrive as a Creative Project Manager, you need strong organizational skills, a solid understanding of creative processes, and experience with project management methodologies, often supported by a relevant degree or certification (such as PMP or Agile). Familiarity with project management tools like Asana, Trello, or Monday.com, and creative software such as Adobe Creative Suite, is typically required. Exceptional communication, leadership, and problem-solving abilities help in managing cross-functional teams and client expectations. These skills ensure projects are delivered on time and within scope while maintaining high creative standards.

Job description

About Lume and Mando
Founded in 2017, Lume is a transformative personal care brand on a mission to normalize body odor beyond pits and provide people with outrageously effective solutions so they don't have to think twice about odor. We are pioneers of the whole body deodorant category, with a portfolio of odor-blocking products including anti-perspirants, aluminum-free deodorants, body washes, body creams, cleansing bars and laundry sprays. Lume products are OB/GYN developed, made with skin-safe ingredients that are gentle enough for the most sensitive parts and often referred to as "life-changing" by our customers. In late 2022, we launched a men's line called Mando, bringing our expertise to the men's personal care category. From whole body deodorants to body washes, our product offerings arm men with the confidence to show up as their best selves as they move about their busy day.
Lume and Mando are part of Mammoth Brands, the modern CPG company behind category-leading brands Harry's, Flamingo, Lume, Mando, and Coterie. Driven by a mission to "Create Things People Like More," the company is creating a new model-and home-for brands, founders, and talent looking to solve unmet needs, improve peoples' lives and ultimately change the status quo. Even as we grow, we take extra care to maintain the small, scrappy, entrepreneurial culture that helped to get us where we are today: a company that people like more, that better serves its customers, employees, and community.
