OUR CORE VALUES:

We live and hire by our core values. Here’s what that means for this role.

Show Up

You’re present, prepared, and dependable — clients and teammates know they can count on you.

What it looks like in practice

• You come prepared to meetings and calls with context, notes, and next steps already in mind.
• You follow through on tasks, deadlines, and commitments without needing reminders.
• You stay visible and communicative internally, keeping project statuses, documentation, and systems up to date.
• You respond promptly to client and team communication, especially when timing matters.
• You bring a calm, steady presence to fast-moving projects and high-pressure moments.
• You help motivate teammates, solve problems before they occur, and regularly offer solutions.

Showing up means people can count on you: clients and teammates alike.

Say the Thing

You communicate clearly and honestly, internally and externally, to keep projects healthy and expectations aligned.

What it looks like in practice

• You ask clarifying questions early to prevent confusion or misalignment later.
• You communicate timelines, deliverables, and constraints clearly — even when the answer is uncomfortable.
• You flag risks, delays, or missing information as soon as you see them instead of hoping they resolve themselves.
• You speak up internally when priorities, scope, or expectations feel unclear or unrealistic.
• You give direct, respectful feedback that helps teammates and clients move forward with confidence.

“Saying the thing” builds trust — and trust is what keeps projects running smoothly and relationships strong.

Be the Expert

You understand our processes and can confidently guide clients and teammates through them.

What it looks like in practice

• You have a deep understanding of our project workflows, tools, and timelines and can explain them clearly to clients and internal teams.
• You anticipate questions or friction points in a project and proactively provide clarity before issues arise.
• You guide clients through onboarding, deliverables, and expectations with confidence and consistency.
• You ensure teammates have the full context they need to execute — not just tasks, but the why behind them.
• You maintain organized, accurate project documentation that others can easily rely on.
• You help uphold and reinforce our processes by modeling best practices in the project management system.
• You communicate changes, priorities, and next steps in a way that keeps everyone aligned and moving forward.

Being the expert means being prepared, detail-oriented, and steady — bringing clarity and confidence to every project you touch.

Find a Way

When challenges arise, you stay flexible, resourceful, and focused on solutions.

What it looks like in practice

• You adapt quickly when timelines shift, priorities change, or new information comes in.
• You troubleshoot project roadblocks before they become bigger issues, looping in the right people at the right time.
• You find solutions when details are missing, assets are late, or plans don’t go as expected.
• You balance multiple moving pieces without losing momentum or attention to detail.
• You take ownership of problems instead of waiting for direction, proposing next steps and alternatives.
• You remain calm and solutions-oriented under pressure, helping the team stay focused and confident.

Finding a way means you don’t stay stuck — you keep projects moving forward, even when the path changes.
