Job description

THE PLACE

We have an engaged and diverse team of about 45 colleagues dedicated to collaboration and producing great work. We’re project-focused and deadline-driven – so some days may be longer than others. But even when it’s busy, we make time for team activities and encourage participation (whether virtual or in person). We are a dog-friendly workplace, and sometimes a few of them are in the studio. Some of them are big, so we hope you are okay with that.

THE ROLE

As a project manager at Works Design, you are a key member of the account team, blending the higher-level strategy of account direction with the detailed problem-solving of day-to-day project management. Managing the conflict between these two parts of your job will be key to your success.

WHAT ARE YOUR KEY ACCOUNTABILITIES?

• Preparing quotes, briefs, estimates, proposals, schedules and invoices
• Participating in client and internal meetings and presentations
• Delegating tasks to a team of design, web and print production specialists
• Obtaining approvals and sign-offs both internally and from clients
• Communicating project objectives and scope to design, development and production teams
• Facilitating decisions and encouraging cooperation in a fast-paced environment

DO YOU NEED SPECIAL EDUCATION OR EXPERIENCE?

• Minimum three years managing online and print projects in a busy agency environment
• Must have experience with projects in an agency setting across our main practice areas (stakeholder communications, brand and collateral development)

WHAT QUALITIES DO YOU NEED TO DO THIS JOB WELL?

• Proficiency in organizing and orchestrating complex projects
• Ability to juggle multiple (and competing) clients, projects and priorities
• Good interpersonal communication skills and a team-player attitude
• Excellent problem-solving and time-management skills
• A sense of humour, collegial approach and passion for client service

ARE THERE ADDITIONAL EXPECTATIONS?

Our workload fluctuates throughout the year, and sometimes we are very busy. Project managers must be available during relevant stages of all jobs. Some late nights are to be expected. While our current working environment is considered “flexible,” this role may require limited days in the office for training purposes.

All Works Design colleagues must adhere to our policies and procedures as well as embody the company’s values: principled , curious , inclusive , perspective-taking and fun!

TOTAL COMPENSATION

• Base salary: $70,000 – $90,000
• Vacation and PTO days
• Comprehensive health benefits
• Learning and development fund
• Flexible work environment
• Seasonal office closures (in addition to statutory holidays)
• Quarterly Fun Squad social events throughout the year

We appreciate all interest but cannot respond to all applicants. Only qualified candidates will be contacted.
