Project Manager

We are looking for someone to join OKW as a full-time Project Manager, with at least 10 years of experience (more experienced applicants should also apply). No two days will be the same for a Project Manager as they will be working on a slate of exciting projects and be responsible for coordinating all project efforts – administrative and technical – to bring them to life.

PMs should have the ability to communicate to colleagues, clients, and industry partners successfully. After all, they serve as the primary client and partner liaison and have to coordinate design efforts among their team, which can range in size from 2 to 8 people.

A strong candidate for this role should also have a reliable system for the fundamentals of project management, as the role manages budgets, schedules, and programs; project communications and documentation; and project team assignments.
