priorities and guide projects smoothly from start to finish. In this role,
you’ll act as the vital link between our design and development teams and our
clients making sure deliverables align with expectations and communication stays

for someone adaptable, comfortable in a fast-paced, multi-project environment,

scope, communication, and delivery ensuring a smooth process from start
to finish.

review responsibilities with the design lead, but remain fully accountable

collaborate closely with the design lead, while staying in charge
of external communication and overall process clarity.

Communication & Delivery

ensuring alignment on priorities, scope, and deliverables at every stage.
* Support delivery by:

team leads
* Running regular check-ins to keep the team aligned and unblocked.
* Leading client-facing meetings, demos, and discovery sessions — including
preparation and follow-ups.

design and development teams.

* Track project performance and timelines through internal documentation
(Notion, Google Sheets) and weekly workload reports.

and quality standards.
