Project Manager

PROJECT MANAGER / PLANNING SECTION HEAD for Upgrade to see actual info

ROLE: Project Manager to oversee content planning and publishing for Jon Nicol and Upgrade to see actual info.

Upgrade to see actual info is a training and coaching business serving church worship leaders. We've got a small team, and we like to have fun. We need someone who also likes to have fun, BUT... can also whip us into shape. :)

Also, I'm not interested in hiring "the help." I'm interviewing both in North America and the Philippines for this permanent position. I want a person wants to be a valued part of our team, finds joy in helping us grow this business, and wants to grow with the company.

============
DESCRIPTION:
============
The "Planning Section Head" is the one that takes our creative ideas and projects, turns them into executable tasks, and then assigns those tasks (with deadlines) to appropriate teaUpgrade to see actual infombers.

The Planning Section Head then serves as the Project Manager, making sure timelines are met and obstacles are identified quickly.

For this position, you would need a strong project management ability — well-organized, flexible, with the ability to understand the big picture while making the details happen. You would also need to be able to work within a team setting, while also managing members of that team in various stages of the process.

You’d play a pivotal role in keeping multiple content projects moving – both special projects and ongoing. That would include email nurture campaigns, enrollment campaigns, overseeing special events (challenges/webinars), and the regular content publishing to multiple channels.

We need you to help us create and document efficient workflows and SOPs for all the related processes.

While you don't need to be a marketing expert, it would be helpful if you had some familiarity with marketing and other online tools like Keap/Infusionsoft, Trello/Asana, Facebook ads, Youtube, Google Analytics and Wordpress. If you don’t know these tools, you’ll need to be tech-savvy enough to get up to speed quickly on the basic use of these and our other marketing tools.

========================
SUMMARY OF KEY ROLES:
========================

=> Work with Jon to help him create the plan for every marketing campaign (including ongoing operations such as nurture sequences and content, as well as new projects like course launches).

=> Create tasks, assign tasks, communicate tasks to the team, and ensure follow-through by the team on those tasks.

=> Ensure on time, accurate campaign execution.

=> Prioritize & manage multiple projects simultaneously.

=> Get familiar with how all the the platforms and technology stacks we're using work together (Keap/Infusionsoft, WordPress / Beaver Builder / Learndash, Trello, Slack, Google Docs/Sheets/Forms, Deadline Funnel, Upgrade to see actual info, YouTube, FB ads, etc. )

=> Help optimize all projects and look for quicker, more efficient ways to get things done.

=> Support or act as the primary conduit between creative and publishing teams.

=> Run meetings as needed; be responsible for regular communication with teaUpgrade to see actual infombers.
Help Jon organize and manage his creative workload.

====================================
CHARACTERISTICS AND SKILL SETS NEEDED:
====================================

Here are things skills and characteristics that I see are critical to the success of this role. The right person would...

=> Understand both the big picture outcomes and goals of a project and the small details that need to happen to make the big picture a reality.

=> Have the ability to breakdown big ideas into executable tasks.

=> Be able to juggle lots of moving pieces while staying collected.

=> Love knowing that the show was able to go on because of all their behind-the-scenes work.

=> Live for getting things done, planning, and managing projects.

=> Be resourceful and can handle stress and tight deadlines.

=> Work very well with other people and can build rapport quickly with teaUpgrade to see actual infombers and guest content contributors.

=> Be willing and able to have difficult conversations quickly and professionally.

=> Have great attention to detail and brand quality.

=> Be a clear communicator.

=> Be organized, but be OK stepping into disorganization to clean it up.

=> Not be afraid of new challenges.

=> Adapt well to changes on-the-go.

=> Be a self-starter -- you need to be able to self-motivate since this is a ‘work from home’ position.

=> Is tech-savvy.

=> Not afraid to admit if they don't know something.

============
HOURS/PAY
============
At first, this will be about a 10 - 15 hour per week position. As you can see from the job description, there is far more work to be done than 10 - 15 hours will allow for.

But as Jon is freed up from managing the content publication process, he’ll be able to focus more on revenue generating activities. As revenue increases, this position will easily grow to more hours.

Pay: $10/hour; negotiable based on experience.

========================
Other Potential Roles Based on Skills / Experience
========================
Since we have a small team, candidates considered for this position might need to wear multiple hats. These different ‘hats’ would be dependent on your strengths, personality, additional skills, and prior experience.

These are some of the additional roles that could generate more hours if the right candidate possessed the skills and desire to take on one or more of these.

=> Content Writing and/or Copywriting

=> Graphic Design

=> Video Editing

=> Audio Editing

=> Executive/admin assistant

Please note, our primary focus is getting the Project Manager role filled. If the right candidate for that is not interested in any of these additional roles, it won’t affect our decision to hire him or her.

If you think this job description is a good summary of you, I’m looking forward to meeting with you!
