Project Manager

April 3, 2019 9:15 AM

Want to work with progressive nonprofits and mission-driven organizations alongside a solid crew of smart people? Then ask yourself…

• When you are working with a group, do you find yourself organizing tasks and helping to keep everyone's ducks in a row?


• Do you love a good "to do" list, agenda, flowchart, or diagram?


• Are you and your calendar very, very close?


• Do you like finding the most efficient way to get something done?


• At the end of a conversation about an idea or project, do you feel the urge to recap the plan or talk about what comes next?


• In short, are you one of the more organized people in the room?

If you answered "yes" to a few of these questions, we'd love to talk to you.

Advomatic is hiring a project manager to work closely with our team to manage web development and marketing projects. We don't care if you've ever officially been called a Project Manager. We just care that you act like a project manager. We'll adjust the title to match your experience level.

Skills and Experience

• Over three years of experience in a non-profit or client services organization coordinating projects, campaigns, or other initiatives.

• Ability to read the "feeling in the room," to glean personality types and communication styles and to adjust or intervene to make things go smoothly.


• Enjoy working collaboratively with other people, to listen deeply, leave room for their input, and adjust to their needs.


• Ability to see red flags and vague or problematic parts of a plan and figure out how to make them go away, or not be there in the first place.


• Incredible attention to detail. When applying please start your cover letter with “Dear Advoteam,"


• Strong self-management skills - you almost never drop the ball, and love making lists.


• Amazing organizational and time management skills, and an ability to do several things at once.

• Experience working with databases or content management systems like Drupal or Wordpress. Familiarity with basic terminology and website design/build processes.
