[Hiring] Marketing Senior Project Manager @American Bible Society

Role Description

The Senior Project Manager is an experienced individual contributor responsible for managing the end-to-end execution of marketing and fundraising projects — from intake through delivery — ensuring all assigned work is delivered on-quality, on-time, and on-budget. This role manages a diverse portfolio of concurrent projects ranging from straightforward single-deliverable requests to complex, multi-deliverable projects, and partners closely with Marketing Strategists and Program Management to keep work moving through established workflows.

This is a hands-on execution role — the Senior Project Manager drives work forward by keeping cross-functional teams aligned, proactively surfacing risks and blockers, and ensuring the day-to-day momentum that moves projects from kickoff to completion.

Key Responsibilities

• Project Intake & Setup:
  • Manage the intake-to-kickoff process for assigned projects — ensuring requests are properly evaluated, tiered, scoped, and estimated before work enters production.
  • Build project plans with defined tasks, milestones, dependencies, and work-back schedules within Monday.com.
  • Participate in kickoff meetings to align the cross-functional team on scope, timeline, deliverables, and review milestones.
  • Set up project architecture within Monday.com that aligns with established workflows and meets operational and financial tracking requirements.
• Project Execution & Delivery:
  • Manage the end-to-end execution of assigned projects, ensuring all deliverables move through established workflows with appropriate quality checkpoints, review gates, and approvals.
  • Proactively manage project schedules — tracking progress daily, identifying risks and delays early, and adjusting plans to keep work on track.
  • Track project budgets and hours, flagging scope creep and facilitating change order processes when scope adjustments are required.
  • Coordinate with Program Management to communicate resourcing needs, flag capacity constraints, and determine when external vendor support is required.
  • Manage vendor deliverables on assigned projects — procuring estimates, issuing purchase orders, tracking delivery, and reconciling invoices to ensure external work is on-scope and on-budget.
  • Report project status and percent complete to the Director, Marketing Operations & Program Management on a regular cadence, ensuring billbacks are completed.
• Cross-Functional Coordination:
  • Drive day-to-day project momentum by coordinating across creative, digital, content, web, and strategy teams to keep deliverables moving.
  • Facilitate project-level meetings including status check-ins, internal reviews, and routing sessions — capturing action items and following up to ensure accountability.
  • Ensure the review and routing process is followed on all assigned projects, coordinating the appropriate QA checkpoints based on deliverable type and tier.
  • Serve as the primary point of contact for day-to-day project questions, escalating risks and blockers to the Director, Marketing Operations & Program Management when resolution requires senior involvement.
• Documentation & Process Improvement:
  • Maintain accurate and up-to-date project documentation — including status reports, meeting notes, and deliverable trackers — to drive visibility and accountability.
  • Contribute to the development and maintenance of project templates, template estimates, and workflow documentation.
  • Participate in post-project retrospectives, capturing lessons learned and recommending process improvements.
  • Follow established workflows, routing flows, and quality standards, reinforcing operational discipline across all assigned projects.
