Project Manager, Influencer Marketing (Technology) Canada At Viral Nation, we specialize in building social-first ecosystems for brands to connect with the modern consumer journey. Our integrated solutions align strategy, talent, media, and technology with culturally relevant creativity to scale the world’s fastest-growing digital brands. Viral Nation offers a fluid, creative, and growth-oriented environment that will support your ambitions to apply your talents in an open, collaborative, and fast-paced culture. Our ability to stay at the frontier of the industry has fuelled our success and will guide us in paving the path forward. While we continuously exceed our goals, we need your help – our success is only as great as our people. Robust performance leads to high expectations, and we must keep raising the bar The Project Manager is the operational backbone of integrated programs at Viral Nation. Embedded within the Client Services team, this role owns the "how" and "when" of program delivery
- translating strategy into execution across every center of excellence. This is not an administrative support role. Working in close partnership with Client Services leadership, the PM manages day-to-day execution while building the operational instincts, cross-functional fluency, and program management maturity that come with time in the role. Project Management / Workstream Ownership: Maintain a master program tracker as the single source of truth across all assigned accounts
- action items, resource links, work-back schedules, COE allocations, deliverables status, and project status, etc. Ensure consistency in project scope, establish key phases, define milestones, and set timelines — partnering with Client Services leadership to validate approach and calibrate expectations.
Proactively flag scope drift and compressed timelines before they create downstream risk, escalating to leadership when the path forward requires senior judgment. Support the VP of Client Services to monitor budget and hours and their burn, pacing, and utilization across active scopes. Pull exports, run calculations by staff and department, review month-over-month trends, and identify drivers
- surfacing findings to leadership for review and direction. Set-up and maintain project infrastructure
- internal kick-off documents, folder structure, Slack channels, Monday.com boards, campaign management trackers, timelines, and shared documentation. Resource Management: In partnership with the VP of Client Services, schedule and assign appropriate resources for project completion. Own utilization and team time-tracking workflows end to end — set resource allocations prior to campaign kickoff, conduct bi-weekly time audits and monthly program health audits, and chase COEs to correct misbilled time entries. Provide high-level burn and pacing summaries with insights and trends to Client Services leadership (VPs, Directors & ADs). Communicate risk early with supporting context so leadership can determine the path forward. Distribute post-sync recaps, add notes to channel canvas, and track follow-up actions to completion. Provide timely updates and documentation to internal teams — status, next steps, timeline shifts,
and budget implications. Hold weekly syncs with AS and ADs and schedule one-off sessions with creative, strategy and BI leads to stay aligned on progress, surface pain points, and flag optimization opportunities. Creative & Production Support: Collaborate with Producers to coordinate creative development logistics — schedule brainstorms, build production timelines, and integrate all creative and production milestones into the master WBS across pre-production, shoot, and post-production phases. Support content calendar production by conducting feasibility reviews against full program scope, resource availability, paid flight dates, and production runway — track calendar adherence and flag slippage early. This applies to all scoped deliverables, including influencers and studio-produced content. Collaborate with Producers to drive clarity and cohesion within the post-production review cycle. Track internal review timelines against master WBS and client timeliness, ensure clarity and efficiency in routing assets to correct client stakeholders (via collaboration and management of agency tools — i.e. Monday.com), communicate effectively with Producers to ensure asset versioning, recutting and repurposing aligns with feedback and timing, and elevate bottlenecks that risk the timeline. Own the handoff from production to posting and paid — collaborate with Producers to confirm assets are final, formatted, tagged, and delivered to the correct team with proper specs and flight dates. Evaluate workflows across your assigned accounts and identify opportunities for practical improvement
- escalating larger process changes to leadership for alignment. Support process standardization across accounts and pr
