Project Manager
This isn’t a project management role for people who just “keep things moving.”
CULT Collective is looking for a Project Manager to join us—someone who understands that great project management isn’t about timelines and checklists alone, but about driving clarity, momentum, and outcomes across complex, fast-moving work.
We’re not an agency where PMs sit on the sidelines coordinating tasks. We’re a brand advisory firm where project management is the connective tissue between strategy, creative, and execution, ensuring the work not only gets done, but gets done right.
We work across brand, CX, and content to help businesses create and capture demand. That means projects are rarely linear, and success depends on someone who can bring structure to ambiguity, keep teams aligned, and ensure nothing slips through the cracks.
If that excites you, read on.
This role is for you if…
You’re past the “task tracker” phase and into the “owning outcomes” stage.
You know that great project management isn’t reactive. It’s proactive, communicative, and deeply embedded in how teams operate. You don’t just manage timelines, you anticipate risks, align people, and keep momentum strong.
You likely have:
- 3–6 years of experience in project management within an agency, consultancy, or similar environment
- Experience managing cross-functional teams across strategy, creative, and production
- Strong client-facing communication skills
- A proven ability to manage multiple projects, priorities, and stakeholders simultaneously
You’re highly organized.
You’re detail-oriented without losing sight of the bigger picture.
And you’re someone people trust to keep things on track, even when things get complicated.
