Is This Role For You?
- You thrive in chaos-you actually enjoy bringing structure to complex, multi-stakeholder projects with competing deadlines
- You're obsessed with process optimization; you see inefficiency as a puzzle to solve, not a fact of life
- You have 3-5 years of marketing ops, project coordination, or program management experience with proven track record shipping campaigns
- You're equally comfortable with spreadsheets and people-you can wrangle data AND keep teams aligned without being annoying
- You care about details but don't lose sight of strategy; you understand WHY projects matter, not just that they need to ship
- You need creative ownership or personal project portfolio credit-this role is about enabling others' success, not your own
- You prefer remote-first or flexible location; this is fully on-site LA and requires physical team presence
- You're adverse to process documentation and standardization; if you work best without systems, this isn't it
