You Need These Skills

• This isn't your first rodeo - You can handle sometimes complex projects with authority. An understanding of agile/scrum will help you hit the ground running.
• You live in the zone - Prioritization is huge. You'll need the focus to manage your time and to-do list effectively. You have to be someone we can count on to deliver on time, every time.
• Your t's are always crossed - Obsessive attention to detail and over-the-top organization skills will help you to be successful in this role. We are not interested in double checking every line of every project schedule, or your emails for that matter.
• Multi-tasking mastery - You have the ability to juggle several clients and projects with ease. You can wear multiple hats without much hand-holding.
• You're in the know - You need not be a developer but you should have a comprehensive understanding of the steps necessary to complete a website development project and be able to support the development team each step of the way.
• The soft skills - Approachability and empathy are essential. You will be a point person for our team and need to be accessible and approachable.
• The zig and the zag - You'll need the ability to adapt to changing demands in a fast-paced environment. We are a small agile team, and thus require someone who can roll with changes and hit the gas when it's time to move.
• You talk the talk - You have a fundamental belief that there's no such thing as overcommunication. Communicate clearly, effectively and often.
