About the role
- As the Analytics Project Manager, you are the operational heartbeat of the data team.
- You bridge the gap between our three cross-functional ad pods, our clients, and our technical analysts.
- Your mission is to ensure that every analytics project is scoped accurately, scheduled realistically, and communicated clearly.
- You are responsible for protecting the technical team’s deep-work time while providing clients and stakeholders with world-class visibility into project progress.
- Develop and manage detailed project timelines (workback schedules) for all major analytics initiatives, ensuring clients and internal teams are aligned on delivery dates.
- Act as the primary point of contact for client-side project managers regarding project status, timelines, and resource availability.
- Facilitate client kickoffs and weekly syncs.
- Draft Statements of Work (SOWs) and project briefs that clearly define scope, preventing "scope creep" and ensuring team alignment.
- High-level administration of Airtable and Linear.
Requirements
- 3–5 years of project management or account coordination experience with an emphasis on analytics.
- Experience in a media or advertising agency is a plus.
- You excel at managing expectations and can deliver difficult news (like a timeline shift) with professionalism and a solution-oriented mindset.
- You are a pro at starting from a launch date and mapping out every dependency and milestone required to get there.
- Proficiency with PM tools like Airtable and Linear (or equivalent tools like Jira or Asana).
- You can "speak data" enough to understand what an analyst does, but your real talent is "speaking client" to ensure they feel supported and informed.
Benefits
- Hybrid Work Model (1 Day in Office / Week)
- Winner of Waterstone Canada's Most Admired Corporate Cultures
