Primary duties are initial phone conversations, proposal drafts and copy edits, tracking current workload and deadlines, checking in with current clients about logistics and payment status, and helping us maintain and add to our own website with updates, news, and social media outreach. If necessary, PM will devote a small amount of time trailing job boards and looking for new work. Ideal candidate will have a experience and interest in the web and graphic design, and a mind for business development and strategizing our own growth and outreach. We want our you to grow along with us, increasing hours and responsibilities as we take on more work. Super Ideal Amazing candidate will have a background in design and/or the web, with PR and Identity & Branding experience.

Location and Access: We are based in NYC but have worked with a remotely based PM before. Local applicants preferred. We ask for general availability throughout the work-week, though we realize the nature of a part time position is that we can only ask for so many hours of work. It's our hope that the ideal candidate will be able to 'check in' via email at least once every few hours, as necessary.PM will come down to our offices once in a while for meetings and check-ins but primarily work off-site. We work hard and value downtime as well. We do not ask for work on weekends or holidays.
