  • The job will loosely break down into 60% project management and administrative support, 20% design research, and 20% quality assurance support.

  • This is a paid part-time contract position of 10 - 20 hours per week to start with room to increase.

What would my responsibilities be?

  • Oversee aspects of digital design projects from planning to implementation, to ensure they achieve successful outcomes on time and on budget.

  • Allocate and support team members for assigned projects. Tracking hours spent on the project.
