• Experience using project management tools such as Jira, Smartsheet, MS Project, Asana, or similar platforms
• Strong proficiency with Excel, PowerPoint, reporting dashboards, and executive-level updates
• Ability to manage multiple stakeholders, vendors, and cross-functional technical teams
• Strong communication skills with the ability to translate technical concepts into clear project plans and updates
• Must be comfortable working in a fast-paced, high-visibility environment with multiple concurrent initiatives

• PMP, Agile, Scrum, or related project management certifications

Additional Information
• This role requires a combination of both technical project management experience and broadcast/media industry exposure
• Candidates coming strictly from general IT PM backgrounds without media/broadcast experience will likely not be the right fit
