Take a More Active Role in How Work Gets Done

If you’ve organized schedules, followed up on requests, or helped a team finish something on time, you already know that progress depends on clear communication and consistent attention.

We’re hiring an Assistant Project Manager in Dayton to support business projects from preparation through completion. Working alongside the Project Manager, you’ll help coordinate people, information, and deadlines while taking responsibility for assigned project activities.

• Highlight potential delays and support final checks, handovers, and closeout documentation.

You’ll also help communicate approved changes so everyone involved understands the current plan and their next steps.

Bring Practical Experience and a Willingness to Learn

Experience in project support, operations, logistics, administration, events, or team coordination is helpful. Skills developed in Dayton’s manufacturing, service, and business-support workplaces can transfer well, particularly if you’ve handled schedules, maintained records, or coordinated requests.

You should bring:

• Clear communication and professional follow-through.
• Good organization across several tasks and deadlines.
• Attention to accuracy when preparing documents and updates.
• Confidence using email, spreadsheets, calendars, and workplace tools.
• Initiative to flag problems and judgment about when to seek support.
