Communications Project Manager

Reporting to the Director of PR & Communications Director, the Communications Project Manager runs traffic across every PR & Communications silo, helping the department's various work streams speak to one another and arrive on time. You'll also help ensure that PR & Communications is properly embedded across FAR's various departments. You'll manage the intake process for communications requests, set and hold deadlines, route work through drafting, review, and approval, and maintain a departmental production calendar. You'll spot bottlenecks before they become problems and keep the PR & Communications Director informed about capacity. You'll coordinate with department leads across FAR who bring work to the team.

What you'll do:

• Manage intake for all communications requests across FAR
• Set and hold deadlines across drafting, review, and approval stages
• Maintain the department's production calendar
• Identify and resolve bottlenecks before they affect delivery
• Report capacity and status updates to the PR & Communications Director
• Coordinate with department leads across FAR bringing work into the pipeline

• Experience with project management, production management, or agency traffic
• Familiarity with project management software
• Persistence in following up without wearing people down

• Clear written communication
• Experience working with volunteer teams (a plus)
