Project Manager (OTE $64,000/year USD), Sparkrock

Are you a high-performing professional with a growth mindset? Do you want to work for a best-in-class, 100% remote organization with the brightest talent from around the world?

Sparkrock helps social benefit organizations like nonprofits, school boards, and government agencies to reach their greatest potential using technology. We help to make these mission-driven organizations more efficient, freeing up their time and resources to focus on the good they want to achieve. Every day, nearly 45,000 people use our ERP & CRM products to make the world a better place, and we’re looking to double our impact in the next three years.

We are seeking a Project Manager who isn’t afraid of leaving the prescriptive elements of their PMP behind them. We deliver based on what customers need, not based on the specifics of a methodology. In some areas, that’s heresy! We carve out the best of the software development lifecycle, the project lifecycle, continuous improvement, and business analysis to create a fast-paced, customer-focused, and always improving process. We haven’t got it nailed down, though. We never will…that’s the point of continuous improvement.

If you are highly motivated and love building and growing, this is the place for you.

Responsibilities

• Using currently documented processes to figure out a way forward and then…make it better.
• Help people implement software in a fun and exploratory way yet still meets every aspect of the SOW.
• Cloud-based ERP implementation.
• Do all the necessary housekeeping tasks…budgeting, forecasting, status report, etc.
