Manage project timelines, coordinate cross-departmental efforts, and ensure milestones are met for growth initiatives.
Bachelor’s degree and 3+ years in project coordination or operational project management, with proficiency in project tracking tools and strong communication skills.
The Growth Project Lead drives day-to-day execution for all growth initiatives, including greenfield launches, acquisition integrations, and market expansion projects. This role owns timelines, deadlines, coordination, milestone tracking, and ensuring tasks get completed across departments. The Project Lead reports directly to the Manager, Growth Programs, and works closely with Growth leadership and cross-functional teams to keep projects on schedule, reduce friction, and understand the business context behind the work. This is not a PMI-heavy role. It is a practical, organized, steady operator with enough strategic and business understanding to make good tradeoffs and sequencing decisions, without owning strategy itself. What You Do Project Execution & Timeline Ownership Build, manage, and maintain project timelines for integrations and greenfield locations. Track milestones and follow up with functional teams on outstanding items. Identify delays or gaps early and escalate when needed. Keep projects moving by pushing daily and weekly execution rhythms. Cross-Functional Coordination Work with Ops, HR, Finance, IT, Marketing, Fleet, Legal, and others to ensure each workstream completes tasks on time. Serve as the go-to project point of contact for internal teams and external partners (e.g., sellers, vendors). Provide leadership with clear updates on progress, blockers, and next steps. Keep communication tight and prevent team members from working in silos. Risk & Issue Management Spot risks early and bring them to leadership before they become problems. Track issues and drive resolution through follow-up and cross-functional alignment. Maintain simple logs for blockers and ownership. Project Administration & Organization Prepare agendas, notes, and action lists for project meetings. Keep project materials organized and accessible (this is NOT a documentation-heavy role—just clean organization). Support leadership with summaries, checklists, and basic coordination tools. Support for Integrations & Greenfields Ensure tasks from due diligence, onboarding, launch, and stabilization phases stay on schedule. Coordinate with the Program Manager to make sure new markets and acquisitions get what they need. Step into close gaps for project-specific items (not to fill generic ops gaps like the Manager, Growth Programs). What You Bring Bachelor’s degree required (Business, Operations, Engineering, or related field preferred). 3+ years in project coordination, operational project management, or multi-site execution roles. Strong timeline and task management capability. Comfortable pushing teams politely but firmly to hit deadlines. Good communicator who can simplify information for leadership. Solid operational instincts; able to work in ambiguous situations. Basic proficiency with project tracking tools, Gantt charts, and simple reporting. Key Attributes for Success Highly organized and dependable Steady, clear communicator who follows up consistently without being abrasive Thrives in fast-moving, ambiguous, and evolving environments Comfortable holding individuals and teams accountable Values clarity, deadlines, and predictable execution Works effectively with strong personalities across multiple departments #INDA1 Benefits and other cool stuff: · Medical, dental, vision, 401K · Paid Time Off · Weekly Pay · Internal Promotion opportunities · Company swag (Please note: benefits are not available for part time, temporary or contract roles) A1 Garage Door (and affiliate companies) provide equal employment opportunities (EEO) to all employees and applicants for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, genetics, sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression.
