Position Overview
Seeking a highly motivated and proactive Junior Project Manager who will report directly to the Technical Chief of Staff to a SVP.
This role is ideal for someone early in their project or program management career who wants high visibility, fast learning, and direct exposure to senior leadership, while also developing strong operational and administrative execution skills. Working as part of the SVP Office, you will support both day-to-day operational needs and cross-functional project initiatives, helping ensure the SVP and Chief of Staff can operate with maximum focus and effectiveness.
This is a hybrid role: part project coordination, part operational support, and part executive administrative support. The role includes meaningful, hands on administrative responsibilities, including scheduling, meeting coordination, and execution support, and will directly help offload work from both the Technical Chief of Staff and the SVP’s Executive Assistant. The ideal candidate understands that strong administrative execution is foundational to effective leadership, project delivery, and organizational impact.

Operational & Administrative Support (Core Responsibility)
This is a core and expected component of the role and a key enabler of the SVP Office’s effectiveness.

  • Manage or coordinate schedules, recurring meetings, and leadership check-ins, including hands-on calendar management across multiple stakeholders
  • Assist with meeting logistics, note-taking, and follow-up tracking
  • Support the Executive Assistant with operational and administrative tasks and serve as backup when needed, with the goal of reducing overload and ensuring seamless SVP Office operations
  • Maintain trackers, run reports, and provide day-to-day operational and administrative support
