Project Manager

POSITION SUMMARY

This is a client-facing, relationship-driven role designed as a development path toward a Sales Executive position. The Project Manager is expected to build direct rapport with clients, deepen product and industry knowledge, and progressively take on greater responsibility for client relationships, with the clear goal of advancing into a sales role over time.
