Responsibilities

- Executive Communication — Confidently represent the team's work directly to senior agency leadership and executives, communicating status, risks, and outcomes clearly and credibly.
- Team Encouragement & Coordination — Bring a positive, encouraging presence that helps colleagues across both teams stay aligned, motivated, and focused on shared deadlines. Work with sensitive data while maintaining confidentiality and following security guidelines. Perform other duties as assigned.
Minimum And Additional Requirements

- Internship or practicum experience in project management, business analysis, or program coordination is applicable.
- Delivery Coordination Experience — Demonstrated ability to coordinate diverse tasks and resources among multiple teams, drive work plans to completion, and report clearly on progress — the ability to lead delivery through influence rather than positional authority.

- Personality Fit — An encouraging, upbeat personality and a genuine enjoyment of driving people and projects toward deadlines.
- Project Management Tools — Experience with project or delivery coordination and experience with tools such as Asana (AlignED), along with comfort managing sprints, timelines, and status tracking.
