Project Manager - Remote

Company Overview

Tobin Jarrett Consulting is a consulting and coaching company based in Asheville, NC. Our mission is to help solopreneurs and small businesses to make more money and save time so they can focus on what matters most in their lives: growing their business, making a difference, spending time with their friends and family. We believe that by empowering small businesses to make a bigger impact through systems and automation, we are helping to create a better world. 

We fulfill this mission by working with businesses to design and implement strategic systems to streamline and automate many processes in their business, with a special marketing automation. 

The value we offer through our resources includes coaching, live events, training, pre-built campaign templates, blogs and newsletters.

Contractor Position Overview

This will be 10-15 hours per week to start but will likely expand to more hours, depending on various factors.

It is a 1099/contractor scenario with flexible hours, so you work when you want.

We are of course looking to get the most value for our HR cost. It is our custom to have our applicants start out by letting us know the minimum hourly rate they ask to be paid. If an applicant makes it far enough through the process that it becomes relevant, we may do some negotiating from there. 

Mission

The mission of the Project Manager is to help keep our team aligned and in action across our various projects, so that we meet deadlines internally, and for our client projects. Since we have numerous projects and several teammates across a number of timezones, it’s critical that the person for this role is able to make the leanest possible communications to ensure that tasks are being done on time, foresee when things are running behind, and preemptively mitigate failures to timely delivery.
