Digital Marketing Project Manager

Red 5 Interactive, Inc. Des Moines, Iowa

Do You Thrive in an Agency Environment?

If you've worked in a digital marketing agency, you know every day is different.

One morning you're leading a website kickoff meeting. After lunch you're reviewing a client's Google Ads performance, coordinating a website launch, helping develop a social media campaign, and responding to a handful of website update requests before wrapping up the day.

If that sounds exciting rather than overwhelming, we'd like to talk with you.

Red 5 Interactive is looking for an experienced Digital Marketing Project Manager who understands agency life and enjoys helping clients achieve measurable business results.

We're not looking for someone to simply keep a project schedule updated. We're looking for someone who can confidently guide clients, manage digital projects from concept to completion, and contribute to the digital marketing strategies that help our clients grow.
