Project Manager (Volunteer)
Description:
Project Manager (Volunteer) *Note: The following is an opportunity for flexible, part-time, volunteer work. Please DO NOT APPLY if you are only looking for paid employment.* This is a remote-from-home position. Are you an experienced project manager who is passionate about making a difference? Are you excited about the opportunity to work with smart and talented individuals committed to producing great content in the public interest? Can you commit a minimum of 10 hours a week, working remotely on your own schedule with our far-flung, diverse team? Check out WhoWhatWhy.org. You’ll quickly see that we’re a credible solution to the raging debate over whether the news is “fake” or not,” with agenda-free research and publishing bracingly fresh analysis. Not left-wing, not right-wing, not consensus-seeking. We just want the truth — whatever it is. We have thought long and hard about what limits journalism’s ability to effect positive change in the public interest, and we see two factors that dominate the landscape: (1) Commercial entities overly concerned with meeting financial goals and filling “eyeball” quotas — while not straying from the rest of the pack, thereby ensuring a sameness and superficiality to the coverage. (2) Ideologically driven outfits catering to a specific mindset and not daring to reveal things that would upset their readers — or force them to reconsider their values. At WhoWhatWhy, we go at each story with an open mind, boundless curiosity, and a willingness to dig deep and ask hard questions — even when we’re told not to. Nothing is going to stand in our way when it comes to discovering what is going on beneath the surface, and why. Call it naive to believe such fearlessness possible, but we think it’s the essence of true journalism. And because we’re straight to the point, we make clear that we’re looking for volunteers — skilled volunteers. Yes, we’re a nonprofit that wasn’t funded by a zillionaire. Yes, we decline to accept corporate ads. Yes, we have a limited budget right now and simply don't have the ability to pay many people very much. However, we do have big ambitions, which is why we’re seeking an experienced project manager to work closely with our leadership team to manage projects from conception to completion. Responsibilities Manage large-scale projects from conception to completion Analyze all aspects of projects, identify stakeholders, and delegate tasks to team members Actively track and report on the status of all projects Ensure all documentation of project processes is being prepared and filed accordingly by the project team Assist in the recruitment and selection of prospective team members Qualifications 5+ years of experience in tracking and managing multiple projects MBA or related advance degree (preferred) PMP or project management certification required Be highly organized, motivated, and curious, and able to juggle — and prioritize — multiple projects simultaneously Have a solid grasp of — and commitment to — our mission Demonstrate a collaborative spirit and ability to thrive in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment Perks Channel your passion in a stimulating environment Learn the nuts and bolts of nonprofit operations in an up-and-coming organization Develop new skills and gain valuable experience that can enhance your professional trajectory Do amazing work on a flexible, part-time basis Have fun while you make a difference Expectations You will work remotely and on your own schedule, and we require a minimum commitment of 10-15 hours a week. (Though doing more is not discouraged!) Because our staff is spread throughout the world, we communicate mostly through Slack and email, and team members are requested to be highly responsive in a timely manner. If you possess a high level of self-motivation, work well independently but also have strong collaboration skills and enjoy the opportunity to partner with other leaders, and can commit quality time per week on a regular basis to help achieve team goals, we’d like to hear from you. To Apply We will not review applications that appear to be mass submissions. To apply, send your resume and a customized cover letter explaining why you're a good fit for this position. If there is no option to attach a cover letter, please send a cover letter to XXXX@whowhatwhy.org. You should confirm your understanding that this is, initially, a volunteer position. Thanks!
