• A strong conceptual understanding of the Internet’s fundamental technologies (such as HTML, Flash, XML, web servers, streaming media, security, etc)
• Experience creating and managing budgets and schedules for interactive projects of varying size and scope, including budgets over $500,000
• The ability to manage multiple concurrent projects
• Experience coordinating highly technical personnel (such as programmers) and highly creative personnel (such as designers)
• Experience managing third-party vendors
• Strong communication skills and a client-pleasing work ethic
• A proven track record of serving as lead project manager on projects that relate to the above qualifications, and client references for those projects as needed
• Minimum of 5 years of experience and a bachelor’s degree strongly preferred
• And, of course, a team attitude, the desire to learn, and a good sense of humor
