We’re looking for a proactive, highly organized Project Coordinator to support change management initiatives that improve how we work and commercialization processes which influence new product launch success. You’ll be an integral part of a highly collaborative cross‑functional team, manage timelines and deliverables, and maintain Asana setups so teams can run projects more consistently and efficiently. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys fast‑paced projects, communicating clearly with internal partners, and translating plans into smooth execution and measurable adoption.
Duties and Responsibilities
Maintain and update project plans, timelines and milestone trackers for multiple concurrent projects.
Support change‑management projects: create Asana projects including tasks and milestones, track task completion and project status, follow up with internal stakeholders to keep projects moving along, and report on program health.
Migrate and organize task data, maintain project classification and naming conventions, manage permissions, and work with integrations to streamline workflows.
Attend cross‑functional meetings (product, culinary, packaging, quality, operations, procurement, marketing) and capture clear meeting notes and action items.
Track project deliverables, assign owners, follow up on progress and escalate risks or delays as needed.
Prepare concise project status reports and dashboards for managers and stakeholders.
Support product launch activities including handoffs to operations, documentation for manufacturing, and coordination of pilot runs or validation testing.
Drive continuous improvement in project management processes, governance, and Asana best practices across teams.
What You’ll Bring
1-3 years of experience supporting projects in a stage‑gate process (food manufacturing and/or product development exposure preferred).
Hands‑on experience with Asana (or another modern PM tool) including setting up projects, templates, custom fields, dashboards and basic automations. Asana admin/implementation experience is a strong plus.
