Ecosystems Manager

We're seeking a highly organized professional who can serve as the backbone of our ecosystem infrastructure. This multifaceted role combines agile project management, web administration, and enterprise-wide data governance. You'll be the person who ensures our digital ecosystem runs smoothly – from sprint execution to website maintenance to keeping our data organized across every platform we use.

Data Operations & Systems Coordination (30%)

• Serve as the data steward for our entire digital ecosystem (Dropbox, HubSpot, DocuSign, Jira, and all connected platforms)
• Audit, organize, and maintain file structures, naming conventions, and data hygiene across all systems
• Establish and enforce organizational standards for data management and documentation
• Create and maintain data flow maps showing how information moves through our systems

• 3+ years of experience in operations, project management, or data governance roles
• Demonstrated ability to bring order to chaotic systems and maintain organizational standards
• Proven experience with Jira for project tracking and workflow management
• Strong hands-on experience with WordPress (theme customization, plugins, site maintenance)
• Working knowledge of Webflow (design implementation, CMS management, interactions)
• Experience working with product development teams through full sprint cycles
• Comfort navigating multiple enterprise platforms (file storage, CRM, document management systems)
• Exceptional organizational skills and attention to detail
• Excellent communication skills and ability to enforce standards diplomatically

• Experience with HubSpot CRM organization, custom properties, and workflow management

• Understanding of data privacy and compliance considerations

• You're energized by bringing order to chaos and creating sustainable systems
• You can see the big picture of how data flows through an organization while also caring about folder naming conventions
• You're equally comfortable diving into WordPress code, facilitating a sprint retrospective, and reorganizing a messy Dropbox structure
• You're curious about AI tools and how they can improve team workflows, web operations, and data management
• You take ownership of both strategic planning and tactical execution
• You can enforce standards without being rigid—balancing structure with team needs
• You genuinely enjoy being the person who knows where everything is and how everything connects

• Jira for sprint and project management
• WordPress and Webflow for website administration
• Dropbox for file organization and management
• HubSpot for CRM data hygiene and organization
• DocuSign and document management workflows
• Slack for team communication
• AI tools for enhanced productivity and data organization (we encourage experimentation)
• Google Workspace for documentation and collaboration

In this role, you'll be the operational glue that holds our digital infrastructure together. When someone can't find a file, you'll know where it is. When data is scattered, you'll consolidate it. When processes are unclear, you'll document them. You'll make it easier for everyone else to do their jobs by ensuring our systems are organized, accessible, and well-maintained.

This role is perfect for someone who thrives on variety, loves creating order from chaos, and wants to be the central nervous system of our operational ecosystem.
