The Project Manager drives execution across the Tech team - turning validated problems into delivered solutions, on time and with clear ownership. This role manages the full delivery lifecycle across complex, multi-stakeholder initiatives, from structured backlog to release, while staying closely connected to the problem discovery phase to ensure what gets built always traces back to real guest and ambassador need. The role includes budget oversight and cross-functional coordination, and reports directly to the Head of Product.
