The Impact You Will Make

You’ll be the operational backbone of Risepoint’s Digital Experience Platform (DXP) transformation — the person who keeps complex, multi-team programs on track and moving. While others set strategy and roadmap, you’ll be the connective tissue: owning project plans, driving cross-functional alignment, clearing blockers, and making sure nothing falls through the cracks. This role sits at the center of a high-visibility initiative that will reshape how Risepoint delivers digital experiences for 100+ university partners.

How You Will Bring Our Mission to Life

What You Will Do

• Own end-to-end project management for the DXP platform, including intake, scoping, scheduling, and delivery across SEO, Content, UX, and CRO workstreams

• Build and maintain project plans, milestone tracking, and status reporting for the DXP program, ensuring cross-functional teams are aligned and unblocked

• Partner closely with the DXP Marketing Ops Senior Manager and the Sr. Director DXP to coordinate readiness across partner launch waves and platform releases

• Facilitate cross-functional working sessions, status updates and other DXP meetings as needed, own agendas, action items, and follow-through

• Identify and resolve project risks, blockers, and dependencies proactively, escalating to senior management when needed

• Develop and optimize project workflows and processes within WorkFront

• Contribute to shared PMO standards and practices, ensuring consistency and visibility across the Digital Experience team

• Support management reporting needs by preparing program documentation, dashboards, and executive-ready updates on program status and milestones

• Leverage AI tools to accelerate the creation of program documentation, status reports, and analytical summaries — applying judgment on when and how to use AI effectively to improve output quality and team efficiency

What Success Looks Like

• DXP projects have clear timelines, responsibilities and deliverables, with clear accountability and alignment

• Cross-functional teams have high confidence in project status and know exactly where to go to get unblocked

• Partner launch waves are well-coordinated, with all teams providing inputs on schedule and no surprises at go-live

How Impact Will be Measured in the First Year

• On-time delivery rate across DXP program milestones and partner launch waves

• Clear communication and governance procedures well established

• Positive feedback from cross-functional stakeholders on process clarity, responsiveness, and communication quality
