Why This Hire Matters

Media companies need to adapt to digital-first content consumption while maintaining quality and monetization. Project management is evolving from waterfall gatekeeping to agile facilitation — candidates stuck in traditional PMO methodologies may struggle in fast-moving tech environments.
