💡 We work with LouderThanTen to support project management at Cozy, including consultation on this hire, training, and ongoing support.

📚 Variety You’ll be involved with dozens of projects for a variety of clients in a range of industries, giving you exposure to myriad businesses and the people who run them.

🪴 Growth You’ll work alongside another project manager, with generous funding &attention paid to ongoing training. We’ll learn together, from inside and outside the org.

🙌 People We work hard to recruit &retain team members who are thoughtful, proactive, empathetic, and kind. This goes for the clients we choose to work with as well. You will love the people you work with.

💥 Impact As a member of a small team, you’ll have an outsized opportunity to have your voice heard and to impact the trajectory of the projects you work on, the companies we work for, and Cozy itself.

We’re an award-winning digital design shop based in South Park, San Diego. We build our user experience (UX) expertise into all aspects of digital design (UX &UI design, copywriting) and marketing (SEO, paid media, strategy, etc.)

We alleviate the anxiety our clients feel from being great at something but not having the in-house capability to look as good as they are. We’re not here to break new ground in the field of design or win trophies or blow minds. We instead use our talents to help the world feel just a bit more satisfied. More effective. More in control.

No one should worry because they don’t “know computers”(or “the internet” or “design” or “marketing”): if Sally sells the best seashells, she should sell the most seashells and she should stay focused on seashells. The world is not made better by having Sally learn computers. Blech.

Our clients are good at whatever they’re good at, but they’re stressed because they can’t do what we can (and btw, we can’t do what they can). The look on their faces when we remove that worry is everything. And the look on a work friend’s face when they power up… ooh that’s the stuff.

Our benefits package is thoughtfully designed to support our goal: that everyone who works here thinks “I’m happy to be here”.

We try to take care of people professionally and personally, because otherwise we can just go work for some nasty, typical company.

We’re small yet, and the list of benefits will grow with us, but already includes:

You see the big picture. You dominate the details.

🗣 Real talk: one of Cozy’s strengths is assembling a squad of expert partners and delivering uncomplicated, stress-relieving excellence. That means a big part of our job is proactively coordinating everyone, communicating with our client, and ensuring everyone knows “we’ve got this”. We never forget that we’re in a service industry.

That is all to say: this role is vital to the DNA of Cozy.
~~~~~~~

Responsible for managing the delivery of digital projects big and small, you’ll play a central role in ensuring everything runs smoothly from contact to launch.

You’ll use your expert communication skills to instruct and coordinate the team(s), establishing clarity and understanding to complete work on time and within budget. You’ll work closely with clients, putting in the effort to understand their needs and goals, pitching and presenting ideas, and facilitating discussions to ensure tip-top results that feel good for all parties.

Making the most of your digital background and knowledge of the relevant platforms, you’ll hold your own in technical conversations, identifying blockers and solutions as they arise to ensure the short and long-term success of projects.

As much as possible, you will reduce stress for everyone involved in your projects. You’re a team defender, a client champion, and a superb listener.

If we intend to deliver on our singular core value — empathy — we need to be experts at putting ourselves in our clients’ shoes. By drawing from a wide range of backgrounds, we have a superpowered shortcut to unlock this ability. A diverse, inclusive, open-minded Cozy team isn’t just morally imperative;it’s good business.

We are that team of committed individuals who demonstrate deep empathy and genuine curiosity. We value varied lived experiences, perspectives, backgrounds, and the different ways we all think, process, and present. We’re the kind of team that sees the person on the other side of the table and finds the ways we can improve their lives — even with something as dull as a wireframe.
