About the Role

This is an excellent opportunity for anyone who wants to join a fun, international team that is working on the cutting edge of privacy and data protection. The projects you'll be working on will primarily be privacy and data security compliance projects, and your team members will largely be attorneys and IT security professionals. Above all, this role demands excellent writing and note taking skills, organizational abilities, attention to detail, willingness to give and get feedback, and communication skills.

This is a particularly good opportunity for someone with experience as an executive or administrative assistant who is looking to transition into project management. It may also be interesting to someone with a background in IT support or coordination. The position also comes with benefits described below.

We have always been and will continue to be a remote team. We offer our team members a comfortable, flexible work life. We collaborate closely (you won't feel like you're working in isolation) and you'll learn from our experienced attorneys, project managers, and IT security auditors, but in a much more collaborative, less hierarchical, and friendly environment than your typical law firm. We do top-notch work for interesting clients, yet we pride ourselves on recognizing that our team members also have lives outside of work.

If you love working with new technology, interesting clients and team members, you want to work in a fast-paced and remote environment, and you're interested in tech, cybersecurity, or privacy, this may be the perfect job for you.

Key Tasks and Responsibilities

• Executing project plans within the constraints of a scope, schedule, and budget
• Maintaining the daily record keeping needed to keep the project plans up to date
