Feeling uneasy that you haven’t ticked every box? That’s okay, we’ve felt that way too. Studies have shown women and minorities are less likely to apply unless they meet all qualifications. We encourage you to break the status quo and apply to roles that would make you excited to come to work every day.

We are a results-oriented culture and believe job descriptions are a thing of the past. We prescribe to 90 day plans and believe that good days lead to good weeks, which lead to good months. This serves as a preview of the 90 day plan you will receive if you were to be hired as a Project Manager at Flock Safety. 

The First 30 Days

• Acquire knowledge of Flock’s business - products, processes, teams, etc.

• Meet with key internal stakeholders and establish strong cross-functional relationships

• Assess current PMO ways-of-working and make recommendations for improvements

• Lead Cx projects with little to no oversight from Manager

The First 60 Days 

• You should be managing a book of customers independently and providing excellent customer service, while adhering to Commercial PMO’s guiding principles (e.g., communication milestones)

• You have a strong network of cross-functional partners to lean on and have proven yourself as a strong contributor to the PMO team

90 Days & Beyond 

• At the end of 90 Days, you are rolling - you have successfully completed a number of projects (size and scope dependent on deal flow), built your network, and are comfortable with PMO’s suite of systems, tools, data, etc.

• You are fully in control of your book of business - highly communicative, delivering best-in-class customer service, able to independently solve complex cross-functional problems, and driving overall success for Commercial PMO
