Digital Project Manager – Candidate Pool

Our Mission:

“To Launch Brands and People”

Why Avalaunch?

There’s a reason why “Launch People” is in our mission. We believe that a job is more than just a job. It’s where you spend over one-third of your waking hours. It becomes a key part of your life and either fulfills and inspires you or exhausts and empties you. Our vision is to create an environment where you can launch. A place where you feel excited, empowered and motivated to achieve dreams and goals. There’s nothing that excites our ownership more than watching employees feel inspired to launch and create the life they’ve always wanted. 

With nearly two decades of experience, we’ve learned that the way we help our employees launch is through a set of core values:

Creating Believers – We earn trust by focusing on results that matter. 

Be Integrity – We keep our word or make right the times when we can’t.

Project Positivity – We spread happiness and optimism in all that we do. 

Be Proactive – We create our environment rather than respond to it. 

Deliver Distinguished Service – We do what we say we’re going to do with that “white glove” touch. 

Thrive on Communication – We communicate candidly, regularly and precisely. 

Trust the Team – We move at the speed up trust and bring the best talent together. 

Initiate Innovation – We constantly experiment and test to reach success. 

Enjoy the Ride – We believe that fun should be a part of everything we do and we have a whole lot of it!

But don’t just take our word for it. We strongly encourage all candidates to review our glass door reviews and look at the “best places to work” awards we’ve won. You’ll find employee quotes like:

• “Not Exaggerating – One of the nation’s best agencies”

• “Very solid company to work for”

• “Great place to work”

• “Innovative marketing and super cool people”

• “Great work. Great People. Great Vibe”

• “I love my job”
