The Opportunity

We’re looking for a Project Manager who thrives in a fast-paced, start-up environment to support our Business Development and Operations team. This is a unique opportunity to wear many hats — balancing day-to-day execution with high-level strategy — while making a direct impact on the growth of our business.

You’ll play a critical role in helping Plug scale by ensuring projects are delivered on time, stakeholders are aligned, and operations run smoothly.

What You’ll Do
  • Partner with Business Development and Operations to manage projects from concept through execution
  • Track deadlines, deliverables, and dependencies across multiple initiatives
  • Support both administrative tasks (tracking, scheduling, reporting) and strategic work (market analysis, operational improvements)
  • Build and maintain project dashboards, documentation, and process flows to keep teams aligned
  • Proactively identify risks, gaps, or inefficiencies — and propose solutions before they become blockers
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with leadership, product, and external partners
  • Bring energy and clarity to a fast-moving start-up where priorities can shift quickly
What You Bring
  • 3–5 years of experience in project management, operations, or business development support
  • Exceptional organizational and analytical skills; detail-oriented without losing sight of the big picture
  • Strong communication skills, both written and verbal, with the ability to influence and align stakeholders
  • A proactive, self-starter mindset — you don’t wait to be told what to do, you anticipate needs
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment and wearing multiple hats
  • Familiarity with start-up culture and tools (e.g., Notion, Asana, Airtable, Slack) a plus
  • Bonus: experience in EVs, automotive, or sustainability-related industries

Why You’ll Love Plug
  • Be part of a mission-driven team tackling the future of EV remarketing
  • Work directly with founders and senior leaders on high-impact projects
  • Grow quickly in a start-up where initiative is rewarded and ideas are heard
  • Collaborative, energetic, and no-ego culture — we’re building together

Base Compensation: $100,000 - 110,000 + equity

Plug is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all team members.
