Job Description

We are Joie , a global baby gear brand established in 2011 and distributed across over 85 countries.

At Joie, we prioritize designing products with families in mind and our commitment extends to fostering joy-filled workplaces, where we celebrate our team members' skills, and nurture their development.

We offer superior health and welfare benefits, boasting a $0 Copay / $0 Deductible Medical & Prescription Plan Design, a 401(k) with a 6% Employer Match, Vision and Mental Health Benefits.

With our continued growth, and expansion into the US Market, we're seeking Creative Project Manager to join our Brand Marketing team in our Morgantown, PA offices, located just a mile off PA Turnpike exit 298.

The Creative Project Manager is the operational connector between our Brand Marketing and Creative teams — the person who keeps product launches, creative deliverables, and video productions moving with focus, clarity, and momentum.

This role owns the master product launch calendar (about 60% of focus) and oversees all video production projects (about 40%), ensuring both run smoothly, stay on budget, and align with brand priorities. Working closely with team members across the U.S., Europe, and Asia to manage timelines, resources, and deliverables, and keeping everyone on track in a fast-paced, collaborative environment.

If you’re energized by organized chaos, love creative problem-solving, and thrive on connecting people and processes to make great work happen — this role is for you.

You’ll be part of a passionate, fast-moving brand team that values creativity, collaboration, and forward thinking. This is a high-impact role for someone who loves to bring structure to the creative process and thrives on seeing big ideas come to life.
