This is a senior, hands-on role. You’ll independently run our largest and most complex rollouts with our most important partners. You won’t just track the plan; you’ll write the playbooks, solve the problems blocking the work, and be the person retailers and vendors trust to get it done. You’ll also own project management as a discipline at Looma , building the program, documentation, and training that let the rest of the team deliver at the same level.
