Creative Project Manager

Are you looking to be part of a high-performing team of go-getters who make a difference both on and off the court? Join the Detroit Pistons as we harness the power of basketball to unite our city, elevate our fans, and drive lasting community impact.

As our Creative Project Manager, you'll be the operational force behind the campaigns, content, and experiences that engage fans across the court, arena, social media, and marketing channels. 

Working across the Detroit Pistons, Motor City Cruise, and the upcoming WNBA Detroit franchise, you'll partner with designers, producers, marketers, and stakeholders to keep projects moving from concept to completion. You'll manage priorities, optimize workflows, coordinate resources, and create the structure that allows our Creative team to produce its best work. 

If you're an organized, proactive project manager who thrives in fast-paced creative environments and enjoys bringing clarity to complex projects, we'd love to meet you.
