NEWMEDIA is looking for a Project Coordinator who is engaged, eager, smart, organized people-person who can manage multiple tasks at once, follow direction, handle complex things with aplomb, keep calm under pressure, communicate effectively between the client and members of the team, and have good client service/client management skills.

About Us

We're located in beautiful and sunny downtown Denver, Colorado—one of technology’s new hotspots in the United States. Denver is a quality-of-life destination: People strive to live here for the myriad ways they may pursue a healthy lifestyle, which includes abundant outdoor activities (we average 300 sunny days a year). Denver also boasts great housing options, low unemployment, and decent commute times.

NEWMEDIA is notable for its 20-year track record of providing full-service website design and development that is smart, user-friendly, and cutting-edge. Our work environment is friendly but hardworking; we have the stability of our longtime successes with a fun, start-up vibe. What makes NEWMEDIA special is its PEOPLE.

Currently experiencing exponential growth, we strive for and earn a significant portion of the $23 billion-a-year market for our services and we attract significant interest from both new clients and investors. We are a growing team of 50 fantastic people and projected to hit 100 by early 2017. As much as we have accomplished, it's a drop in the bucket compared to what we have planned. To get there—and to continue our pace of success and growth—we need to have the best and the smartest designers, developers, and project managers, and project coordinators joining our team. Ping pong skills are optional but highly recommended; on-the-job training is available.
