Senior Editor, The COO Club

About The COO Club: Through TheDigitalProjectManager.com, we’ve built a substantial audience around project delivery, work management, PM software, operational systems, and the practical ways teams get work done. Now we’re building on that foundation to create The COO Club: a senior media brand for those responsible for how work is designed, governed, automated, and executed. The COO Club helps operations leaders make better decisions in the AI era through peer-driven insights, practical frameworks, executive playbooks, software guidance, events, and community-powered experiences. Our coverage focuses on AI-enabled operations, organizational design, cross-functional execution, operational efficiency, systems optimization, scalable delivery, and modern executive leadership. Our audience includes COOs, VPs of Operations, Heads of Delivery, operations executives, PMO leaders, transformation leaders, and senior practitioners looking for practical insight, trustworthy guidance, and meaningful professional connection.

You know how to turn practitioner insight into useful editorial experiences that feel credible, clear, visual, engaging, and worth sharing. You are not just a writer or editor. You are a builder of audience systems, community loops, and repeat engagement. You think beyond articles and understand that modern editorial engagement happens across newsletters, video, podcasts, social, community discussions, livestreams, events, partnerships, search, and AI discovery experiences. You are comfortable experimenting with formats, workflows, packaging, distribution strategies, and audience experiences to improve performance over time. You care about usefulness, clarity, audience trust, and measurable impact. What You'll Be Doing: 1.
