About Acclivity

At Acclivity, we work with innovative, technical clients in manufacturing, engineering, and tech, helping them turn complexity into clarity through strategic B2B marketing. We’re not here for bloated bureaucracy or busywork. We focus on quality execution, aligned strategy, and systems that scale.

As a remote-first, results-driven agency, we blend precision with personality. If you know how to lead projects, herd (creative) cats, and bring clarity to chaos - without needing your hand held - we want to talk to you.

About the Role

You’ll support our CEO and client leads in ensuring that projects flow efficiently across departments—from strategy to creative, dev to analytics.

This role is ideal for someone who has worked in agency environments and is now offering part-time/fractional PM services to multiple clients. You bring a structured approach to managing moving parts, understand how agencies tick, and thrive in detail.
