Smart Lab Powered by P&G

Smart Lab Project Manager

Welcome to the P&G Smart Lab. This is where “what if” meets reality. We’re building an inspiring space for explorers, thinkers and makers where we can work together to improve the future of home life around the world. Procter & Gamble is best known by our different brands. It’s likely you’ve used a few of our brands already today – Swiffer, Old Spice, Tampax, Always, Olay, Charmin, Bounty, Gillette, Tide, Gain, Cascade, Pepto Bismol, Dayquil, among many others. We impact about 5 billion – yes, you read that right – lives on a regular basis. Just because we have a lot of big-name brands doesn’t mean we think we know everything. Honestly, there is still a lot to be learned about consumer behaviors and practices. And this is where you come in. We are building a place where we can ask some pretty interesting questions about consumer behaviors, habits, and practices. Our work in the Smart Lab is breaking boundaries in the consumer behavior space. We’re using sensors and smart devices to study what people actually do. Think about it – would you remember how many sheets of toilet paper you used last Thursday? Most people wouldn’t. That’s why we’re doing things a little differently. Ultimately, we want to impact and improve people’s lives. And what better way than by understanding what they do and how they act? As a student at the P&G Smart Lab, your time will be divided into two parts – 70% of your weekly time will be driving core business work. We have some pretty interesting projects that we will be working on. The other 30% of your time will be your own. We expect you to spend this time learning, exploring, ideating, innovating, and working on projects that YOU think will be good for us to do. We’re building a team – this isn’t just a solo gig. Sure, we all appreciate our deep focus work time, and we’ll make sure you can have that time. But we also collaborate and need to be good at communicating well with each other. Project Management Student The core of what we do in the Smart Lab is the project. As the project manager, you’ll be responsible for keeping us on-track and on-time. You’ll know when to push us and you’ll know when to be flexible. We need someone who can help us focus on what is most important and who knows how to get things done. You will run the operations of our consumer research, including managing panelist communication & payment, as well as coordinating and managing our assets (smart devices, product, and other things) through shipping, cleaning, and storage. You’ll be really good at this job if you: Can set goals and keep them Know when to lead and know when to follow Aren’t afraid to set your own agenda aside and work with the team towards a collective goal Help us iterate, innovate, and ideate – we need to be lean and agile in the work we’re doing Have no problem getting your hands dirty – you’ll need to learn how to do the things you are asking your teammates to do Can balance multiple projects at the same time Apply through Handshake: https://illinois.joinhandshake.com/jobs/2992852
