Project Coordinator (Slack/Asana expert) [420]

About the Company

CGK Linens is a fast-growing, fully remote eCommerce company specializing in high-quality home linens. As a startup, we move quickly, prioritize clarity over bureaucracy, and value execution above all else. Our culture is built around ownership, communication, and a deep respect for focused, intentional work. You’ll be joining a tight-knit team that believes in reducing chaos through process and supporting each other in doing our best work.

About the Role

We are seeking a highly organized, detail-oriented Project Coordinator (Slack/Asana expert) to drive internal communication, accountability, and execution across the company. This role is central to our operating system, owning follow-ups, tracking project progress, and ensuring that nothing gets lost in the shuffle. You’ll work closely with the CEO and executive team, sitting inside Slack and Asana every day to keep our workflows moving. The ideal candidate is assertive yet diplomatic, thrives in fast-paced environments, and has a knack for identifying what’s slipping and doing something about it. This is not a support role; it’s a role with real authority and ownership.

This role is a Full-Time remote position.

Eligibility

We are looking for a Project Coordinator (Slack/Asana expert) specifically with these requirements:

• Excellent English written and verbal communication skills.
• Confident working with execs and senior leaders.
• Experience in roles like Project Manager, Project Coordinator, or Ops/Comms Manager.
• Familiar with Slack (channels, etiquette, follow-ups) and Asana or similar tools.
• Highly organized and detail-focused; able to track multiple threads without losing context.
• Comfortable nudging and reminding others, even when it’s uncomfortable.
• Emotionally steady; doesn’t take delays or slow replies personally.
• Process-minded; thinks in systems, not one-offs.
• High integrity; trusted to act on behalf of the CEO.
• Low ego; fine being the “unpopular” enforcer when needed.
• Quick to absorb large amounts of info and keep things moving.
• Fast-paced startup experience preferred.
• Strong availability during working hours, with flexibility for occasional off-hours.
• Able to learn our systems quickly and make them better.

Responsibilities

• Monitor Slack for unanswered questions and missed action items.
• Follow up for the CEO and execs; replace “Remind Me Later” with human follow-through.
• Keep accountability in public channels; prevent things from getting buried in DMs.
• Track Slack response times; log delays and spot patterns.
• Share regular summaries with leadership flagging bottlenecks and unclear ownership.
• Manage Asana projects; make sure tasks have owners, deadlines, and clear priorities.
• Follow up on overdue or blocked tasks; escalate when needed.
• Turn Slack convos into clear, actionable tasks.
• Help enforce priority levels (urgent, same-day, etc.).
• Suggest process improvements to reduce noise and improve clarity.
• Support a culture of clean execution, not chaos.

Growth Opportunities/Perks

Work closely with the CEO and executive team, with real impact on daily operations. Play a key role in shaping how the company runs as we scale. Chance to grow into a senior operations or chief of staff-type role over time. High visibility across all departments. You’ll be the go-to for execution follow-through. Fully remote role with flexibility once you're up to speed. Clear path to long-term stability if aligned on values and performance. Work in a direct, no-drama environment that values clarity, ownership, and results.

You’re not a fit for this role if…

❌ You’re unfamiliar with Slack or uncomfortable managing multiple channels.
❌ You haven’t used Asana or a similar project management tool.
❌ You struggle to track details or juggle multiple threads at once.
❌ You avoid following up with senior team members or hesitate to escalate issues.

Our hiring process is made up of four parts, so please be aware that you will need to dedicate time for a questionnaire, a video, and two 1-on-1 interviews.

Thank you for taking the time to consider this position. I look forward to hearing from you soon!
