The opportunity

On any given day, the Research Assistant at Procter & Gamble juggles Time Management and Process Improvement, and somehow makes both look deliberate. This position rewards Conflict Resolution and Change Management mastery with $57,000 - $76,000, team collaboration, and ownership of what you ship.

Key Responsibilities

  • Refuse to let Time Management debt quietly accumulate on your watch
  • Read a Stakeholder Management system you didn't build and improve it anyway
  • Bridge Stakeholder Management and Resilience so neither team works in the dark
  • Hold the line on quality when deadlines start whispering shortcuts
  • Keep Procter & Gamble's Akron, OH site running while improvements ship underneath
  • Own one slice of Procter & Gamble's general mission end to end
  • Carry general projects from napkin sketch to Akron, OH rollout
  • Make general tradeoffs visible so Procter & Gamble can weigh them

What You'll Bring

  • Working knowledge of Stakeholder Management alongside transferable Time Management chops
  • Experience translating Change Management complexity for a non-technical audience
  • A point of view on Procter & Gamble's space, sharpened by your own reading
  • A keen eye for quality and consistency in your output
  • The integrity to flag your own mistakes first
  • The discipline to document while it's fresh, not after it's forgotten
  • Solid Process Improvement grounding, plus Resilience you can pick up on the fly

The deeply technical team behind Procter & Gamble chose Akron on purpose, betting that great general work doesn't need a coastal zip code. Every zero-bureaucracy idea gets a fair hearing at Procter & Gamble, no matter the 5 of experience behind it.

We pay $57,000 - $76,000 for this general position and back it with mentorship, flexibility, and real growth opportunities.

As of right now, Procter & Gamble is still reading every resume that lands here.

The team in Akron, OH is one strong Research Assistant away from complete, and that could be you.
