Strategic Initiative: Take the lead in navigating strategy and tactical approaches. We need someone who looks beyond the immediate brief to identify how we can provide more value and deeper impact for our partners.
Cross-Functional Leadership: Act as the "connective tissue" between clients and internal teams. You will ensure creative, production, and digital teams are fully looped in, briefed accurately, and aligned on all deliverables.
End-to-End Project Ownership: Maintain total oversight of the project lifecycle. From initial brainstorming to final delivery, you ensure timelines are met, workflows are efficient, and the final output is of the highest quality.
