Key Responsibilities:
Project Ownership & Delivery

  Manage budgets, resourcing, and timelines from pitch to publication
  

Global Project Management

• 
  Ensure delivery is globally aligned and locally relevant
  
• 
  Lead on internal and client reporting
  

Client Communication

• 
  Drive delivery-focused communication: asset sourcing, approvals, and sign-offs
  
• 
  Help bring creative ideas to life by working closely with internal creative leads
  

Internal Team Leadership

• 
  Coordinate across design, production, and creative teams
  
• 
  Maintain strong momentum across projects, particularly time-sensitive content
  
• 
  Mentor junior team members and manage resourcing needs
  

Workflow & Documentation

• 
  Convert voice notes and meetings into clear project plans and timelines
  
• 
  Own tools like Monday.com and PowerPoint to keep everything running smoothly
  
• 
  Act as the operational engine turning high-level strategy into tangible outcomes
  

About You:

• 
  7+ years in senior project management, operations, or production roles
  
• 
  Must have global delivery experience across multiple time zones and markets
  
• 
  Skilled in platforms like Monday.com (including its AI features) and PowerPoint
  
• 
  Detail-obsessed, deadline-driven, and confident with C-suite stakeholders
  
• 
  Strong communication, leadership, and crisis management skills
  
• 
  Comfortable operating alongside high-level strategic thinking, even if not leading it
  

What's on Offer:

• 
  A high-impact leadership role on a flagship global account
  
• 
  Hybrid work setup with a one-month-a-year work abroad option
  
• 
  Supportive, fast-paced culture that values excellence and autonomy
