• Work closely with the other PMs within the project management team to ensure the smooth running of the team's schedule.
• Assisting the Project Director with project-based documentation such as SOWs, cost estimates, timing plans and production schedules ensuring they follow agency process.
• Acting as the team support on projects, making sure that the creative team are aligned and all project requests are actioned.

• Time management - High levels of organisation and brilliant at working in parallel on multiple projects.
• Flexible and adaptable.
• MS Office - Comfortable in MS Excel, Word and PowerPoint.
• An interest in creative, design, advertising and digital experience.
• A self-starter with the ability to work independently.
• A diplomatic and confident communicator.
