Responsibilities

Leadership & Stakeholder Management: Provide visible, credible leadership across client, agency, technology, implementation-partner, and company teams.
Integrated Delivery: Lead complex client engagements and the end-to-end Workfront implementation roadmap from discovery and requirements through planning, launch, adoption, and optimization, with accountability for milestones, dependencies, resources, budgets, scope, risks, and delivery quality.

Agency + Company Integration: Connect client and agency workflows with company operating models, controls, data, and reporting requirements. Clarify roles, ownership, and handoffs while simplifying process and reducing duplication or manual workarounds.
Workfront Design & Governance: Define and govern Workfront project templates, task structures, roles, approval gates, service-level expectations, permissions, reporting, dashboards, resource visibility, and change requests to create consistent ways of working.
Adobe Ecosystem & Systems Integration: Coordinate requirements and integration points across Workfront, AEM Assets/DAM, Adobe Express, Adobe Fusion, Frame.io, SharePoint, and relevant content, activation, and business systems to enable connected workflows, reliable handoffs, and appropriate automation.
Change, Testing & Launch: Own implementation planning, RAID management, user acceptance testing, issue resolution, launch readiness, training, onboarding, communications, and transition into day-to-day operations to drive confident adoption across client and agency teams.
Optimization, Automation & AI: Monitor adoption and workflow effectiveness after launch, maintain a prioritized optimization roadmap, and identify opportunities for automation and AI-enabled workflows across the content supply chain.
People, Financial & Discipline Leadership: Manage and develop project management talent; maintain financial and resource discipline across the portfolio; reinforce PM and operational best practices; and represent the discipline in senior leadership and new business discussions.
