Accountabilities

• Build and lead the internal product and creative operations function, establishing processes for gathering requests, prioritizing initiatives, assigning ownership, and maintaining internal systems.

• Design, develop, and continuously improve internal tools, workflows, and custom-built products in collaboration with operational teams and developers.
• Apply product management principles to agency operations, ensuring internal systems are intuitive, efficient, user-friendly, and aligned with the needs of their users.
• Determine which processes and tools should be standardized across the agency network and where individual teams require tailored approaches.
• Oversee the entire lifecycle of internal products and systems, from initial discovery and development through implementation, adoption, maintenance, and ongoing optimization.
• Establish feedback loops, facilitate discussions, and continuously evaluate how teams interact with internal systems to identify opportunities for improvement.

• Exceptional curiosity, empathy, and communication skills, with the ability to understand different perspectives and help stakeholders articulate underlying challenges and needs.
• Strong product judgment and attention to detail, particularly when designing intuitive user experiences and addressing micro-interactions without overlooking operational complexity.
• A long-term, scalable mindset, considering adoption, reliability, maintainability, and the evolving needs of teams when building solutions.
• Demonstrated ability to influence stakeholders, facilitate discussions, communicate ideas clearly, and encourage teams to adopt new ways of working.
• Strong understanding of artificial intelligence, including its capabilities, limitations, and practical applications, with the ability to integrate AI tools effectively into workflows.
