Job description

About the Role

Olive & June is looking for an exceptionally organized and proactive Manager, Marketing & Creative Operations to help drive the execution of our marketing and creative initiatives. You thrive on making things happen. You can see both the big picture and the smallest details, manage multiple workstreams without losing momentum, and know when to push, problem-solve, or escape.

Sitting at the intersection of Marketing, Brand, and Creative, you’ll turn priorities and big ideas into clear, actionable plans and making sure those plans get across the finish line.

What You’ll Do

• Own marketing and creative project timelines across campaigns, product launches, evergreen initiatives, and creative production from kickoff through final delivery.
• Manage creative workflows in Asana, including briefs, assignments, resources, feedback, revisions, approvals, and final handoffs.
• Drive creative reviews and approvals across Brand, Creative, Marketing, and senior leadership, ensuring materials are organized, feedback is captured, and work moves forward efficiently.
• Manage priorities and resources across internal teams, freelancers, content creators, and external partners, balancing business needs, deadlines, budgets, and team capacity.
• Maintain a high bar for execution, reviewing deliverables for quality and accuracy and proactively identifying risks, dependencies, and bottlenecks.
• Own creative asset organization across Dropbox and Google Drive and ensure teams have the right assets when they need them.
• Improve how we work by building and maintaining effective processes, trackers, templates, documentation, and cross-functional ways of working.
• Support photo and content production, including product sample tracking and attending LA-based shoots a few times per month to help ensure everything runs smoothly.

Who You Are

• 3–5 years of experience in marketing operations, creative operations, project management, or a related role, ideally within beauty, consumer, retail, or another fast-paced brand.
• An exceptional project manager who can confidently manage multiple priorities, stakeholders, and deadlines at once.
• Highly organized and detail-oriented, with strong ownership, sound judgment, and a proactive approach to problem-solving.
• A clear, confident communicator who can collaborate effectively across creative teams, cross-functional partners, and senior leadership.
• Comfortable bringing structure to ambiguity, adapting to changing priorities, and maintaining a high bar for creative quality and execution.
• Highly proficient in Google Workspace and experienced with Asana, Monday.com, Workfront, or a similar project management platform.
• Experience managing freelancers or external creative partners preferred; bachelor’s degree in a related field preferred.

What Success Looks Like

• You become a trusted operational partner across Marketing and Creative, the person people rely on to know what's happening, what needs to happen next, and what could get in the way.
• Projects have clear owners and timelines. Creative requests are appropriately prioritized. Reviews are productive and prepared.
• Feedback doesn't get lost. Assets are organized and easy to find.
• Teams know what they owe and when they owe it. Risks are surfaced early rather than becoming last-minute emergencies.
• Beyond keeping the trains running, you make the way we work better. You identify inefficiencies, build smarter processes, and create the structure that allows our Marketing and Creative teams to spend more time doing their best work.

Location

This role is remote within the Los Angeles area. Candidates must be based in LA and available to attend in-person photo and content shoots, typically 1-2x per month.
