Serve as the regional point person for global initiatives, ensuring local execution matches the brand's premium worldwide standards.
Serve as the definitive internal and external authority on high-volume primary production, delivering swift, strategic, and actionable guidance on all inquiries.
Continuously evaluate and refine internal workflows to maximize productivity, efficiency, and quality across all primary projects.
Ensure implementation and optimization of engagement processes to ensure the highly efficient, scalable delivery of video, digital and print content.
Oversee the complete project lifecycle—from initiation to final delivery—actively managing scope, creative briefing, and milestone tracking for all primary assets.
Author clear, precise, and comprehensive production briefs for onshore and offshore teams, ensuring flawless alignment, accurate execution, and seamless cross-border delivery.
Establish and manage robust project-closing documentation to ensure key learnings and financial reconciliations are captured.
Lead weekly status meetings with clients, agency partners, and internal teams to maintain absolute transparency, momentum, and alignment.
Act as the central communication hub, delivering clear updates on project health, timing, and budgets, while proactively identifying potential blockers and executing swift resolutions.
Demonstrate a highly proactive, entrepreneurial approach, taking complete personal ownership of project outcomes, timelines, and client satisfaction.

Requirements

7+ years of progressive project management or production experience within an integrated creative agency, production house, or similar fast-paced environment.
Deep understanding of the creative development process, primary production pipelines (video, digital and print), creative technology, QA testing, and modern marketing methodologies.
Proven experience in bottom-up scoping, building and managing project budgets, tracking actuals, and authoring detailed Statements of Work (SOWs).
Demonstrated ability to manage complex, high-volume projects (or major components of multi-million dollar initiatives), consistently delivering on time, on scope, and on budget.
A natural problem-solver capable of designing win-win solutions for clients, creative teams, and production partners without compromising creative quality or project integrity.
A calm, confident, and highly accountable leader who thrives under pressure and navigates complex, matrixed agency environments with professionalism and grace.
Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with a natural ability to foster collaboration across diverse, cross-functional teams.
