About the Role
WPP is partnering with a luxury automotive group to define the future of modern luxury. This role is foundational to keeping our output-based model running smoothly at pace by routing regional demand into the central delivery engine, providing structure and visibility for complex programs, and harnessing WPP Open and agentic workflows for scaled, automated execution.
Responsibilities
- Own and run end-to-end orchestration and governance for the region, establishing clear cadences, rituals, and ways of working connecting local and regional teams with the global delivery engine.
- Partner with the Regional Lead and SPOCs (Production, CXM, Data) to channel local and regional work effectively into the global model.
- Capture local market needs and feed them into the global team so regional relevance and nuance are built into every output.
- Run the regional briefing and demand process end-to-end, ensuring requests are raised, validated, prioritised, and tracked through workflow tools (e.g., Workfront, JIRA, WPP Open) against agreed SLAs.
- Manage regional demand across rapid-turnaround requests and strategic builds, ensuring local peaks are smoothly absorbed by central delivery teams.
- Proactively manage risks, dependencies, and blockers, maintaining clear escalation pathways to keep delivery moving forward.
- Establish a single, trusted view of regional status, providing accurate, real-time reporting to leadership and full transparency to local markets on production status against SLAs.
- Oversee scope and change management within the region, maintaining disciplined control over deliverables and timelines.
- Continuously improve regional operations, standardising tooling and driving adoption of WPP Open and agentic workflows to increase speed, automation, and scale.
Requirements
- Demonstrated grasp of output-based, platform-led delivery models and experience orchestrating demand into central delivery engines across varying speeds of delivery.
- Proven track record aligning and orchestrating multi-agency, multi-disciplinary teams in matrixed, international environments.
- Hands-on command of end-to-end briefing and demand processes using enterprise management tools (e.g., Workfront, JIRA, WPP Open).
- Deep understanding of local market needs with the business acumen to ensure work is globally consistent yet locally adapted and relevant.
- Highly structured, detail-oriented approach with an unwavering commitment to process consistency, governance, and shared standards.
- Outstanding communication skills with the confidence to manage expectations, influence stakeholders across all levels, and provide transparent reporting.
- Flexibility with working hours to accommodate global and regional time zones. The role does not follow a standard 9:00 – 17:30 schedule and will require working early mornings or late evenings as required by regional demand and global collaboration.
