Creative Project Manager

About the Role

We are looking to expand our creative service capabilities by hiring a full-time Digital Creative Producer. Reporting to the Associate Director of Creative Production, you will be a trailblazer helping to build the creative offering for a top performance marketing agency.  You will partner with our Accounts Services team and alongside clients to develop creative that drives results. You’ll be responsible for animating paid media ads for digital channels (including but not limited to Facebook, Google, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, YouTube) both net-new and from existing client materials. You’ll be somewhat of a motion generalist, at times jumping from animation into short-form video editing.

Responsibilities:

Creative:

• Possess an understanding of direct response media, platform best practices and creative execution for the sake of performance, along with willingness to learn the details of paid media strategy.
• Understand short-form video production processes, timelines, and how to run a project efficiently.
• Serve as the fulcrum between concept and execution, working closely in collaboration with clients and creative teams of Designers and Editor / Animators.
• Helping translate creative/client briefs into direct response design, video and animation assets for paid platforms (including but not limited to Facebook, Google, Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube), both net-new and from existing client materials.
• You are a people-person and self-starter, who can speak creative in a way that bridges client vision with team collaboration throughout a timely production process. 
• You kickstart new projects by reaching out to the right people at the right time and by being the right person when clients reach out to us -- responding to client briefs and co-creating pitches, treatments and proposals. 
• You are timely and punctual, setting up meetings and acting alongside our in-house creatives from pitch to proposal to delivery. You’re the pacer and peacemaker and guiding oversight on creative projects, principally responsible for timely and exceptional delivery.
• Scoping and quoting projects to agency rates, as well as establishing and maintaining project schedules.
• Comfort with copywriting / script concept and development alongside teams and clients.
• Act as the quality-assurance bridge between our internal team and your clients, providing internal feedback that makes external deliveries smooth.

Team Work:

• Partner with Editor/Animators and Designers on a variety of deliverables. As part of the team, you’ll collaborate with creative team members nationally.
• Look after the creative production process and improve the work by offering new angles, best practices and practical solutions -- ensuring projects meet and exceed our standards.
• Be keen to learn from others and push yourself to make good work into great work.
• Partner alongside Account & Channel teams in order to find opportunities to foster and grow new opportunities for the agency.
• Working across teams and time zones to develop design concepts to drive client paid media performance.

About You

The essentials:

• 2-6 years technical experience with performance creative production (preferably at a performance-focused agency)
• Portfolio is required
• Client-facing communication experience
• Exceptional organizational skills, exhibited in a fast-paced environment
• Deep familiarity with short form content and production cadences

Not a must, but a plus:

• Experience with Facebook/Instagram ad design
• Experience with banner ad design (IAB standards)
• Ability to generate Presentation decks (Google Slides, Powerpoint, etc.)
• B2C and B2B experience
