  • Excellent understanding of production requirements for digital, social media, paid media, and performance-driven creation.
  • Experience in developing production quotes, estimates, and budgets, as well as managing expenses throughout a project.
  • Experience in managing multiple simultaneous creative projects and creative traffic in a fast-paced agency or studio environment.
  • Strong operational sense and the ability to identify production risks, dependencies, and resource needs before they become obstacles.
  • Comfort in negotiating with talent, freelancers, suppliers, and external production partners.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to work effectively with creative, strategic, media, and client service teams.
