What you'll be doing
- Manage creative projects from brief through to delivery, ensuring timelines, actions and approvals remain on track.
- Coordinate workloads and priorities across the Studio, helping designers manage multiple projects effectively.
- Manage the briefing process, ensuring briefs are clear, complete and ready for the creative team.
- Act as a key point of contact for Marketing, Commercial, Artwork, agencies, media partners and other stakeholders.
