Job Level
About the role
- Own end-to-end delivery of AI image/video projects - from kickoff to final delivery - across multiple clients and timelines.
- Lead client communication throughout: run production check-ins, manage expectations, drive next steps, and ensure feedback is consolidated into clear, actionable direction.
- Partner on early-stage alignment: support the brief intake and concept alignment phase by asking smart questions, challenging assumptions, and helping refine the scope into an executable plan.
- Build the production framework for each project: timelines, milestones, review cycles, approval gates, versioning, and “definition of done” for every deliverable.
- Run working sessions with Creative + Production to keep output flowing, remove blockers, and maintain momentum during rapid iteration.
- Protect creative intent while keeping the machine tight: ensure the team is producing at speed without compromising taste, brand fit, or quality standards.
- Create clean systems and documentation: briefs, alignment notes, review trackers, handoff packages, delivery folders - everything organized, traceable, and client-ready.
- Manage trust and compliance signals (without being heavy): ensure clarity on what’s being produced, what’s being delivered, and what the client is approving - avoiding any “black box” feeling.
- Continuously improve how the studio runs: identify bottlenecks, refine workflows, and implement better processes as volume grows.
Requirements
- 6+ years of project management experience in a creative agency, production studio, content studio, or communications agency environment.
- Proven experience managing multiple projects in parallel with high client touch, tight timelines, and lots of stakeholders.
- Strong production instincts: you understand how creative work is made (reviews, iterations, approvals) and how to keep it moving without draining the team.
- Excellent client presence: confident leading calls, handling pressure, and turning ambiguity into a clear plan.
- Highly organized and systems-minded: you bring structure that enables creativity - not bureaucracy.
- Comfortable in fast-moving environments where tools and workflows evolve quickly (you adapt fast and stay calm).
- Enough creative sensitivity to contribute: you can spot risks, ask the right questions, and help shape direction—but you don’t need to be the one writing the entire creative strategy.
- Experience building scalable workflows in a growing studio or start-up environment.
- Big Plus : Experience working with AI-enabled or rapid-iteration creative pipelines (or a strong curiosity and real exposure to AI tools/work).
- Familiarity with usage rights / licensing sensitivities in content production (helpful in AI contexts).
Benefits

- Freestyle Fridays : We wrap up at 2:00 PM ET every Friday. Long weekends, every week.
- Comprehensive Insurance : Dental, vision, and medical coverage for you and your loved ones.
- Room to Grow : Take advantage of real internal mobility in a fast-growing company where “sky’s the limit” isn’t just a saying.
