About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Act as the sole day-to-day Keenfolks point of contact for the client team, representing the full breadth of the engagement.
Own end-to-end project management for creative and content production workflows, from brief intake through final delivery.
Build, maintain, and communicate project timelines, ensuring all stakeholders are aligned on milestones and deliverables.
Manage resource allocation across internal creative teams and external partners, proactively identifying and resolving bottlenecks.
Facilitate standups, status meetings, and review sessions; document decisions and follow through on action items.
Maintain full project visibility in Adobe Workfront (or equivalent PM tooling), keeping tasks, timelines, and workloads current.
Identify risks early and escalate or resolve them before they impact delivery — given the sole-POC nature of this role, sound judgment on what to escalate internally is critical.
Track and report on project KPIs, budget adherence, and team capacity to Keenfolks leadership.
Continuously improve workflows, templates, and processes to increase team efficiency.
Partner with the Keenfolks AI and Tech teams to pilot, refine, and scale AI-powered production workflows within the Content Factory model.
Uphold the quality and compliance standards expected in a regulated pharmaceutical client environment.
