Oversee the creation of decks and pitch materials, making sure scope, budget, and resourcing line up cleanly before they reach the client.

Maintain bidding calendars, prioritize an ongoing task list, and run regular status updates to keep every bid moving on time.
Maintain clear and constant communication with clients and leadership on deadlines, budget concerns, and project progress.
On project greenlight, brief the production team on what was sold, the assumptions behind it, and the key risks and pressure points.
Stay current on interactive platform capabilities, pricing trends, and emerging formats so bids reflect what is actually achievable today.
