About the Role

You are comfortable wearing many hats, whether writing a creative brief, outlining a strategy deck, creating a workback plan or developing a billing schedule. You are responsible for working with creatives and strategists to set the course for your clients, taking care to understand both our clients’ needs and our internal teams’ needs.
You have 4+ years of agency or equivalent brand-side experience. You will have the support of the growing bi-coastal Project Team, and report to a Senior Project Lead.

Our beliefs on diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging:
- We hire great people from a wide breadth of backgrounds, not only because it’s the right thing to do, but also because it makes our work, our company and our communities stronger.
