This role functions as a digital producer, responsible for translating strategy into structured plans, aligning resources, and ensuring work is delivered accurately and on time.

You’ll work closely with one of the strongest in-house creative teams, helping translate high-quality ideas into fully realized campaigns across paid media and digital touchpoints.

- Agency Management: Serve as the primary day-to-day point of contact for media agencies and external partners, aligning on timelines, deliverables, and execution standards to ensure work is delivered accurately and on schedule
- Campaign Production & Execution: Own the end-to-end production of campaigns across channels (YouTube, LinkedIn, programmatic, CTV, etc.), translating strategy into detailed execution plans with clear timelines, dependencies, targeting, budgets, and flighting
- Digital Production & Resource Management: Manage timelines, capacity, and asset readiness across campaigns and web initiatives, coordinating closely with internal teams to ensure work is properly resourced and delivered without delays
- Website Operations: Oversee the execution of website updates, landing pages, and campaign integrations, ensuring accuracy, consistency, and alignment with broader marketing efforts
- Asset & Creative Operations: Manage the flow, formatting, trafficking, and versioning of creative assets across campaigns and digital placements, ensuring assets meet channel requirements and are deployed correctly
- Process & Systems Optimization: Build and refine campaign and website workflows, identify inefficiencies, and implement automation and AI-driven solutions to improve speed, accuracy, and scalability
Required qualifications:
- 4–7+ years in digital production, marketing operations, campaign management, or similar execution-focused roles
- Demonstrated experience managing multi-channel campaign launches (paid media, web, landing pages)
- Strong operational rigor with attention to detail across timelines, assets, and delivery
- Experience coordinating across internal stakeholders and external agencies
- Comfort working with marketing tools, CMS platforms, and campaign management systems
- Ability to manage multiple concurrent workstreams with shifting priorities
- Familiarity with automation tools and interest in applying AI to improve workflows
Preferred qualifications:
- Background in digital production, media operations, or integrated campaign delivery
- Experience with resource planning, capacity management, or production scheduling
