Role Title: Senior Program Manager

About the role
Your primary goal is to ensure that our creative teams can deliver groundbreaking work that exceeds client expectations, within agreed budgets and timelines. You’ll create project proposals and partner with our clients to write clear creative briefs. You’ll manage budgets and timelines, gather creative feedback, and keep your teams informed. You’ll be a central point of contact for clients, and a key representative of our agency.
Our work ranges from large-scale websites to smaller microsites. We also do plenty of
email, social, and display ad campaigns, plus brand identity work (logo design and
naming). So, you should be comfortable with managing diverse types of creative
projects with multiple dependencies, ensuring that those projects are delivered
on-time and on-budget, and being a key point of client contact.
This specific role will be focused on leading a large scale CRM/email program.

We mastered the art of working remotely since long before “corona” meant anything other than a tasty beverage, so much of your work will be with fully-remote team members located across North America.
