• Partner closely with creative, media, strategy, development, and leadership teams to keep initiatives moving efficiently
• Support leadership with recommendations regarding scope changes, resourcing, and project prioritization
• Participate in client-facing meetings and communications as needed while maintaining strong professional presence and organization
• Help create operational clarity and structure for fast-moving client workstreams
