Project management is what we’re called on paper, but we’re really more like project stewardship.
We’re a hard-working, determined team focused on making the creative process a fine-tuned machine, but one with the flexibility needed to be innovative and successful. Often referred to as the glue that keeps the agency teams running, we’re at our best when managing a collaborative project from kick- off meeting to launch date.
Leadership is key to our success and we excel when we share a seat at the table to solve problems and move obstacles out of the way so that our teams can thrive.
As the work we put out into the world grows, so too does the need for great project managers, and we’re currently looking to match the momentum of creative and find people who can help steer it.
