Brand Manager

About us

Our studio is united by one idea – if we’re going to put work out into the world it better mean something – it better be funny, moving, insightful, witty or beautiful. Because for us, design and advertising aren’t inert. They are deeply powerful forces that help us understand our world, but also to shape it. It’s lofty rhetoric we fall short of multiple times a day, but our team agrees, failing at this is better than succeeding at anything else. And we guess it’s an idea that’s resonated with some other people, because we’re a fast-growing little shop, and right now we’re on fire. We want to invite someone to come be part of this place, someone inspired by our mission who feels compelled to be a part of it.

About you:

You're independent, thoughtful and solution-oriented. You are always anticipating what comes next, and proactively solving for it. You communicate, communicate, communicate. You’re able to make sense of foggy situations, creating space and time for your team to do their best work.

‍

‍About the gig:

Our ideal candidate has 2-4 years of account and/or project and production management under their belt – whether that is in design, advertising, print, or digital. Joining a tight-knit studio where we go to the wall to support one another, while also holding each other accountable (no matter your position) is a refreshing and—dare we say—intoxicating environment for you. We will throw you into the deep end. We aren’t afraid of failure. We are petrified of mediocracy. At an intermediate level, we will support you, but you have to show us you can learn quickly through observation, asking questions, and above all, tabling solutions and taking action. We work together, but we’re all running shoulder to shoulder towards our vision of creative excellence. There is no room for passengers. If that really, truly excites you, maybe you belong here.

‍Core Responsibilities:

• Manage client relationships and oversee project execution, ensuring alignment with client objectives.
• Lead project timelines, budgets, and resources while keeping the team engaged and motivated.
• Facilitate cross-team coordination to ensure seamless project delivery.
• Maintain thorough project documentation, ensuring up-to-date status reports and forecasting.
• Contribute to business development efforts by supporting growth initiatives.
• Cultivate positive, collaborative relationships with both internal teams and clients.

Qualifications:

• 2-4 years of experience in project or account management within a creative or digital agency.
• Familiarity with supporting teams that have developed award-winning campaigns, branding, or digital experiences.
• Experience managing both digital and traditional media campaigns.
• Strong knowledge of design, branding, advertising, website creation, content strategy, and social media.
• Expertise in managing budgets, timelines, resources, and tasks efficiently.
• Excellent communication skills, with an ability to provide clear and constructive feedback.
• Proven success in fostering relationships with clients and creative teams.
• Strong ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously, meeting deadlines and delivering results.
  
  

What Sets You Apart:

• You are a proactive problem solver, anticipating challenges before they arise.
• You balance a passion for exceptional work with a genuine empathy for team dynamics.
• You’re adept at guiding creative teams while maintaining project focus and alignment.
• You maintain a sharp eye for detail without losing sight of the broader goals.
• You stay ahead of emerging platforms and technologies, incorporating them into your projects with ease.
