Lead - Creative Project Management

About the role

We're looking for an experienced Creative Project Manager to lead the end-to-end delivery of multi-channel marketing campaigns and creative initiatives. You'll act as the key link between strategy, creative, production, and channel teams — driving clarity, momentum, and accountability across every stage of the project lifecycle.

This is a highly collaborative, cross-functional role that requires a balance of creative understanding, operational rigour, and stakeholder management. Ideal for someone with strong project leadership experience, adaptable across different marketing or creative sectors (retail, brand, digital, etc.).

You will be responsible for

• Manage integrated creative projects from brief through to delivery — including timelines, resources, scope, and dependencies.
• Lead cross-functional teams that may include creatives, designers, copywriters, media planners, channel leads, and third-party agencies.
• Own project plans and workflows, ensuring clear responsibilities, smooth handoffs, and timely escalations.
• Track progress against milestones and ensure alignment with campaign and business goals.
• Facilitate regular check-ins, reviews, and retrospectives with project teams and stakeholders.
• Resolve blockers quickly and proactively manage risks around delivery, capacity, or scope.
• Partner with Resource Managers and Traffic Managers to align people and priorities.
• Communicate effectively at all levels — from briefing creative teams to updating senior stakeholders on timelines or budget risks.

You will need

• 5+ years of experience managing marketing or creative projects — ideally in retail, e-commerce, agency, or content-heavy sectors.
• Proven experience delivering multi-format campaigns across digital, print, AV, and in-store.

• Experience working in matrixed or agile teams is a plus.

• Strong understanding of creative development workflows, production processes, and stakeholder coordination.

• Proficiency with project management tools like Workfront, Asana, Jira, Smartsheet, or similar.
• Confident managing multiple workstreams simultaneously while keeping an eye on the bigger picture.
