Overview
We are seeking an experienced Campaign & Creative Services Lead to join us on a 2-month contract. This role will sit fully within the Creative Services team and act as the final quality and process checkpoint for all branded content and campaign delivery.
This individual will bring strong project management rigour to a creatively strong but process-light team, ensuring all campaigns are delivered on time, on budget, aligned to brand guidelines, and to an exceptional standard for clients and audiences.
There is potential for the role to become permanent, though this is not yet confirmed.
About the Team
The Creative Services function (including the studio and creative solutions teams) is responsible for the creation and delivery of branded content and channel posts stemming from sold commercial deals.
Previously, campaign flow moved between Creative Solutions and Client Services for approval and delivery. Going forward, full ownership of campaign delivery - from asset creation through to go-live - will sit within Creative Services.
This role will act as the final "barrier to the fence," ensuring what goes live is accurate, on-brief, compliant, authentic to the audience, and delivered to agreed timelines and budgets.
