  • Monitor ticket progress and proactively follow up on upcoming ETAs, missing inputs, approvals, and deadlines.

  • Track creative delivery status and maintain accurate project trackers throughout campaign execution.

Quality Assurance (Checklist-Based)

    • Confirm file specifications (dimensions, format, file size) match channel requirements.

    • Cross-check asset versions across channels for consistency.

  • Flag discrepancies and escalates to senior team members for review.

Reporting & Documentation

  • Provide weekly status updates that summarize creative deliveries, outstanding approvals, project risks, and operational blockers.

  • Maintain accurate documentation of file paths, tracker updates, and campaign timelines throughout the project lifecycle.

  • Keep shared team drive folders organized and up to date, ensuring files/folders are accessible and easy for partners to navigate.

  • Maintain and refresh templates (e.g., agendas, intake forms, tracker views) to support team workflows.

  • Help collect baseline inputs for post‑launch retrospectives (e.g., “what slipped,” “missing copy,” “timing conflicts”).

  • Ensure consistency across documentation, file organization, naming conventions, and operational processes.

Basic Qualifications
