Join Admind Branding & Communications, the largest global branding agency in Poland. As a certified B Corp, we're all about creating branding experiences that not only transform organizations, such as ABB, UBS, Syngenta, Acceleron, and Hitachi, but also make a positive impact on the world.

At Admind you'll be working alongside more than 200 creative experts from over 15 countries. You'll become part of an international community that specializes in design and branding strategy, where diversity, equity, and inclusion are valued part of the experience.

We work in a supportive feedback culture, where regular, honest conversations help you feel confident, stay aligned, and continue growing. You'll have the chance to help us use conscious branding to become a force for good, making a real difference for the environment, our employees, and society as a whole.

Come and make an impact with us!

What you will do:
  • Set and enforce operational standards across the agency - utilisation, billability, capacity, and data governance

  • Manage and develop a team of 3-4 FTEs within the Operations function

  • Establish the agency's single source of truth for utilisation, margin, and capacity data

  • Lead the Implementation Roadmap across three phases: Foundation (months 1-3), Standardisation + Early Automation (months 3-6), and Acceleration (months 6-12)

We look forward to working together if:
  • You have 8+ years of experience in operations management, ideally within a creative, marketing, or similar services agency

  • You have proven track record of owning resource utilisation, capacity planning, and EBITDA-impacting decisions

  • You have experience managing and leading cross-functional operational teams

  • You have the ability to build data intelligence models and reporting frameworks

  • You are fluent in project management and resource planning tools (Scoro, HubSpot, or equivalent)

  • You are fluent in English

Our offer:
  • Feel Good, Do Good: Private healthcare (Luxmed), Multisport card, group life insurance (Allianz), Ask Henry - a personal assistant service to help with everyday tasks

  • Learn & Grow: Knowledge-sharing sessions, access to e-learning platform, possibility to join mentoring program, English classes

  • Balance That Works: Hybrid model in Kraków and Warsaw, remote work in other locations (in Poland)

  • Be Yourself, Belong: Inclusive culture where you can be your authentic self, a team that values different perspectives and backgrounds

  • Eat, Laugh, Celebrate: Daily breakfasts and twice a week lunches in the office, occasional company events
