• Proven success designing or evolving AI governance and guidelines for creative and marketing teams (e.g., prompts, approval workflows, quality and compliance standards).

• Familiarity with project/program management methodologies (e.g., Agile, Scrum, Kanban), with a track record of tailoring them to creative and marketing environments; formal certification (PMP, CSM, etc.) is a plus.
