Your support in onboarding new ways of working and assisting with the day-to-day change will be invaluable. You must understand how to maintain and refine (where/when needed), best practice production across onsite/offsite production teams.

On-brand and engaging content, cost-saving and process efficiency are the client’s main focal points, so this role is a vital part of the team and key to the overall success in building a successful partnership with the brand.
You will report into the overall client service lead at Havas Studios, keeping them up to date on project scopes, workloads, resourcing, finance, and future opportunities.
