Project management: Understands the importance of tracking time, scope and budget. Takes responsibility for executing smaller projects with limited senior support, and is responsible for specific assigned tasks on later projects. Follows instructions and asks relevant questions. Escalates issues and flags risks. Takes ownership of timeline management where assigned. Ensures change requests are managed with business approval.

Finance management: Develops a good understanding of the overall financial processes within the agency. Works with Project Managers to ensure timely delivery of all financial reports. Raises supplier PO's as necessary and tracks client purchase orders, flagging when not received. Is knowledgeable of ITI, PO and invoice approval process and maintains awareness of SOW reconciliation. Responsible for running burn reports to monitor time spent on projects and ensuring regular timesheet approval for billing.

Relationship management: Builds relationships with client point of contact. Understands who the internal and external stakeholders are. Fosters collaborative relationships with third parties. Is sensitive to potential challenges and risks and raises concerns quickly.

Process management: Acts as the gatekeeper to agency processes, ensuring appropriate signatories and approvals are in place. Helps foster an environment of continuous improvement and supports in identifying efficiencies.

Data & GDPR management: Has a broad understanding for GDPR compliance and how that interacts with your projects.

Communication planning: Understands the holistic direction of the account and the subsequent tactical deliverables within. Owns the status updates and communicates status updates to clients. Participates in client project meetings as appropriate.

Qualifications
  • You will be able to build relationships quickly, confident and personable in your approach
  • You will have the ability to adapt and flex your working style dependent on the audience
