Project delivery
Own project workflows from briefing through to final delivery, keeping internal teams aligned on deliverables, timelines, and priorities.

Document decisions, client feedback, and next steps in shared project management tools (e.g., Asana, Harvest, Zoho). Review deliverables for completeness, accuracy, and alignment with the brief before submission.
Risk & budget
Proactively spot project risks, scope changes, and timeline pressures, and escalate as appropriate. Propose solutions and revised timelines to keep projects moving when issues arise. Support budget management by tracking scope, flagging overruns, and keeping documentation accurate.
Process & collaboration
Contribute to refining workflows, best practices, and internal documentation. Support new-client onboarding: intake, briefing documents, and team introductions. Contribute to a positive, collaborative, client-focused team culture.
What you bring
Demonstrated experience in marketing coordination, account management, or client services within an agency or similar environment. Strong understanding of marketing principles and strategies across digital and traditional channels. Fully bilingual : strong written and verbal communication in English and French. Excellent organization and time management; comfortable prioritizing in a fast-paced setting. Proficiency with project management tools and collaborative platforms.
