Strong knowledge of the production landscape in Toronto/ROC and ability to build and maintain strong vendor relationships Familiarity with content production for digital and integrated marketing campaigns Experience contributing to process improvement and operational excellence initiatives
How You’ll Succeed
Portfolios run smoothly with no surprises late in the process — risks get caught and resolved early, not discovered at delivery Creative, account and client teams trust you as the person who keeps complex productions on track without micromanaging Budgets land where they were scoped, with variances flagged and explained before they become problems Vendors and partners want to work with you again. You negotiate fairly and communicate clearly under pressure
