Project Manager (Ads)

Producer / Project Manager

We’re looking for an experienced Producer or Project Manager to oversee the day-to-day execution of digital ad production. This role is ideal for someone who is highly organized, detail-oriented, and thrives in managing requests, approvals, and cross-functional communication in a fast-paced environment.

You’ll be the operational owner of ad requests—ensuring they are complete, accurate, and aligned with client requirements, while guiding work through internal teams and all required approvals, including legal, before final delivery.

In this role, you’ll manage projects from intake through final approval, acting as the key point of contact between clients, creative teams, and legal partners. You’ll ensure requests are clearly defined, timelines are realistic, and nothing falls through the cracks. Strong follow-through, proactive communication, and comfort navigating legal review processes are essential. Ads work includes some simple AV production, but primarily requires a knowledge of static design.

Responsibilities

• Manage the end-to-end workflow for ad creation projects across design and AV
• Own the intake and management of ad requests and relaying needs to designers and editors
• Coordinate closely with design, video, and production teams to move work forward efficiently
• Lead communication with legal teams, managing reviews, feedback, and approvals
• Serve as a primary point of contact for account teams on project status, requirements, and timelines
• Track progress, timelines, and approvals across multiple projects simultaneously
• Identify risks or gaps early and proactively resolve issues before they impact delivery
• Ensure final assets meet creative, legal, and client standards prior to delivery
• Maintain accurate project documentation and status updates
  

Requirements

• 3+ years of experience as a Project Manager or Producer, ideally in advertising, marketing, or creative production
• Experience managing production workflows, specifically production design
• Proven experience working with legal review and approval processes
• Strong ability to manage high volumes of requests while maintaining attention to detail
• Excellent communication skills and comfort working directly with clients and cross-functional teams
• Highly organized, proactive, and dependable
• Able to juggle multiple projects and priorities without losing momentum
• Competence in Adobe Creative Suite and understanding of digital art specs
• Experience with Airtable or other project management tools is a plus
