About the role

All deliverables must adhere strictly to regulatory standards and agency quality benchmarks.

Responsibilities

• Drive end-to-end planning, execution, and delivery of complex, multi-channel campaigns across digital, print, social, and broadcast mediums.
• Oversee end-to-end production workflows for photo and video shoots, including pre-production planning, estimating, scheduling, crew/talent logistics, and post-production timelines.
• Manage fast-moving social media content calendars, asset rotation schedules, and multi-format digital asset deliverables.
• Build comprehensive project scopes, maintain rigorous budget tracking, forecast resourcing needs, and proactively manage scope creep.
• Coordinate internal workflows around Medical, Legal, and Regulatory (MLR/LMR) review cycles, ensuring timelines account for compliance checkpoints and annotations.
• Partner seamlessly with account management, creative, strategy, development, and medical editorial teams to keep all stakeholders aligned, prioritized, and on schedule.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of digital and production project management experience, with a mandatory background in dedicated healthcare, medical, or pharmaceutical advertising agencies.
• Demonstrated hands-on experience managing physical and digital production workflows, including photo shoots, video productions, and high-volume social campaigns.
• Deep familiarity with pharma regulatory environments, MLR routing, and compliance timelines.
• Mastery of project management software (e.g., Asana, Jira, Workfront, Monday.com) and resource-allocation tools.
• Exceptional organizational skills, a calm demeanor under pressure, and superior communication skills.
