And, as a purpose‑driven company, we also use our creativity to do good in the world by supporting causes we truly believe in.

Who We’re Looking For:

- We’re looking for an experienced, cooperative Project Manager to join our growing team and lead the planning, coordination and delivery of large‑scale, integrated campaigns across teams, partners and channels.
- You’ll work on a high‑profile account alongside an experienced senior team, bringing together ambitious creative thinking, brand strategy, integrated media and production. It’s a chance to help bring bold ideas to life and deliver work with a lasting impact.
- You translate ambitious briefs into comprehensive workflow plans with clear timelines, deliverables, resources and ownership. You bring teams and partners together across paid, owned and earned channels, managing dependencies, anticipating risks and navigating multiple approval layers to deliver campaigns on time, on budget and to the highest standard.
- You’re a confident, client‑facing leader who brings structure and calm to complex creative work, balancing creative ambition with practical delivery needs.



You’re excited to strengthen project management practices and build better ways of working at Zulu Alpha Kilo.

What You’ll Be Doing:

You’ll work with teams across all three of our offices to deliver integrated campaigns from briefing through launch and wrap‑up, while helping build consistent, scalable project‑management practices across the agency. More specifically, you will:

- Build and Own Integrated Campaign Plans: Translate campaign briefs into comprehensive workflows, timelines, milestones, deliverables and resource requirements. Connect strategy, creative development, production, partner deliverables, media deadlines, legal reviews, approvals and launch in one coordinated plan.
- Manage Dependencies and Keep Work Moving: Map critical paths, decision points and approval stages across concurrent workstreams. Understand how changes in one area affect the wider campaign, and adjust plans to keep teams aligned and delivery on track.
- Bring Teams and Partners Together: Coordinate creative, strategy, account service, resourcing, production and relevant media, digital, social, and external partners. Establish clear ownership, responsibilities, deadlines and handoffs, helping resolve competing priorities and maintain momentum.

technical and accessibility requirements. Maintain deliverable matrices covering formats, specifications, versions, adaptations, languages and markets, with clear version control across assets.
- Keep Partner Inputs and Approvals on Track: Build client and partner requirements, deliverables and approval stages into project plans from the outset. Work with account teams to consolidate feedback, manage revision cycles and track decisions, sign‑offs and outstanding inputs.
- Manage Scope, Budgets and Risk: Monitor project scope, budgets and resource allocations in partnership with account, production and finance teams. Identify risks early, assess the impact of changes and communicate recommendations before new commitments are made.
- Balance Creative Ambition with Delivery: Help teams understand the timing, budget and resource implications of project decisions. Challenge unrealistic assumptions and find practical ways to support great creative work while maintaining achievable plans and clear expectations.
- Keep Everyone in the Loop: Lead project status meetings and maintain accurate schedules, trackers and action items. Give teams and stakeholders a clear view of progress, upcoming decisions and delivery risks, documenting changes and escalating issues with recommended next steps.
- Partner with the Resource Team: Forecast resource needs across campaign phases, identify capacity conflicts and work with Resource Management and discipline leads to ensure the right people are involved at the right time.
- Drive Launch Readiness and Wrap‑Up: Lead launch‑readiness reviews to resolve outstanding dependencies, confirm final approvals and coordinate asset delivery, trafficking requirements
