- Running weekly stand ups with each delivery team to share work schedules and resolve any resourcing conflicts.
- Owning agency resourcing and forecasting capacity planning across the agency using our internal scheduling system, Float.
- Working closely with the Growth Operations Director on scoping and resourcing New Business.
- Highlighting any pinch points in forecasted resourcing to recommend if freelance resource is needed.
- Reporting and checking on Timesheets weekly and chasing up where necessary.
- Management reporting on agency capacity, staff delivery and budgeting.
- Owning and being responsible for the setting up and onboarding of new clients internally on all systems (resourcing, Project management, Client portals).
- Owning special projects to develop new processes and support the efficiency of communications and delivery across the agency as and when required.

**You’ll do great if you combine the following experience and attributes**:

- Excellent mediation and communication skills.
- A calm presence.
- Good organizational and planning skills.
- Good knowledge of the steps required for delivery of creative digital marketing campaigns.
- Experience of working in a fast paced digital agency environment, preferably in a delivery or operations role.
- Experience using Resourcing software such as Float, 10kft or Forecast is desirable.
- Experience using Project Management software such as Asana or Notion would be beneficial but not essential.
- High Emotional IQ, ability to deliver tough feedback in a constructive manner.
- Team player, propensity to make decisions that are for the good of the group - we’re in it together.
- Owning it, Whether it’s something you're really proud of or something you’d rather forget (we all make mistakes). We want to be a place where we win together, lose together - and that starts with each of us taking responsibility for delivering the best we can. All-day. Every day.
