Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner closely with Project Managers and Creative Directors to navigate project lifecycles, troubleshoot delivery bottlenecks, and ensure 100% alignment with briefs.
Team Leadership: Stay at the forefront of QA best practices and industry tools, implementing new methodologies to improve speed-to-market without sacrificing quality.

8+ years of experience in Creative QA or a related production role (Agency experience is highly preferred).
Editorial Excellence: Mastery of AP grammar styles and a "hawk-eye" for proofreading.
Analytical Rigor: The ability to analyze complex project briefs and identify potential layout or technical issues before they reach the final delivery stage.
Communication Mastery: Strong verbal and written skills, with the ability to provide direct, actionable feedback to creative teams in a collaborative manner.
Adaptability: Proven success managing high-volume workloads and multiple workstreams simultaneously under rigorous deadlines.
Technical Savvy: High proficiency in Google Suite, Microsoft Office, and cloud-based storage systems (Dropbox/Drive).

Expertise in Project Management software (e.g., Asana, Monday.com, or Jira).

A background in Performance Marketing, understanding the nuances of high-converting creative.
