JOB PURPOSE
This role designs the operational methodologies, frameworks, templates, and enablement resources that make the audit deliverable consistent, scalable, and repeatable across multiple clients. The focus is on process, scope creation and standardization within marketing agency-like environments—not executing individual audits.

- Scope
- Methodology
- Inputs (e.g. templates and interview guides)
- Outputs (e.g. executive presentation templates, findings frameworks, recommendation structures)
- Create repeatable workflows and quality standards for conducting operational & creative audits within agency-like environments, from intake through delivery with a focus on operational excellence
- Gather inputs from and collaborate closely with agency craft leads (Design, Copy, Strategy, Tech) in defining craft-specific audit deliverables
- Collaborate closely with the Growth team in building out client-facing materials, including service descriptions, case examples, and engagement scoping tools
WHAT YOU BRING:
- In-depth expertise in Marketing agency operations and delivery processes; understands creative production workflows and team dynamics in an agency-like environment
- Outstanding communication skills with the ability to engage senior stakeholders; excellent presenter and documenter.
- Proven experience as a project/program manager assessing and establishing workflows and delivery systems in project-based environments.
- Demonstrated ability to assess complex operations and convert insights into actionable, scalable designs.
- Ability to translate practitioner knowledge into documented, scalable processes.
- Strong frameworks and systems design thinking with a service design mindset.
- Experience building repeatable service offerings or consulting methodologies is a plus.
