• Partner closely with Creative, Content, Brand, Media, Community Management, and external agencies to ensure alignment and execution readiness.
• Act as a key operational point of contact for assigned initiatives, building strong relationships and maintaining clear communication across stakeholders.
• Navigate multiple rounds of stakeholder feedback, consolidate input, and drive timely decisions to keep projects moving forward.
• Proactively identify and manage risks, dependencies, shifting priorities, and resource constraints, escalating when needed and recommending solutions.
• Ensure content aligns with approved creative direction, brand requirements, platform best practices, and delivery specifications.
• Maintain visibility into project status, timelines, deliverables, and next steps, ensuring teams are aligned and accountable.
• Identify opportunities to streamline workflows, improve collaboration, and create greater efficiencies across content operations.
• Partner with Planning & Insights teams to support content tagging, performance tracking, and reporting requirements.

What you'll need

• 3–5+ years of experience in social content management, creative operations, project management, marketing operations, or a related field.
• Experience managing social content production and delivery across multiple brands, campaigns, or business portfolios.
• Strong understanding of social media platforms, content formats, production processes, and creative best practices.
• Exceptional project management, organization, and prioritization skills, with the ability to manage multiple projects and competing deadlines.
• Strong stakeholder management skills, including the ability to navigate complex feedback, manage expectations, and build alignment across teams.
• Experience collaborating with cross-functional teams, including creative, brand marketing, media, production, and agency partners.
• A proactive, solutions-oriented mindset with the confidence to drive projects forward independently and escalate challenges appropriately.
• Excellent communication skills, attention to detail, and a commitment to executional excellence.
• Experience using project management, workflow, or content operations tools.
• Post-secondary education in marketing, communications, business, media, or a related field.

Nice to Have

• Experience working within a large enterprise, retail, CPG, or multi-banner organization.
• Experience managing high-volume, always-on social content alongside larger campaigns and business initiatives.
• Familiarity with content measurement, tagging, and performance reporting.
• Knowledge of digital asset management systems, content management platforms, or workflow tools.
• Experience contributing to process improvements that support more efficient content delivery.
