In your most recent role you have:

• Successfully led website design and development projects of all sizes simultaneously from start to finish, coordinating between the client and a team of strategists, designers, and developers

• Collaborate with team members to come up with original concepts, scopes of work, and creative approaches to achieving client goals for new projects and proposals

Requirements

• Two to four years of client-facing digital/design/creative agency experience in a project or account management role
