Role Overview

We are looking for an experienced Senior Project Manager for Brand & Retail Activations to strengthen our client partnerships and ensure structured delivery across complex brand and retail-driven projects.

This role focuses on:

• Owning day-to-day client communication
• Translating brand objectives into clear internal briefs
• Keeping projects organised, aligned and moving forward
• Budgeting, capacity planning and timeline control
• Leading and aligning cross-functional creative teams to ensure consistent brand execution

This role is ideal for someone experienced in brand or event agencies who thrives in clarity, structure and collaboration. This is not a spatial design or production lead role. You are the structured bridge between client and agency team.

Key Responsibilities

Client & Brand Management

• Be the primary day-to-day contact for assigned clients
• Understand client objectives and translate them into actionable internal briefs
• Ensure alignment between client expectations and agency output
• Prepare meeting agendas, follow-ups, and presentations
• Maintain a strong understanding of brand positioning and retail context across projects
• Act as a structured and reliable partner to both client and internal teams

Project Coordination

• Support project leads in planning timelines and deliverables
• Track progress across creative, spatial, and production teams
• Ensure internal teams have the information they need
• Anticipate bottlenecks and flag risks early
• Maintain clear documentation and structured communication across departments

Financial Oversight

• Create budgets and support cost monitoring
• Assist with scope management and change requests
• Prepare cost overviews and status updates
• Maintain budget transparency and support capacity planning

Pitches & Growth

• Support proposal development and presentations
• Help maintain long-term client relationships
• Identify opportunities for account growth
• Contribute structured input during pitch processes and early project scoping

Skills & Experiences

• 5–8+ years of experience in project management within a creative, brand, retail, or event agency
• Strong client communication skills and confidence in structured stakeholder management
• Solid understanding of brand-driven and experiential projects, ideally within retail or activation environments
• Comfortable working alongside creative, spatial, and production teams
• Experience tracking budgets, scopes, and timelines
• Structured, reliable, and detail-oriented mindset
• Calm under pressure and solution-focused
• Fluent in English (German a plus)

Nice to have:

• Experience in spatial or retail activation projects
• Familiarity with project management and AI productivity tools
  

What We Offer

• Work on high-visibility brand and retail activation projects for international clients
• Real ownership within complex, consumer-facing experiences, not just internal coordination
• Close collaboration with creative, spatial, and production teams in a multidisciplinary setup
• A professional, structured, and ego-free culture that values clarity and reliability
• Direct involvement in projects that are physically built, launched, and experienced by real audiences
