About the Company
We're working with a highly regarded independent agency, to find an exceptional Freelance Project Director for a major brand transformation and launch programme.
This is an opportunity to lead one of the most significant B2B brand relaunches happening in the UK this year. Following a complete strategic repositioning and the development of a new market proposition, our client is preparing to launch a major integrated campaign that will redefine how their client is perceived in the market.
Description
Working as an extension of the agency team, you will take ownership of the end-to-end delivery of a large-scale, integrated campaign spanning creative, production, media and talent partnerships.
This is a complex, fast-moving programme with a fixed launch deadline and significant commercial visibility. You'll be working directly with senior client stakeholders, agency partners and production teams to ensure every element lands successfully.
