The Role.
We are looking for an innovative thinker and organized doer to oversee and optimize our internal operation. What does that mean? We have world-class talent in multiple studios (i.e. strategy, brand, data analytics, and technology) working on multiple projects for multiple clients simultaneously and your job is to man the control tower and manage our resource allocation, management and efficiency. In order to do so, you live in the epicenter of our world, collaborating with studio directors and sales/business development to keep a finger on the rapid pulse of our business.
In addition to managing and coordinating the who, what, when and for how long of each client initiative, you are tasked with identifying opportunities for efficiencies and improving functions across our multidimensional company.
A little more about us: Mabbly is a strategic design agency powered by data analytics, market research, and digital technologies. Each day, we craft human connections through digital experiences that unlock the business potential of mid-enterprise clients to accelerate growth and their vision for tomorrow. Our skilled resources develop world-class brand experiences that grow companies.
We aren’t perfect and don’t expect you to be either. The day-to-day at Mabbly is replete with change and our breadth of unique skills and experience enables us to prepare for the unexpected. It takes a high level of inspiration and self-education to be a part of our growing tribe.
