Client Operations Lead

What You'll Do

• Own the successful delivery of projects across your book of accounts, from kickoff through completion
• Build strong, trust-based relationships with clients and act as a strategic partner in helping them achieve their goals
• Proactively surface opportunities, risks, or gaps to clients before they become problems, acting as a calm, solutions-oriented voice in complex moments
• Lead cross-functional teams spanning strategy, content, design, paid media, and web development — ensuring clarity, alignment, and accountability at every step
• Be an advocate for both the client and the team, balancing empathy with accountability to drive healthy, long-term relationships
• Create and maintain structured project plans, timelines, and trackers that help everyone stay focused and informed
• Lead recurring client meetings with clarity and confidence, keeping communication proactive and expectations realistic
• Ensure on-time delivery of all work — and when timelines shift, reset expectations thoughtfully with both clients and internal teams
• Gather client inputs, approvals, and feedback efficiently, minimizing blockers and keeping momentum up
• Communicate actively and transparently with internal teams and clients in real time (primarily via Slack and Zoom)
• Review deliverables for accuracy, alignment with objectives, and overall quality before they reach the client
• Track project goals and ensure measurable progress toward client outcomes and overall success
