Important:

Pune only

Position

Location: Pune

CTC: Rs. 4.5-5.5 lacs

About the role:

Once the order is in, you take over. You are the end-to-end project manager beyond this point; hence, ownership is paramount. You are driving the brief and ensuring it is delivered as promised within timelines. Hence, you are the link between the client and our creator team. In popular parlance, this is called client-servicing. However, at WB, we believe that it will also need to have an editorial and research-oriented bent of mind for you to understand briefs.

Translate client requirements to the creator and guide and coach the creators to perform their best. Once they have created the content, you need to provide them with feedback, check if the delivery is as per the brief and non-plagiarised, the tonality, grammar, language, etc. is in place, monitor the progress of the project and provide regular updates to the client so that the project is completed on time and meets all requirements.

In case of a crisis ( of course, they happen) or perhaps to satisfy your creative urges, whatever it is, this role will also require you to write occasionally.
