- Drive complex initiatives with advanced project management, clear communication, and polished presentations that align technical and business stakeholders.
- Facilitate inclusive group problem-solving that unblocks decisions and nurtures shared ownership.
- Work fluently within PMG’s Alli platform to craft client‑ready solutions and measurable outcomes.
- A commitment to curiosity and adaptability as a Continual Learner, staying at the forefront of media innovation while prioritizing client success with a Customer-Focused mindset that seeks opportunities to deliver meaningful value.
