Creative Project Coordinator

Company:

Oliver Wyman

Description:

Oliver Wyman, a Marsh (NYSE: MRSH) business, is a management consulting firm driven by deep industry insight, bold innovation, and a collaborative approach that cuts through complexity to help organizations navigate their most defining transformative moments.

Job Overview:

You will plan, resource, and operationally drive creative projects end-to-end, ensuring requests are delivered reliably and represent the firm consistently. You act as the studio’s operational front door: translating briefs into scope and timelines, coordinating resources, enforcing process and quality standards, and partnering with stakeholders to deliver right-first-time outcomes. In addition, when required you will triage and prioritise incoming work, manage the studio’s workflow and capacity, and act as a central communications point to ensure resources are allocated effectively and deadlines are consistently met.

Key Responsibilities:

• Intake and scoping: capture objectives, audiences, constraints and success metrics at intake; work with function leads to propose a realistic scope, timeline, and resource plan, and prioritise requests against business needs.

• Project planning and tracking: build detailed project plans with milestones, owners and dependencies; maintain status updates, risk logs and contingency steps; proactively surface blockers and mitigation options.

• Triage and prioritisation: assess incoming projects for alignment with business priorities and available capacity; flag and escalate conflicts in priority with clear rationale and options.

• Resource and capacity management: align the right skillsets to project needs, monitor utilisation across studio teams, and recommend reallocations to avoid recurring fire‑drills; collaborate with team leads to resolve resource bottlenecks and maintain smooth production schedules.

• Workflow stewardship and optimisation: ensure consistent use of intake systems, templates, version control and file hygiene; continually evaluate and refine resource management and workflow systems to reduce lead time and create predictable outcomes.

• Stakeholder partnership and service: act as the primary point of contact for stakeholders; explain trade-offs, offer clear options (for example, “two ways to approach this”), and manage expectations with empathy and professionalism; keep all stakeholders informed of priorities and progress.

• Production coordination: monitor project timelines and ensure tasks meet deadlines and quality standards; coordinate with stakeholders to address capacity challenges and maintain production continuity.

• Brand positioning and quality assurance: position work to represent the firm authentically and consistently; use standard approaches first and escalate custom treatments intentionally for approval; coordinate final checks focused on alignment to brief and client outcomes.

• Responsible use of tools and AI: leverage productivity and AI tools to improve planning and efficiency while adhering to ethical, legal and brand guardrails.
