Bumble's Creative Studio is at an exciting inflection point. We're growing rapidly, supporting Bumble Inc.'s portfolio of apps globally, and we want this momentum to continue. As part of this expansion, we're looking to hire a Creative Project Manager to be an integral part of our growing team, working on global projects and across time zones.
In this role within the Creative Studio, you'll be the connective tissue between creative output and the wider business, keeping projects moving from brief through to delivery. You'll be part of a full-service, in-house, geographically diverse creative team of designers, art directors, copywriters, video editors and producers who work hand-in-hand with external production and agency partners.
The Creative Project Manager is an organized, proactive, and highly collaborative individual who thrives in a fast-paced, creative environment. You'll be confident working directly with marketing stakeholders, curious about creative work across every channel, and passionate about helping a world-class creative team do their best work.
Your project scope will span a broad range of creative output, from social content, CRM, experiential and beyond.
This role is based in the US, reporting to the Associate Director of Creative Operations in the UK.
