• Serve as the operational link between creative direction and AI production — translating art director intent into actionable briefs and ensuring feedback drives short, productive revision cycles.
• Facilitate review and approval workflows — coordinating sessions, consolidating notes, and tracking approval status across all active projects.
• Manage GenAI artist capacity — monitoring workloads and flagging resource needs proactively.
• Own the delivery pipeline — managing file organization, QC checkpoints, and final handoff.
• Track throughput and delivery performance data to continuously improve program quality.

What you'll bring:

• Strong working knowledge of Generative AI image workflows — enough to brief artists accurately, assess output quality, and identify production friction.
• Advanced Airtable proficiency for project tracking, workload management, and leadership-facing dashboards.
• Strong creative literacy — able to read a brief, assess whether AI output is meeting it, and communicate the gap in specific, actionable terms.
• Clear, proactive communicator who surfaces risks early and keeps all stakeholders accurately informed.
• Experience with e-commerce or retail site imagery production and managing freelance creative talent preferred.
