• Take charge of organizing internal and client meetings/calls; practice active listening, share clear agendas beforehand, and consistently distribute accurate meeting recaps and reports immediately afterward.
• Your responsibilities will also extend to responding to generic requests related to our production scope. This may include material requests, collating information needed for client reports and presentations or providing administrative support to the team as required.
