* Guard the P&L – build and manage estimates, budgets and forecasts; keep margin healthy and billing flawless.
* Champion continuous improvement – run retrospectives, embed learnings and raise the bar for quality.
* Grow people and culture – model Courage, Curiosity, Craft and Collaboration; mentor talent and spark knowledge sharing across Strategy, Creative, Media and Tech.
* Fly the AFFINITY flag – network, speak, write and generally make noise that attracts new clients and talent.
About you

* Digitally fluent – comfortable across martech, analytics and modern production workflows.
* Calm, solutions-first mindset and a knack for cutting through complexity.
