A dynamic, multi-tasking, visionary strategic thinker who’s skilled at making connections, acquiring new clients, and expanding TEAGUE’s brand. Your primary role is to articulate a long-term vision that emphasizes Connected Living as a core focus area of the Global Design Studio and establish a long and short-range business development strategy, market segmentation, revenue targets and the like with key internal leaders. In this role, you will evangelize Teague’s offerings to both current and prospective clients—promoting TEAGUE’s services, working with them to identify meaningful project opportunities and then collaborating with the in-house team to create competitive project proposals.
Energized by the prospect of developing fruitful collaborations and partnerships, you excel at creating connections, building relationships, and finding solutions that will help new clients attain their brand objectives.
In addition, you are adept at overseeing projects from concept through final deliverables, from finding innovative and customized solutions to client challenges to delivering projects on time and on budget. As a project manager, you not only ensure that TEAGUE creative arm runs like a Swiss watch—able to meet key deadlines, budgets, and goals for each fiscal year—but also feel prepared to blaze new trails and guide it into the future, driving constant improvement and shaping TEAGUE offerings to ensure they remain competitive in a rapidly evolving marketplace.
Finally, you’re endowed with the diplomatic and interpersonal skills of a head of state, able to forge strong relationships with both clients and colleagues from a diverse range of backgrounds, a strong communicator and negotiator, and gifted at balancing competing priorities and interests. If you’ve got a deep knowledge of international design culture, a sharp strategic mind, and the passion to help grow a leading creative agency, have we got a job for you.
