• Delivery: we execute with excellence and achieve great results
• Future: we think and act for the long term

The Role

The Traffic & Workflow Lead, the official title for this role, is responsible for driving the planning and delivery discipline that enables SEEK’s in-house creative agency to deliver high-quality creative and content at scale across APAC. Acting as a senior connection point between Creative, Marketing and business stakeholders, this role reviews the briefs that come into the in-house agency to ensure they are high quality and allocates them to relevant resources in the creative team.

With a bird’s-eye view across the agency, the Traffic Operations and Workflow Lead provides visibility of capacity, workflows, resourcing and scheduling across multiple concurrent projects and campaigns. The role ensures creative and video production teams are set up to deliver efficiently, on time and at scale, while balancing business priorities with team capability and capacity.

Working closely with Creative Services, Video Production, Creative Operations and external agency partners, the role leads operational planning for major campaigns and multi-market activity, ensuring teams have the structure, tools and support to deliver efficiently. The role proactively identifies bottlenecks, delivery risks, improves workflow efficiency and enables creatives to spend more time focused on creative thinking and craft, not administration.

This role plays a critical part in connecting strategy to execution, enabling creative teams to focus on high-value work while ensuring the agency is commercially responsible, operationally connected and continuously improving.

The Team

The Creative & Content Operations team ensures the in-house agency delivers highly effective creative and content at scale. It supports the teams to deliver a high volume of work, in a timely manner, to meet the requirements of our APAC marketing strategies. It enables the creative and video teams to focus on high-value creative work by removing any friction and implementing tooling while providing clear prioritisation, alignment with the business, and visibility of work across markets.

The Traffic & Workflow Lead sits at the centre of this operation — acting as the critical, connective point between business demand, team capacity and delivery execution.
