Senior Art Business Operations Lead - US

About this role

The Senior Art Business Operations Lead is a delivery-fluent, Business Development (BD)-embedded operations leader responsible for creating and maintaining an accurate operating view of art services capacity, utilization, active work, project wind-downs, and forecasted availability across Create. Initially focused on North American art studios, the role will expand to other regions and co-development in art resources. It will provide business development, studio leadership, and Create leadership with the visibility needed to understand where work can be placed, where additional demand is needed, which skills are becoming available, and where communication or planning gaps may create revenue, staffing, or delivery risk. The role will primarily focus on internal transparency, fostering trust, and establishing a clear operating cadence. As that foundation matures, the role will balance its focus between internal operating needs and external partner support across multiple accounts, including RFP responses, staffing and timing questions, partner-facing capability discussions, and production-level coordination. The role is not assigned to a single partner and is not the account owner, studio resource manager, or day-to-day producer - it is responsible for cross-studio visibility, demand/supply alignment, communication, early risk and opportunity identification, and escalation.Reporting / LocationReports to: VP, Business Development (Create NA)Location: Remote (preferred North America), with regular overlap with global teamsTravel: Periodic travel to partner sites, Keywords studios, and industry events as needed
