A successful candidate will be able to quickly diagnose issues with orders, digital campaign & print performance, monitor late or missing ads, recommend campaign/print changes, and communicate changes to clients. The Team Lead will still be responsible for order fulfillment; however, this workload will be reduced to accommodate the additional Team Lead responsibilities.
