Marketing Project Manager

ABOUT THE ROLE At North Actionsports Group, home to iconic watersports brands like North Kiteboarding, North Foils, North Windsurfing, and Mystic, we’re driven by a passion for innovation, performance, and adventure. To keep our brand storytelling strong and consistent across the world, we’re looking for a Marketing Project Manager to join our team. As Marketing Project Manager, you’ll be the operational heartbeat of the Marketing team, ensuring that ideas turn into beautifully executed campaigns, delivered on time, on brand and on budget. You’ll work cross-functionally with Product, E-commerce, Sales, B2B, Creative, and Social teams to align timelines, manage deliverables, and keep every project running smoothly from initial brief through launch and beyond. This role is perfect for a hyper-organized multitasker who loves fast-paced environments, thrives on collaboration, and has an authentic passion for action sports. KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

Campaign Planning & Execution:

• Lead the planning, coordination, and rollout of 360° seasonal product launch campaigns.
• Manage cross-functional creative workflows (content, graphic design, video, social) to ensure all assets are delivered on time and on brand.
• Create and maintain campaign calendars, critical paths and production schedules, ensuring all timelines are respected, milestones met and delays proactively addressed.

Establish go-to-market launch timelines and ensure all touchpoints (web, social, retail, trade, B2B) align with the launch date.

Project Management & Cross-Team Coordination:

• Facilitate information flow between teams to guarantee all launch touchpoints and stakeholders are prepared and aligned.
• Establish and maintain effective processes and work-flows: document scopes, deliverables, timelines, dependencies and post-launch reviews.
• Lead cross-departmental check-ins and ensure teams are briefed, resourced and prioritised appropriately.

Media & PR Support:

• Coordinate with Media and PR teams to share assets, confirm release timings, and support editorial/global partner outreach.
• Ensure consistent messaging, launch timing and coordination across all external channels and ambassador initiatives.

Product Information & Asset Management:

• Work with the Product team to verify that all technical information, visuals and packaging details are accurate, consistent and ready ahead of deadlines.
• Maintain up-to-date product information across systems and ensure supporting materials (sales kits, trade visuals, dealer tools) are organized and accessible.

Performance & Optimization:

• Track campaign performance, gather insights and prepare reports for internal teams.
• Evaluate on-time delivery metrics, budget performance and resource utilisation.
• Identify bottlenecks, propose process improvements and strengthen workflow efficiency, especially focusing on timeline adherence and launch readiness.

Problem Solving & Innovation:

• Proactively identify potential roadblocks, particularly those that threaten timeline or budget, and provide clear, resourceful solutions.
• Champion continuous improvement: evaluate existing processes and implement enhancements (for example utilising AI tools or workflow automation) to increase agility and on-time performance.
• Own the campaign timeline-process from brief through launch and post-launch review: you are the “owner” of the schedule and key deliverables.
