About this role
WPP Production's Account Director - Content & Design role centers on managing the localization and production of digital content at scale across global markets. You'll lead a team of Project Managers while overseeing day-to-day content operations—from coordinating with creative and cross-functional teams to sourcing, reviewing, and approving imagery and assets for product launches and marketing initiatives. The work involves understanding cultural nuances across different geographies, identifying what content needs localization, and shepherding assets through production, retouching, and approval workflows until final delivery.
This position demands strong project management skills and the ability to juggle multiple concurrent launches in a fast-moving environment. You'll need to communicate effectively across internal teams (Creative Directors, Business Affairs, CPMs, Digital Asset Managers) and external stakeholders, while also training and developing team members. Experience with content management systems, digital asset organization, and ideally some exposure to localization processes would serve you well. The role is based in Mumbai and requires in-office presence around four days per week.
If you thrive in collaborative, detail-oriented environments and have managed teams through complex, multi-stakeholder projects—particularly those involving creative or production workflows—this could be a strong fit. You'd be working within WPP's global production network on high-impact brand content, with exposure to diverse projects across apps, music, entertainment, and digital platforms.
