About the Role

TRM Labs is looking for a Creative Operations Manager to help run and improve the day-to-day operations of its Brand Design team. This role sits within Marketing, reports to the Design Director, and partners closely with Regional Marketing, Demand Gen, Product Marketing, and Talent / People. The primary focus is managing the creative pipeline - from intake and briefing through prioritization, resourcing, review, and delivery - while also supporting localization workflows across global marketing assets. You’ll bring structure to a fast-moving creative environment, improve existing processes, and help the team work more efficiently without adding unnecessary complexity. What You’ll Do

• Own intake, tracking, prioritization, and resourcing for GTM and marketing design requests.
• Review creative briefs, identify missing information, and ensure work is ready for designers to execute.
• Assign work based on designer capacity, project needs, and timelines.
• Manage competing priorities and proactively flag risks, blockers, and bottlenecks.
• Maintain strong visibility into project status, creative capacity, files, documentation, and asset history.
• Partner closely with the Design Director while independently resolving day-to-day operational questions where possible.
• Help manage external creative vendors and contractors.
• Improve briefing, workflow, tracking, review, and documentation systems.
• Identify opportunities to use AI and automation to make creative operations faster and more scalable.
• Support localization workflows across global marketing assets, including translation coordination, review, QA, and vendor management.

What We’re Looking For

• 5+ years of experience in creative project management or creative operations, ideally within an agency, in-house creative studio, or brand/marketing team.
• Strong experience working directly with designers, creative teams, or in-house brand studios.
• Experience partnering with Marketing teams and managing creative work across campaigns, web, social, or other GTM channels.
• Strong project management and workflow-building skills, with experience improving existing processes.
• Demonstrated experience using AI or automation to improve operational workflows.
• Experience managing cross-functional stakeholders, priorities, vendors, and contractors.
• Some experience supporting or managing localization workflows for marketing or brand content.
• Working knowledge of creative and localization tools such as Figma, Adobe InDesign, Smartcat, or similar platforms.
• Strong attention to detail, communication skills, and comfort working asynchronously across time zones.
• High ownership and sound judgment; able to work independently, push back when needed, and keep work moving with minimal oversight.

About the Team

• TRM’s global Marketing team spans Brand Design, Product Marketing, Demand Gen, Regional Marketing, and Marketing Ops.
• The team works in a high-trust, async environment that values clarity, ownership, and thoughtful collaboration.
• This role requires consistent availability during 10am-2pm ET and flexibility to support occasional periods of increased project demand.

Why This Role Matters

• You’ll help keep TRM’s creative operation running smoothly as the company scales its global brand and marketing efforts.
• By improving how work is briefed, prioritized, assigned, localized, and delivered, you’ll give the creative team more space to focus on high-impact work while helping Marketing move faster and with greater consistency.
