Job : Freelance Senior Project Manager - Pharma

The ideal candidate must have experience working on recurring/campaign-flighted work (paid media launches, always-on social listening, weekly/monthly reporting) instead of the linear concept → creative → MLR route → release lifecycle. Please understand that distinction is the single biggest differentiator for this immediate freelance role.
