Senior Programme Manager

About the role

As the Senior Integrated Programme Manager for Verizon Business International, you will play a pivotal role in steering the end-to-end campaign workflow of the full Inter-Agency Team (IAT) across Europe and APAC. While you will sit within the Ogilvy team, you will act as a neutral, objective partner to both Verizon and the full agency ecosystem. Your core focus is not just the success of one agency, but the seamless performance and collective output of the entire inter-agency network on behalf of Verizon-spanning all partners in creative, media, organic social, web, and sales enablement. You will be the operational glue: setting unified standards, driving consistency, and establishing a culture of collaboration across Verizon and all partner agencies. Your organised approach, diplomatic communication, and meticulous attention to detail will be instrumental in navigating complex multi-agency dynamics and keeping the overarching programme objectives firmly in focus. This is a prominent, client-facing role where you will act as Verizon's trusted, day-to-day point person for workflow, timelines, and delivery. To set you up for success, you will have direct support and mentorship from our Ogilvy Operations Lead and Client Lead as well as Verizon leaders, who will partner with you on high-level strategic decisions, cross-team alignment, and escalation management. About Verizon Business Verizon Business is a global leader in next-generation communications, security, and collaborative technology. Powering 99% of the Fortune 500, Verizon helps the world's most prominent enterprises, governments, and medium-sized businesses navigate their digital transformation journeys. The Verizon Business International team is responsible for driving growth, brand awareness, reputation, and consideration across Europe and the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region. Our work focuses on demonstrating how Verizon's cutting-edge portfolio helps international enterprises connect, scale, and innovate in a rapidly changing world. This is a fast-paced marketing environment operating at a truly global scale.
