honestly go to account or strategy over that. pms, producers, and the like are scarce in agencies these days. meanwhile theres like 3-4 layers of account and strat on every project lol

No. There are so many looking for work right now. Every agency can only have one, maybe two of those. And there are like 10 agencies standing left lol…

Why such a big shift? Helps if you explain

Like someone else asked, why? What interests you about that role? Do you have project management skills? If so, try project manager, accounts or production. More jobs available in those. One of the first to go during layoffs is the creative resource manager.
