LOOP is a digital-first lead agency, exploring the intersections between design, technology and digital brand building for leading brands. With a team of 400 digital talents and through data driven marketing, we help brave clients to stand out in the digital age. Over the last few years our brilliant team has done remarkable and innovative work for internationally recognised high-profile brands such as Puma, Audi, Breitling, Red Bull and numerous others.

At LOOP, we believe great creative work is only as strong as the production behind it. We’re looking for a Senior Project Manager with a strong agency background and hands-on experience managing complex, production-heavy projects, ideally within the sports industry. Someone who thrives on structure, takes ownership, and knows how to turn ambitious creative ideas into flawlessly executed productions. 

You’ll be at the heart of our projects, connecting clients, creatives, producers, and external partners to make things happen. From shaping strategic and creative processes to building timelines, managing budgets, and coordinating production, you’ll bring clarity, control, and momentum to every stage of the process. A genuine passion for sports, particularly Football and Handball, and a strong understanding of the industry are essential. 

Requirements

• Own the Production Process: Take hands-on responsibility for managing projects from initial briefing and planning through production, delivery, and final wrap-up. 
• Manage Strategic and Creative Processes: From briefing to internal resource coordination, timelines, quality control and presentations – you know what it takes to add value at every step of the process and have experience managing creative projects and strategy work. 
• Plan with Precision: Build and maintain detailed project timelines, production schedules, budget plans, and resource allocations, ensuring every moving part stays on track. 
• Manage Budgets & Spreadsheets: Own project budgets, cost estimates, purchase orders, and financial tracking, keeping a close eye on costs, changes, and profitability. 
• Coordinate Every Detail: Manage the day-to-day coordination of productions, aligning internal teams, freelancers, suppliers, production partners, and other stakeholders to ensure smooth execution. 
• Lead Client Communication: Act as a key point of contact for clients, confidently managing expectations, communicating progress, handling feedback, and proactively addressing challenges. 
• Bring Structure to Complexity: Keep projects organised and transparent through clear documentation, detailed tracking, and structured workflows, while staying hands-on and solution-oriented when things get busy. 
• Understand the Sports Landscape: Bring relevant agency experience and a strong understanding of sports brands, campaigns, and productions, with a particular interest in Football and Handball and the ability to navigate the fast-paced nature, specific demands, cultures, and audiences of the sports industry. 

Benefits

• 4-day Workweek: At LOOP you can choose between a 5-day or a 4-day workweek after one year with us – and have the freedom to switch between these models twice a year.
• Free Sports and Fitness: Yoga, fitness, climbing, tennis and more. LOOP covers the costs and gives you access to fitness studios and sports facilities across Austria or Germany.
• +20% Vacation: We don’t believe there can be enough time to recharge, that’s why all our team members get +20% vacation days per year, we call it Sunny Hours.
• 4000+ m² Office Space: Our loft space is part of our identity. An ideal environment for working, collaborating and finding inspiration — with an additional 600m² film- and photo studio.
• 100% Hybrid Work: Home office or LOOP office space? It’s your choice every day, and you don’t even need approval.
• International and Diverse: Team members from 40+ different nationalities in 7 locations, English as main language and a 55% female leadership quota.
• And much more: Language Courses, Visa Support, LOOP.Horizon workshops and trainings, Klimaticket Contribution, Audiobook Library, Headspace App Subscription, etc.

At LOOP, we believe great work deserves fair pay — and that transparency builds trust. For this role, the gross annual starting salary (full-time, based in Austria) is EUR 48,000. That’s our baseline for candidates who meet the key requirements. If you bring more to the table — deeper experience, sharper skills — we’re ready to reflect that in your offer. Our internal compensation framework is designed to keep things fair, structured, and clear.
