About the Role

The Solutions Group at WPP Media is seeking a Senior Associate, Workflow & Automation to connect technology platforms, operational workflows, and agency teams.

This role focuses on Tier 2 platform support and incident leadership, systems integration, and business analysis. Rather than developing standalone codebases or building platforms from the ground up, the Senior Analyst will support the reliability, efficiency, and accuracy of an integrated ecosystem spanning agency workflows, AI and automation capabilities, and enterprise systems.

This is an internal-facing role supporting teams across all WPP Media agency brands serving the US client roster. The position does not include direct external client-facing responsibilities.

Key Responsibilities

Tier 2 Platform Support & Incident Leadership
Serve as the primary escalation point for complex technical and workflow issues requiring support beyond initial operational triage.
Investigate root causes across interconnected systems, reproduce technical defects, and assess business impact and urgency.
Partner with engineering and product teams to coordinate defect resolution and system enhancements, managing issues through closure.
System Integrations & Workflow Analysis
Develop a comprehensive understanding of how internal AI and automation tools integrate with external and enterprise platforms.
Translate operational challenges into clearly defined technical requirements and actionable workflow recommendations.
Collaborate with account teams to review existing procedures and implement more efficient, automated handoffs across platforms.
Data Integrity & Pipeline Orchestration
Proactively monitor data flows between core platforms to support accurate and timely pipeline execution.
Identify, isolate, and resolve data discrepancies, synchronization failures, and formatting inconsistencies before they disrupt campaign operations.
Conduct data validation routines and audits to maintain consistency across interconnected tools.
Enablement, Documentation & Training
Create and maintain clear, accessible process documentation, standard operating procedures (SOPs), system architecture diagrams, and release notes in Confluence.
Develop and lead training sessions for internal agency stakeholders on platform changes, new features, and recommended workflows.
Promote adoption of standardized workflows and automation capabilities across agency teams.
