People operations in practice
How people operations work in client service teams
Teams are built project by project
Consultants, account leads, and creatives move between client work faster than roles get updated on paper.
Headcount is a mix, not a single line
Full-time staff, contractors, and freelancers often work side by side on the same engagement, with different access needs and different working patterns.
Client trust extends to how you operate internally
Clients don’t just judge the deliverable anymore. Increasingly, they ask what tools – and what AI – you use to handle their data.
