Production Tax Credit Manager

At OKRP we put the soul in the sale for our clients. In an industry that so often asks its leaders to separate brand from sales, we disagree. OKRP creates solutions that deliver sustained success without asking clients to wait and see. How? We stick to five key rules: 1. Creativity lives in the soul, not an ego. 2. Act on feeling - grounded in thought. 3. Be nimble, quick and prolific: Explore Everything. 4. Diversity defines the creative process. 5. The agency is an agent, not owner, of the idea.
