Natalie Gruner

Associate Director of Project Management at Brafton

In her role as Senior Project Manager, Natalie is responsible for staying on top of client deliverables. She works closely with clients and internal creative teams to ensure that everything gets completed on time and the final products align with client standards. On any given day, Natalie spends a large chunk of her time managing tasks through Brafton’s project management system, running client calls and doing whatever she can to support her creative partners along the way.

In addition to being Brafton’s Germany-based project managing superstar, Natalie is also a well-versed traveler who’s always ready to embark on a new adventure.

While Natalie has officially been a part of the Brafton team for 2 years, she’s been working with CEO Tom Agnew for quite some time — 10 years, to be exact. Natalie started working for Brafton’s sister company Castleford Media when she was living in New Zealand.

When she first moved to the land of beautiful blue lakes, rolling hills and Hobbiton, Natalie started in a lead generation sales role. By the time Brafton acquired Castleford, she was the Head of Marketing and Operations. So when Brafton merged with Castleford, Natalie was happy to continue her career with the company and moved into a project manager role. But her growth didn’t stop there, as Natalie was named Senior Project Manager in 2021.
