• Be on the ground: Supervise shoots, coordinate with production houses, directors, crew and other partners, and ensure everything runs as planned.
• Get the best out of every budget: Manage production costs, negotiate with vendors and find smart, productive ways to bring creative ideas to life without compromising on quality.

What We're Looking For:
• 6
- 8 years of hands-on experience in end-to-end production, covering both pre-production and post-production.
• Strong experience in advertising, films, branded content or an integrated production environment.
• A solid network across production houses, directors, filmmakers, vendors and the wider advertising and film industry.
• Practical experience in production planning, budgeting, shoot supervision, vendor negotiations and post-production management.
• Experience in creating AI-led video content and films, with an understanding of how AI can be used in real production workflows.
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills. This is non-negotiable. You should be equally comfortable working with clients, creative teams, production partners and senior stakeholders.
• Proven ability to lead a team, manage multiple projects and take complete ownership of delivery.
• Strong commercial understanding, problem-solving skills and the ability to make decisions under pressure.
• A hands-on mindset, an eye for quality and the ability to balance creative ambition with operational realities. Experience at an advertising agency or a competing integrated agency would be highly preferred, though we're open to meeting strong production professionals from other relevant backgrounds. The kind of person who'll thrive here: Someone who treats production like their own business. You know the right people, understand what it takes to get a film made, can manage a budget without losing sight of the idea, and don't need someone looking over your shoulder to get things done. You take ownership, back your team, stay curious about what's next in production, and believe that doing great work and having fun along the way aren't mutually exclusive.
