• Stay current on production partners that work with the agency’s model of being agile and cost effective, as well as delivering on creative excellence
• Ability to produce post production jobs when necessary.
• Communicate strongly and effectively with internal and client teams, when necessary, to drive status meetings, internal team prioritization decisions, and guide overall project timing.
• Create opportunities for emerging production talent within the production industry, understanding that diversity and inclusion is expected.

• 3+ years of experience in production, social experience a must
• Ability to operate with significant autonomy
• Ability to prioritize
