We are a global collective who live and breathe digital, working with some of the boldest brands in the world to capitalize on the complexity that defines the modern marketing landscape.
Role OverviewAre you the one in your group who always takes the lead in planning? Do you thrive on logistics, love ticking off checklists, and always think two steps ahead? If so, you could be the perfect fit for the Production Coordinator role at Engage.
We’re looking for a highly organized, proactive individual to join our production team, coordinating a variety of shoots, post‑production edits and schedules across a diverse range of sporting clients. One day you might be arranging filming at a stables for our equestrian partners, and the next, sending a producer to the Middle East for an esports tournament.
The position requires a highly organized individual with experience working in either TV or digital/social media and great knowledge of how film shoots work logistically. You will be responsible for taking a filming brief and ensuring our crew have all the camera and production equipment they require, as well as arranging all travel, risk assessments, logistics and budget management. You will be working across our range of sporting clients, so a passion and knowledge of sport is desirable, as well as experience planning production schedules.
Strong people skills and the ability to multitask are necessary. The ideal candidate will be approachable, calm under pressure and will also be thinking one or two steps ahead to ensure our film crews can concentrate on creating engaging content. Filming and post‑production edits will vary in scale, so we need someone who will leave no detail to chance and make sure all shoots & workflows are planned comprehensively.
Most importantly, you’ll need experience of managing crews and being that central point of contact they can rely on.
