Social Creative Producer

** Overview*
* At Microsoft, we are building a modern, AI-forward marketing organization that learns faster, activates smarter, and creates work that earns attention. The Commercial Creative and Production team develops advertising and social content that brings Microsoft's brand, products, and stories to life across platforms, formats, and audiences.

The  
** Social Creative Producer
** is an individual contributor who owns the production process for integrated advertising content and social-first creative. You will take assignments from brief through delivery, connecting creative ambition to clear scopes, schedules, budgets, partners, approvals, and production plans.

You will work comfortably as part of our in-house agency as a leader, collaborating with creative directors, in house creator teams, strategists, marketers, social leads, procurement, legal partners, external agencies, production companies, and post-production vendors. You know how strong creative is made and know who to bring to the table to get it done. You protect the idea while managing the practical details required to deliver it.

The role requires familiarity with line production and the full content-production lifecycle, including bidding, estimates, treatments, pre-production, crew and vendor coordination, shoot logistics, post-production, rights and clearances, versioning, and final delivery. You do not need to serve as the line producer on every assignment, but you understand the work well enough to evaluate plans, identify risks, and partner effectively with specialists.

Key outcomes include high-quality advertising and social content delivered on brief, on time, and within approved budget; production plans that match the creative opportunity and channel needs; clear communication and documentation; responsible management of partners and resources; and reusable production practices that help the team move faster without lowering the craft bar.

At Microsoft, our mission to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more guides how we partner with customers and one another. With a growth-mindset culture, we innovate responsibly, collaborate with care, and measure success through shared progress across people, teams, and customers.
