• Leading complex, multi-channel campaigns from concept to delivery, ensuring they're on time, on budget, and exceed client expectations across all platforms.
• Strategically managing resources and workflows for diverse integrated projects, making sure the right talent is on the right task.
• Mentoring and guiding junior and mid-level producers, sharing your expertise to help them develop and grow their skills in integrated production.
• Driving process innovation, identifying opportunities to enhance efficiency and quality across our integrated production pipelines.
• Fostering strong client relationships, acting as a senior partner and ensuring clear communication and strategic alignment on all projects.

To succeed in the role, you will:

• Demonstrate extensive experience (5+ years) leading complex integrated production projects across various channels (digital, print, moving image, and experiential platforms).
• Possess a strategic mindset with a proven ability to optimise workflows, manage resources creatively, and drive operational excellence at scale.
• Exhibit exceptional leadership and mentorship skills, with a genuine passion for developing talent and building high-performing teams.
• Be a proactive problem-solver and an advocate for continuous improvement, always seeking innovative solutions.
• Have strong financial acumen and experience managing budgets across complex integrated scopes.
• Proven ability to source, vet, and manage external freelancers, ensuring seamless integration and quality output.

You'll work with:

• Our Brand & Creative Agency Director to define and execute the future vision for the production department.
• Head of Creative and Creative Lead to translate ambitious ideas into actionable, integrated production plans.
• Cross-functional teams, including strategy, client services, digital, and content specialists, to ensure seamless project delivery.
• External vendors and partners, cultivating strong relationships to bring diverse production needs to life, including a network of top-tier freelancers.

• A proven track record as a Senior Producer (or equivalent) in an agency or in-house team, with a portfolio showcasing complex, multi-channel integrated campaigns.
• Demonstrable experience in team leadership, mentorship, and contributing to the strategic direction of a production department.
