Senior Production Security Manager, EU/AF, Studios Protective Services

Are you a strategic security leader ready to define and scale production security standards across two continents? Amazon MGM Studios is seeking a Senior Production Security Regional Manager for Europe and Africa who combines deep expertise in physical risk management, risk forecasting, and risk mitigation with the strategic vision to transform how we protect global film and television productions. This role requires someone who operates with minimal governance, sets vision for strategically important initiatives, and works across multiple organizations to own programs and complex solution strategies that meet executive scrutiny.

You will apply deep understanding of physical risk management, risk forecasting, and mitigation methodologies to production security—designing scalable frameworks, engaging internal and external stakeholders, and driving continuous improvement of our security posture across Europe and Africa. The ideal candidate brings extensive experience in security risk management roles, with expertise that spans multiple complex environments and the ability to translate complex regulatory and industry requirements into actionable production security strategies.

You must be able to advise Directors and VPs, serve as a tie-breaker on critical security decisions, and create collaborative solutions with regulators, law enforcement, and industry bodies that elevate our security standards. The Senior Production Security Regional Manager defines and scales professional security services across Amazon MGM Studios productions throughout Europe and Africa.

Key job responsibilities:

• Own programs and complex solution strategies across organizations that meet executive scrutiny, advising Directors and VPs on physical risk management and mitigation strategies.
• Build consensus and secure commitments across Amazon MGM Studios, Amazon Security, legal, and regional production teams to drive unified security approaches.
• Influence external industry and regulatory leaders through force-multiplication—shaping entertainment security norms, standards, and best practices across Europe and Africa.

Execution and Expertise:

• Design, test, and inspect scalable risk management frameworks for production environments, handling significantly complex problems and escalations.
• Apply deep expertise across multiple physical risk domains (threat assessment, venue and location security, personnel protection, asset security) to create unified production security standards.
• Develop and implement comprehensive threat assessment and risk forecasting methodologies tailored to production environments across diverse European and African jurisdictions.
• Define business strategy for regional production security, establishing new operational models and risk mitigation standards that account for varying threat landscapes.
• Drive impact across 2-3 production security domains (physical risk management, threat forecasting, asset and personnel protection) and multiple regions.

A day in the life:

Every day presents unique strategic challenges when securing Studio productions across Europe and Africa, requiring innovative approaches to adapt risk management frameworks as productions evolve. As a Senior Production Security Regional Manager, you will shape how we anticipate and respond to dynamic changes driven by creative direction, competing business priorities, shifting threat landscapes, and evolving global conditions.
