About the Role

What the opportunity looks like

• Coordinate all aspects of production - pre-production, running shoots and project delivery.
• Take ownership of our regular shoots, ensuring everything goes to plan on shoot days and solving issues as they arise (there will be a requirement for some UK and European travel).
• Support Creative Producers with planning, scheduling and day-to-day project management.
• Book crew, studios, travel and source props across multiple productions.
• Create and manage call sheets, production schedules and shoot logistics.
• Ensure productions stay on schedule and within budget, flagging any risks early.
• Source quotes and process production paperwork and invoices.
• Manage production equipment, kit bookings and shoot resources where required.
• Ensure all health and safety requirements, risk assessments and production compliance are in place.
• Organise production documentation, releases and post-shoot paperwork.
• Coordinate the delivery of assets to post-production teams and support the handover process.
• Keep production trackers and project management tools up to date.
• Build strong relationships with trusted freelancers, suppliers and production partners.
• Look for ways to improve production processes and help the team work more efficiently.

Skills and experience we'd like you to have

• Proven experience coordinating productions across pre-production, shoot days and post-production.
• Hands-on experience leading shoots in a fast-paced production environment.
• Experience of working on shoots involving travel in the UK and Europe is preferable but not essential.
• Exceptional organisational skills, with the ability to manage multiple projects and priorities at once.
• Strong production planning skills, including scheduling, logistics and resource management.
• Experience managing production budgets, invoices and production paperwork.
• Confident working with freelance crew, talent, suppliers and external partners.
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to build strong relationships across teams and with clients.
• Calm under pressure, with the ability to solve problems quickly and adapt when plans change.
• Strong attention to detail, ensuring nothing slips through the cracks.
• Comfortable working to tight deadlines without compromising quality.
• A proactive, hands-on approach with a willingness to get stuck in wherever needed.
• Good knowledge of health and safety requirements and production best practice.
• Proficiency with Google Workspace, Microsoft Office and production/project management tools.
• A genuine passion for digital content and an understanding of social-first production.
