What will you be doing?

Qisetna Projects is an award‑winning digital media initiative dedicated to preserving at‑risk archives and community knowledge through innovative, collaborative storytelling. Through projects such as Return to Tenderness in Raqqa, which documents and preserves Syrian musical and oral heritage with young people and local communities, and the Brixton Labyrinth project, which explores community memory, migration, and place through creative archival practice, Qisetna creates meaningful cultural work rooted in participation, care, and cross‑generational exchange. We are seeking a creative producer to help shape ambitious new productions, expand partnerships, and support the long‑term growth of this socially engaged platform.

Own projects from brief to delivery:

• Turn client briefs into clear creative responses, treatments, mood boards, production plans, shot lists, schedules, budgets, scripts, thumbnails, posting packs, and final deliverables.

Lead brand and client relationships:

• Act as a key point of contact for funding bodies and commissioners, leading status meetings, capturing decisions, managing feedback rounds, setting clear timelines, and keeping relationships warm, professional, and proactive.

Manage scope, budgets, and change control:

• Build and maintain production budgets, cost trackers, schedules, SOWs, and change notes. You’ll be confident flagging risks early, managing scope creep, and ensuring projects remain commercially on track.

Translate brand needs into social‑first creative:

• Understand brand guidelines, campaign objectives, audience behaviours, platform requirements, and client priorities, then shape content that feels creatively exciting while staying on brief and on brand.

Partner with creative, VFX, production and post teams:

• Work closely with internal creative, production, VFX and post teams to ensure every idea is achievable, well‑planned, and delivered to a high standard. You’ll help translate creative ideas into production‑ready and VFX‑ready plans.

Run production workflows:

• Create and manage production schedules, call sheets, risk assessments, crew bookings, supplier briefs, freelancer onboarding, client approvals, shoot logistics, post schedules, QC, delivery specs, and final asset handovers.

Protect quality and compliance:

• Ensure creative coherence, brand compliance, legal and usage clearances, platform policies, music/licensing requirements, talent approvals, and client deliverables are properly managed.

Optimise for social platforms:

• Shape content for each platform, including 9/16, 1/1 and 16/9 formats, hooks, captions, thumbnails, CTAs, length, pacing, and posting requirements.

Manage vendors and freelancers:

• Brief, negotiate, onboard, manage and QC external partners, crew, freelancers, suppliers, studios, locations and specialist vendors when needed.

Learn, review and improve:

• Use performance signals such as watch time, retention, CTR, comments and engagement to understand what is working and feed insights back into future creative.
