• Leading a project from brief to delivery, and everything in between.
• Forecasting and planning in partnership with OLIVER colleagues, Head of Studio and marketing teams.
• Applying production knowledge to consult on forward planning, strategy and feasibility before creative concepts are shared with clients, evaluating solutions to meet creative and logistical needs, and flagging potential roadblocks.

• Managing expectations around production, project margins and risks, ensuring on‐time, on‐budget delivery.
• Developing comprehensive project plans, timelines and realistic schedules, proposing solutions for identified risks or concerns.
• Being comfortable presenting to stakeholders.
• Overseeing large‐scale still and/or video shoots, coordinating with crew, locations, art department, casting and related resources.
• Acting as an agency producer when a production partner is involved, or as a pure traditional production producer without external partnership.
• Proactively improving workflows and ways of working to enhance quality, speed and efficiency based on business needs.
• Creating and delivering accurate production budgets, timelines, paperwork, contracts, risk assessments and health and safety documents.
• Overseeing the financial administration of every project and managing suppliers.
• Supporting and mentoring our Project Manager, assisting with organisation and coordination to develop their experience and knowledge across larger projects and productions.
• Supporting reporting and account management as required, working closely with the account handling global team and the network of Mix studios worldwide.
• Managing project sustainability by tracking carbon emissions via Adgreen's Carbon Calculator.
• Overseeing project wrap‐up, including third‐party costs, final asset delivery and financial reconciliation.
• Creating case studies, award entries and contributing to external recognition, while focusing on internal recognition and expanding the team's reputation within the business.
• Building and maintaining a diverse network of freelance crew, production partners and suppliers with whom we often collaborate.

What you need to be great in this role:

• Extensive experience managing and producing large‐scale productions and projects/campaigns.
• Experience in both agency and production environments.
• Excellent communication skills to interact effectively with brand teams and cross‐functional teams.
• Knowledge of all creative workflows and processes to resource the right skills to the right projects/briefs.
