Introducing Zinc

Zinc Network\’s mission is to nurture open societies and protect them from threats such as disinformation, violent extremism, and malign influence. Zinc conceptualises and creates programs, interventions, and strategic communications campaigns around some of the world’s most complex problems – from disinformation to extremism, media capture to authoritarianism.

Outline of the job

We\\\’re on the hunt for a sharp, inventive and journalistically savvy London-based Spanish-speaking Senior Producer to lead the creative charge on a major new project. If you\\\’re familiar with Latin America, know your way around an edit, and can juggle multiple deliverables without losing your cool – we’d love to hear from you.

This is a senior-level production role at the heart of a project that spans continents, cultures and platforms. You’ll be managing a small, brilliant team of producers, editors and social content producers, ensuring our content lands with purpose and polish.

The Senior Producer will be expected to be in our London office at least 3 days per week.

What you\\\’ll be doing

• Leading the end-to-end production of a slate of digital-first short films (no camera op work needed – we produce through remote crews).
• Writing, edit producing and script-editing multiple short videos at once.
• Managing workflows, tracking deliverables and making sure nothing gets missed across a complex schedule.
• Briefing and reviewing work from your team of producers and social content specialists, and helping them grow.
• Working with our partners, project managers and strategists to ensure creative and production are aligned to our campaign objectives.
• Keeping paperwork tight, scripts punchy, and delivery seamless.
• You’ll also be hands-on in developing ideas, shaping stories, and guiding edits – so this is as much about creative leadership as it is about production oversight.
• You’re fluent in Spanish to native or near-native level, and have a strong working knowledge of Latin American culture.
• You’ve worked as a Producer or ideally a Senior Producer on short-form digital video content – ideally including news, current affairs, or documentary-style features alongside campaign work.
• You’re comfortable managing creatives, writers, editors and freelancers – and you know how to bring the best out of them.
• Your scripting is crisp, clear and engaging. You turn complex subjects into scroll-stopping video.
• You know your way around production schedules and can spot a deadline from a mile away.
• You get the formats, pace and visual grammar of social platforms – and you’ve produced content that works natively on them.
• You’re collaborative, organised and calm under pressure – with a sharp editorial instinct and a strong visual sense.
• You have experience producing motion graphics or overseeing animation-heavy content.

Must-haves

• A portfolio of short-form social video work – please include links in your application.
