About the job
Integrated advertising and social production Own assigned advertising and social projects from brief through final delivery, creating a clear production approach for each channel, format, audience, and market. Translate creative concepts into executable scopes, schedules, budgets, staffing plans, and production pathways while preserving the core idea. Anticipate dependencies and production risks early, present options and trade-offs, and keep partners aligned through timely decisions and communication. Build and maintain project plans that cover milestones, owners, approvals, reviews, deliverables, versioning, and launch dates. Coordinate internal teams, agencies, production companies, freelance talent, and post-production partners to keep work moving and responsibilities clear. Manage multiple concurrent assignments with sound judgment, adjusting plans as priorities, creative direction, platform needs, or production conditions change. Apply a working understanding of major social platforms, placements, aspect ratios, content behaviors, and publishing requirements to production planning. Support pre-production meetings, shoot preparation, production execution, and post-production handoff, escalating material issues with clear recommendations. Develop and manage project budgets, estimates, purchase orders, statements of work, change orders, invoices, and reconciliations in partnership with finance and procurement. Evaluate agency and vendor proposals for production value, completeness, schedule, cost, and risk, and support negotiations with appropriate partners. Build brand, legal, accessibility, privacy, localization, and platform reviews into the production schedule rather than treating them as final-stage checks. Coordinate with business-affairs and legal partners on talent, music, intellectual property, releases, clearances, usage terms, and expiration requirements. Provide concise, accurate status reporting on scope, schedule, budget, risks, decisions, and delivery across the projects you own. Bachelor's Degree in Business, Marketing, Communications, Economics, Public Relations, or related field AND 1+ year(s) integrated marketing (e.g., digital, relationship, social media, campaign), event management, marketing strategy, business planning, marketing operations, or related work experience OR equivalent experience. 5+ years of experience in advertising production, social-first content production, integrated production, post-production / video edit, related experience OR equivalent experience. Production experience within an advertising agency, creative agency, production company, in-house brand or studio, or a combination of these environments. Demonstrated ownership of creative projects from brief and scoping through production, post-production, approvals, versioning, and final delivery. Familiarity with line-production practices, including production bidding, estimates, schedules, crew and vendor planning, locations, shoot logistics, insurance, permits, and wrap. Experience producing content for major social platforms and managing multiple formats, cutdowns, aspect ratios, and deliverable specifications. Experience managing project budgets, purchase orders, statements of work, change orders, invoices, and cost reconciliations. Working knowledge of talent, music, intellectual-property, usage-rights, release, and clearance considerations in an advertising production context. Written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to present production plans, risks, options, and trade-offs clearly. Experience collaborating with creative directors, designers, writers, strategists, marketers, social teams, agencies, production companies, and post-production partners. Experience using work-management, review-and-approval, digital-asset-management, or AI-enabled production tools to improve workflow and delivery.
