Responsibilities

• Own production across Brand Creative campaigns and projects, balancing priorities, capacity, staffing, budgets, timelines, and risk across multiple concurrent initiatives.
• Personally lead our most ambitious campaigns and selected projects from concept through delivery across film, photography, motion, experiential, digital, and integrated work.
• Partner with creative leaders to turn ambitious ideas into production plans that hold up against timing, budget, and reality, challenging underdeveloped briefs and protecting the creative idea through execution.
• Build and lead an exceptional network of agencies, directors, studios, photographers, freelancers, and production partners that expands our capacity without lowering the bar.
• Establish how Brand Creative prioritizes, staffs, greenlights, reviews, and delivers projects, creating a production system that makes exceptional work more repeatable.
• Bring clarity to complex projects by keeping creative leaders and cross-functional partners grounded in the real state of the work, decisions, constraints, tradeoffs, and risks.
• Work directly with Brand Creative leadership to continually raise the quality of the work and build one of the strongest in-house creative teams in the industry.

Requirements

• Significant experience leading complex, multidisciplinary creative production, with a track record of independently owning large-scale campaigns and multiple concurrent creative projects.
• Deep production experience across film, photography, motion, experiential, digital, and integrated brand work, with the judgment to choose the right production model for the idea.
• Strong financial and operational judgment, including experience with scoping, staffing, budgeting, forecasting, and managing meaningful production investments.
• A track record of building production systems, capabilities, or ways of working, not simply operating within established ones.
• Experience building and managing an exceptional network of agencies, production companies, directors, studios, freelancers, and vendors.
• Strong creative judgment and the confidence to challenge briefs, protect ambitious ideas, and make difficult tradeoffs without losing sight of the work.
• Exceptional communication and partnership skills across creative teams, marketers, executives, and external partners.
• The ability to bring calm, clarity, and sound judgment to ambiguity. You're excited to build the function from the ground up and still want to personally produce the work.
