The company also established its in-house unscripted studio FOX Alternative Entertainment (The Masked Singer, Snake Oil, I Can See Your Voice, Name That Tune), FOX Entertainment Studios (Animal Control) to develop scripted content, and worldwide content sales unit FOX Entertainment Global. JOB DESCRIPTION
Studio Content Operations is seeking a Vice President of Media Operations to lead the next evolution of FOX Entertainment’s content supply chain, spanning content readiness, localization, QC, servicing, delivery, and AI-enabled workflow modernization.
The Vice President, Media Operations will be responsible for building a faster, more scalable, and more technology-enabled media operation that can support increasing volume, more varied content formats, and greater operational complexity without relying on headcount growth as the primary solution.
The mandate is clear: simplify the operating model, reduce manual coordination, modernize workflows, and use AI, automation, and better systems to increase capacity, speed, quality, and visibility across the end-to-end content pipeline.
This role requires you to be comfortable with disruption, able to challenge legacy ways of working, and capable of moving teams from manual execution toward technology-enabled operating discipline. You will bring strong judgment, operational rigor, high standards, and the ability to lead through ambiguity while keeping the business moving.
This is a senior leadership role for you to set context, make hard tradeoffs, build alignment, and deliver measurable operating leverage.
Regular, on-site attendance at the workplace for a minimum of four (4) days per week is an essential function of the position. The selected candidate must be able to reliably meet this requirement.
