About the Role

Full-Time | Remote UGC + In-Person Production

We’re looking for an experienced Producer to own the day-to-day execution of high-volume creative production across remote UGC/creator shoots and in-person productions.

Working closely with Creative Strategists, Creative Directors, and Production leadership, this person takes approved creative briefs and turns them into organized, production-ready shoots. They own the logistics, talent communication, pre-production, vendor coordination, budgets, and production details so the creative team can stay focused on strategy, creative direction, and performance.

Responsibilities:

Remote UGC & Creator Production

• Coordinate all logistics and execution of remote shoots while Creative Directors & Strategists retain end-to-end ownership of creative.
• Coordinate initial outreach with casting resources and manage communication with booked creators/talent.
• Manage pre-production including scheduling at-home shoot, pre-pro calls, communicate deliverables, wardrobe, grooming, props, products, locations/backgrounds, and production requirements.
• Ensure creators understand scripts, briefs, references, shot lists, and expectations before shoot day.
• Confirm phones/cameras, lighting, audio, internet, technical settings, and remote directing setup are production-ready for Creative Directors & Strategists.
• Coordinate product shipments, props, equipment, and other materials required for shoots.
• Assist creators in location sourcing if off-site
• Serve as the primary production contact for creators and troubleshoot logistical or technical issues.
• Support CD/CS’s on remote shoot sessions and ensure required footage, variations, and pickups are captured.
• Coordinate footage upload, asset handoff, invoices, and talent/UGC payments.

In-Person Production

• Produce in-person shoots from pre-production through wrap.
• Build production, workback timelines, call sheets, and detailed budgets.
• Coordinate talent, crew, locations/studios, equipment, props, wardrobe, transportation, catering, insurance, permits, and other production needs.
• Source, hire, and manage freelance crew and production vendors.
• Lead production logistics and communication across internal teams, talent, crew, and external partners.
• Oversee shoot-day execution, keeping productions on schedule and within budget.
• Manage wrap, returns, invoices, and footage handoff.

Production Operations & Team Support

• Maintain production trackers, budgets, schedules, and project documentation.
• Serve as a key point of contact for freelance producers, crew, creators, and production vendors.
• Lead freelance Producers when additional production support is needed.
• Help document and standardize production workflows, templates, and checklists.
• Identify production bottlenecks and help improve processes as creative volume scales.
• Partner with Creative Strategists and Directors to flag feasibility, timing, budget, talent, and logistical considerations early.
• Own production follow-through so creative teams aren't responsible for managing day-to-day production logistics.

What We're Looking For:

• 4+ years of hands-on production experience in advertising, performance marketing, digital/social content, UGC, or branded content.
• Experience producing both remote creator/UGC shoots and in-person productions.
• Experience working in a high-volume creative or performance marketing environment strongly preferred.
• Strong knowledge of production logistics, budgets, talent, vendors, crew, locations, equipment, and asset handoff.
• Comfortable managing multiple concurrent productions with fast turnaround times.
• Highly organized, proactive, resourceful, and able to anticipate production needs before they become problems.
• Strong communicator who can independently own execution while collaborating closely with Creative and Production leadership.
• Experience with Asana or similar project-management tools is a plus.
