Production Manager
We’re different.
There’s no corporate nonsense, no old-fashioned hierarchy, and definitely no micro-management!
We are a collective of young(ish) entrepreneurs running a digital marketing agency in the heart of Birmingham. We are self-starters who get stuff done and pull together as a squad to achieve big things!
We work with E-commerce brands around the world, helping to scale their businesses through creative-led and data-driven social media marketing campaigns.
We work with multiple 7 and 8 figure brands from a colourful variety of sectors including health, beauty, sportswear, fashion, kids toys and more.
Our Creative Team is the backbone of what we do...
As Production Manager you will work in collaboration with our Creative Team to organise and produce video and photo shoots for paid social media campaigns for our clients. These will include product photography, user generated product in use content, lifestyle shoots, scripted content and more.
Think of this role as a hands-on ‘Producer-Creative Director’ type of role.
One day we could be shooting on a Sony A7SIII in our fully equipped in-house studio, the next day we could be on set in an airBNB shooting on a camera phone.
We want to build a showstopping highlight reel of work that we are proud to put our name to, and we want you to take ownership of this to help us make it happen.
We are also looking for the Production Team itself to grow into a dedicated standalone studio in the Jewellery Quarter over the next 12 months.
