Mid-Level Producer at MediaMonks LA

Los Angeles

The MediaMonks monastery in LA is seeking a Mid-Level Producer with a knack for design, animation and video editing at scale. This person will work partially in-house at our client's office (post stay at home orders), so client-facing experience is a must. This mid-level role requires prior experience in digital advertising, transcreation, asset creation and/or integrated production, as well as an understanding of what is needed in the first place to make first-rate projects come about. This team focuses on assets at scale so experience with high-volume is a must!

Role

You’ll partner with one of our biggest clients to produce digital advertising assets that require our in-house teams to deliver quality x quantity.
You are responsible for the process and completion of multiple design & animation projects simultaneously, managing the in- and output of our Design, Illustration and Animation Monks.
A quality watchdog, you work closely together with our Program/Project Managers and production teams across several time zones to make sure pixels are pushed to perfection.
You make sure that the work meets the client’s strategy, brand and creative goals, as well as our own quality standards.
As a producer, you help with scoping and quoting projects, working with senior Monks and department leads to propose timelines and ballparks.
As part of MediaMonks, you are part of an international production company, with 2,500+ Monks from all production disciplines working together to craft the best of work.

Responsibilities

A big part of your day-to-day is briefing team members on delivery objectives and keeping everyone informed on the progress of projects, and the latest office gossip.
You make sure deadlines are met with lethal precision, and flag the ones that aren’t attainable upfront.
You schedule, track and prioritize assignments and make sure the right resources (we mean people of course!) are available.
You liaise between clients and teams to make sure MediaMonks nails milestone after milestone, hustling internal resources to meet external deadlines no matter what.

Requirements

You have at least 2 - 5 years of hands-on experience doing awesome work as a Producer or Project Manager in digital advertising or creative production.
You have a solid understanding of the creative workflow of fast-paced design and animation projects.
You also have sufficient technical knowledge to foresee and address possible planning/production issues, translating the complexity of such projects into lucid language that clients can understand.
We need a true-born and fun-loving team player who can successfully work across teams, time zones and technologies.
You can collaborate comfortably with digital artisans including creatives, illustrators, designers, 2D animators, 3D animators, concept artists.
Setting up and managing production projects between offices is no easy task and requires superb written and verbal communication skills.
Spreadsheets are your natural habitat, project management tools your best friend (e.g., TeamGantt, 10,000ft, Basecamp, Post-it notes).
You break the ice, instead of break a sweat when in front of the client and when facing crazy cases of ambiguity.
You have the experience and tools to solve problems in your back pocket, and you're not afraid to use them as needed.
