  • Monitor output for consistency, quality, and brand alignment
  • Continuously improve studio processes, efficiency, and team collaboration
  • Oversee studio scheduling, budgeting, and resource planning

About You:

  • Demonstrable experience managing a creative or production studio in a high-volume environment
  • Hands-on expertise in at least one relevant creative discipline
  • Excellent people leadership and team management skills
  • Confident working with stakeholders across brand, marketing, and senior leadership
  • Deep understanding of creative workflows and the asset delivery process
  • Passionate about branding and creative storytelling
  • Highly organised, proactive, and solutions-oriented

Desirable:

  • Experience in an in-house brand team or creative agency
  • Knowledge of tools such as Monday.com, Asana or similar project management platforms
  • Familiarity with Adobe Creative Suite and post-production processes

What’s on Offer:
