Job description

At Guzman y Gomez Mexican Kitchen, our mission has always been to reinvent fast-food. We’re Australia’s only fast-food restaurant to be 100% clean, meaning there are no added preservatives, artificial flavours, added colours or unacceptable additives in our food. We’re incredibly proud of our amazing people, and the unique way we celebrate Mexican culture in everything we do.

Job Description

Every GYG shoot needs someone who has planned every detail — the talent, the props, the call sheets, the budget, and the fifteen things that can go sideways on a shoot day. The Producer owns all of it, so the creative team can show up and focus entirely on the work. If you love the organised chaos of a shoot day and take real pride in tight production, this is your role.

What You'll Bring

• 2+ years in a producer or production role within a brand, agency, or production company
• Demonstrated track record producing shoots end to end, from brief to wrap
• Strong budget management experience, with the ability to own and reconcile shoot budgets independently
• Confident managing multiple shoots and timelines simultaneously without dropping detail
• Strong network of talent, agents, freelancers, and external suppliers (or the ability to build one quickly)
• Expert working knowledge of production paperwork including call sheets, contracts, releases, and budgets
• Calm, structured, and resourceful under shoot-day pressure
• Strong leadership presence on-set, comfortable directing crew and making real-time decisions
• Food, hospitality, or QSR production experience an advantage

What You'll Love
