• Coordinate project resource requirements and work with Producers and Resource Managers to ensure the right teams are briefed and scheduled.
• Support the briefing, onboarding and coordination of freelance and third-party production partners where required.
• Maintain accurate project documentation including estimates, purchase orders, briefs, schedules and delivery information.
• Ensure project files, approvals, feedback and production information are organised and kept up to date throughout the project lifecycle.
• Coordinate internal reviews, client feedback and amends, ensuring actions are clearly communicated to production teams.
• Support final delivery and quality-control processes to ensure assets are supplied accurately, on time and to the required specification.
• Build strong working relationships across local and global studio teams.
• Contribute to improving production processes and ways of working across the studio.

• Comfortable working collaboratively with creative, production and Client Service teams.
• Good understanding of project timelines, dependencies and the importance of managing scope.
• Numerically confident and comfortable working with estimates, budgets and project costs.
• Able to identify potential production issues and escalating them appropriately.
• Willingness to learn, take ownership and develop increasing levels of production responsibility.
• Comfortable working with globally connected teams across different studio locations and time zones.
• Proficient in Microsoft Office, with an interest in developing experience across production and project-management platforms.
