Job description

Overview

The Creative Project Coordinator is the operational backbone of our post-production and design teams—nailing schedules and milestones, keeping boards updated, and maintaining creative workflows. You\'ll clear roadblocks, chase down answers, and make sure nothing gets dropped so editors and designers deliver. You\'ll thrive if you love creative chaos and rapid-fire priorities, and if systems thinking comes naturally. This role is part air-traffic controller, part efficiency nerd—someone who brings order, energy, and a little bit of magic to how great creative gets delivered.

Day-to-Day Responsibilities

• Oversee internal post-production and design projects, ensuring deadlines are consistently met without compromising creative quality.
• Coordinate external project workflows by managing freelance designers, editors, colorists, and motion graphics artists.
• Partner closely with account managers to facilitate timely client reviews, feedback loops, and approvals.
• Organize, manage, and archive final files, version records, deliverables, and associated metadata.
• Track, compile, and document licensing agreements and clearances for music, stock media, and graphic assets.
• Coordinate voiceover sessions, including talent booking, scheduling, session management, and secure file delivery.
• Actively monitor team workload, proactively identifying and communicating potential bottlenecks and resource needs.
• Manage end-of-project media tasks, such as cleanup, archiving, asset storage, and retrieval.
• Maintain detailed records of stock media usage, track licensing statuses, and ensure proper documentation.
• Continuously evaluate and recommend workflow improvements to increase efficiency, reduce friction, and minimize waste.
• Develop and implement rollout plans to optimize the use of internal creative management tools and project trackers.
• Clear, proactive communicator who connects seamlessly across teams and levels

Qualifications

• Strong organizational skills and sharp attention to detail
• 2–4 years experience in creative project coordination, production support, or operations

• Comfortable tracking team bandwidth and planning resource allocation
• Strong documentation skills and an eye for repeatable systems
