About the Role

We’re looking for a versatile and experienced Studio Manager to lead operations for a new high-throughput eCommerce video studio. The role combines multi-camera television production expertise with sales-focused scriptwriting and directing, ensuring every product video is sharp, effective, and on-brand. This is a hands-on leadership position overseeing crew, workflow, and production standards across two studio teams. You’ll direct and vision mix shoots, support the creative process, and help refine a scalable, efficient content machine.

This role would ideally suit someone with shopping television or direct-response experience, but we’re open to producers with strong studio broadcast backgrounds who are comfortable with high-volume production and fast turnarounds.

Responsibilities:

● Lead and coordinate daily operations across both studio teams, working closely with

vision mixer directors, floor crew, and client teams.

● Direct and vision mix multi-camera shoots using a switcher or similar hardware.

● Collaborate with presenters and floor staff to maintain production pace and visual

consistency.

● Write using LLM, edit, and review sales-driven scripts in line with brand tone and

merchandising guidelines.

● Perform light editing in Adobe Premiere (or equivalent) as needed to support fast

delivery.

● Ensure daily schedules are met and workflows remain efficient and adaptable.

● Liaise with client teams and oversee technical and creative standards.

● Troubleshoot production issues and support continuous improvement across the team.

About You

The essentials:

● Solid background in multi-camera studio television production.

● Experience directing live or live-to-tape shoots with presenters.

● Demonstrable skill in writing sales or product-driven scripts.

● Proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro or other non-linear editors.

● Strong organisational and team leadership skills.

● Comfortable working with cloud-based or automated studio workflows.

● Ability to remain calm, efficient, and solutions-focused in a high-output environment.

● Experience in teleshopping, direct-response television, or commercial eCommerce

video.

● Familiarity with Vision mixing, audio and associated workflows.

● Understanding of digital asset management.

● Previous experience scaling studio teams or helping build production infrastructure

preferred.

Why This Role?

You’ll be part of a team building an entirely new kind of eCommerce studio — fast, smart,

automated, and scalable. Working with a major global retailer, you’ll play a pivotal role in

shaping how product content is made at volume, using cutting-edge technology and production models rooted in television craft.
