• Prepare and maintain accurate budget documentation and forecasts throughout the project lifecycle.
• Collaborate with creative teams and Creative Technologists to ensure technical scopes align with creative intent and client objectives.
• Support fabrication producers with the production of scenic elements that integrate technology, helping manage vendors, timelines, and on-site coordination where the two workstreams intersect.
• Oversee on-site installation, live execution, and strike of all assigned technology and fabrication elements, managing vendors and labor calls on the ground.
• Implement quality checks throughout production to ensure all deliverables meet project specs and client expectations.
• Adapt quickly to changing priorities and project demands, staying calm and solution-focused under pressure.

Salt Core Values + You

• Redefine the Rules: Creative and production fighting like cats and dogs? Not here. We bring creative and production together from the start because a great idea is only as good as how it’s brought to life. For us, logistics and aesthetics go hand in hand. We’re all about delivering experiences that go beyond the ask.
• In Search Of: Tackling challenges is our favorite pastime. Obstacles? We call them plot twists. We are creative thinkers and problem-solvers who always find a way forward with curiosity and determination. Our focus is exceeding expectations, turning client asks into an opportunity to deliver something unexpectedly brilliant.
• Expect More, Get More: We hold ourselves to higher standards than anyone else, always looking for ways to elevate each project. We don’t stop at simply checking all the boxes; we push until time runs out. That extra 10% is where we surpass the competition, delivering results beyond what our clients could imagine—or even think to ask for.
• Compassion is Culture: We are powered by extraordinary humans, and we’re dedicated to cultivating an environment where company success is tied to team success. We combat burnout with inspiration, motivation, and genuine support. Without fun, work sucks

You Are:

• You are a highly organized, execution-focused producer , who can manage multiple moving parts across a complex tech project without losing sight of the creative vision or the budget.
• You are a natural connector , equally comfortable in a briefing with a creative director and a technical walkthrough with a vendor, keeping all sides aligned and moving in the same direction.
• You are solutions-oriented and calm under pressure , someone who sees a shifting timeline or an on-site challenge as a problem to solve, not a reason to panic.
