Job description

Deeplocal is looking for an Executive Producer who is passionate about creative excellence to deliver complex, highly technical experiential projects for some of the most loved brands in the world. This is a temporary position with the potential for future permanent opportunities.

While this position is responsible for the fiscal health of projects and effectively managing and communicating with the Deeplocal team and our clients, the ideal candidate wants to be a critical part of the creative process—by both empowering a multidisciplinary team to do brilliant work and personally contributing and driving creative concepts and production execution decisions around those concepts. They are a leader and smart problem‑solver who can break down, simplify, and solve complex problems. They see hidden risks and account for them early on in a project.

This position is based in Pittsburgh, but we are open to remote candidates. Travel is required, as needed.

Responsibilities

Client Communication

• Run client meetings during production and bring in appropriate leads as needed.
• Serve as the primary point of contact, clearly communicating budget estimates, scopes of work, timelines, roles and responsibilities, and project status to clients; ensure all requests are addressed quickly and responsibly.

Production: High‑Level

• Define and manage deliverables in tandem with Technical and Creative Leads to create scopes of work, vet deliverables with all stakeholders, and manage the creative and production process through execution.
• Develop robust, complete budgets with the Director of Technical Strategy and vet project budgets with team leads before submission for stakeholder review.
• Develop production schedules and staff plans that guide projects, creating smart resourcing plans that lead to creative excellence and fiscal health; communicate changes and updates to team members regularly.
• Maintain awareness of creative, design, technical, and logistical challenges across mediums; communicate project status, needs, and challenges to clients and internal leads to reach joint consensus on next steps.
• Run team meetings, facilitate communication, resolve disputes, and elevate issues when necessary.
• Write and present scopes of work, incremental project proposals, and change orders for client projects.
• Source necessary materials for productions where appropriate.
• Track team member hours and project hard costs, report monthly to Finance and Director of Production, reconcile project costs against budgets, and work with Deeplocal’s finance team to recognize revenue.
• Source and manage vendors and freelancers, ensuring all are under contract and procedures for contract negotiations are followed; identify and vet outstanding vendors on an ongoing basis.
• Support the team emotionally and build morale; provide leadership and guidance to production assistants and more junior producers to keep client projects well‑organized, on brief, on time, and on budget from kickoff through delivery.

Qualifications

• 5–10 years of experience producing tangible, interactive experiences, exhibits, or spaces in a creative industry.
• Experience producing tech‑based live events is preferred.
• Creative thinker and problem‑solver capable of leading client and team meetings with confidence and clarity.
• Comfortable translating ambiguity into concrete project plans.
• Experience in event production, budget management, and logistics is required.
• Highly organized with exceptional communication skills and attention to detail.
• Strong project management skills; able to prioritize tasks while managing multiple priorities.
• Comfortable working within tight deadlines and maintaining composure when priorities conflict.
