Job description

About FCP Euro

At FCP Euro, content is at the center of how we educate European car owners and fuel growth across our digital channels. As our video output and creative ambitions expand, we require an enterprise-grade post-production operation to match. The Post-Production Supervisor exists to transform informal handoffs and ad-hoc troubleshooting into a streamlined, high-throughput pipeline. In this role, you will eliminate editing bottlenecks, stand up modern media asset management systems, and establish standardized workflows for both on-site and remote creative teams. Your work directly protects delivery dates across Marketing, eCommerce, and Paid Media while enabling editors to focus on craft rather than file management.

This is a high-ownership leadership opportunity for a technically rigorous post-production expert. If you excel at solving complex storage and codec challenges, mentoring talent, and collaborating with IT to build scalable systems from the ground up, you will thrive here.

This is an on-site role based out of our Milford, CT studio.

FCP Euro is the trusted home and online destination for European car owners and professionals. Family-owned since 1986, our mission is to make European vehicle ownership more enjoyable and enduring by delivering the highest quality parts, knowledge, and support people can rely on. At FCP Euro, we exist to empower owners and professionals with the confidence and support to care for their European cars properly. That commitment has made us more than a retailer—we are a long-term partner for those who value quality, expertise, and trust throughout the life of their vehicle.

Job Summary

Reporting to the Head of Content, the Post-Production Supervisor owns FCP Euro’s post-production operation end to end, leading the camera-to-delivery pipeline, internal editing staff, external vendor workflows, and media infrastructure. You will act as the single technical authority for how video moves through ingest, proxy creation, playback, DAM/MAM cataloging, and final delivery. Collaborating closely with Creative, Production, and IT leadership, you will replace informal workarounds with scalable processes that ensure consistent delivery and long-term capacity.

Responsibilities and Duties

Pipeline Architecture & Delivery Operations

• Own the camera-to-edit workflow across all content verticals, encompassing offloading, proxy generation, review cycles, and final delivery.
• Establish and maintain standard operating procedures for both high-performance on-site and secure remote-desktop editing setups.
• Troubleshoot playback, format, and software issues directly, reducing IT dependency and eliminating missed project deadlines.

Team & External Vendor Management

• Manage, mentor, and hire internal editing staff while balancing project bandwidth against production goals.
• Direct relationships with freelance editors and offshore post vendors, overseeing contracts, schedules, and quality assurance.
• Replace physical hard-drive handoffs with automated, same-day cloud proxy sharing for all remote collaborators.

MAM/DAM & Media Governance

• Lead the evaluation, procurement, and deployment of the content team’s MAM system and support enterprise DAM integration.
• Define metadata schemas, folder hierarchies, version control standards, and AI-assisted tagging to make media instantly searchable.
• Enforce archival policies across local shared storage, cloud repositories, and long-term tape/cold storage tiers.

Infrastructure & Strategic Planning

• Partner with cross-functional leadership to align media technology with business volume.
• Partner with IT on network throughput, NAS/SAN shared storage, workstation configurations, and media security.
• Audit post-production workflows and storage demands to build a prioritized technical roadmap with clear cost and capacity projections.
• Track and report key metrics - including turnaround times, workflow interruptions, and throughput to the Head of Content.

Experience and Skill Requirements

• 5+ years in video post-production, including 3+ years supervising editors or leading post workflows for a studio, agency, or high-volume content brand.
• Advanced mastery of Adobe Premiere Pro and practical working knowledge of DaVinci Resolve color workflows on high-resolution camera files.
• Demonstrated experience creating proxy-based pipelines and remote-desktop workflows for distributed teams.
• Strong command of professional camera formats (e.g., "R3D, N-RAW, HEVC"), transcoding pipelines, and checksum verification tools.
• Hands-on experience implementing or administering a MAM/DAM platform, including metadata taxonomy and search tagging.
• Solid working knowledge of shared storage architectures, media networking, and tiered archiving strategies.
• Experience directing freelance editors and third-party or offshore post-production partners.
• Bachelor’s degree in Film, Media, Video Production, or a related field.

Preferred Qualifications

• Prior experience within eCommerce, digital retail, or the automotive media industry.
• Relevant certifications in media asset management, system administration, or post-production software suites.
• Proven success collaborating directly with corporate IT departments on technical media infrastructure.

Benefits and Perks

• Company-subsidized Medical, Dental, and Vision insurance, including a zero-premium Medical plan for employees. Company HSA contribution.
