About The Position

At SixSpeed, momentum never really stops — it just shifts gears. And with new opportunities always on the horizon, we like to stay a step ahead. We're looking to connect with talented Content Producers across a range of experience levels, from mid-level Producers to seasoned Executive Producers, as we continue to grow our Content Production team. Whether you're independently bringing ambitious creative concepts to life or leading complex productions and teams, we want to get to know you. We're drawn to people who thrive in the thick of it — who can turn chaos into clarity, navigate the unexpected, and make big ideas happen. If that sounds like you, we'd rather start the conversation now than wait until the next opportunity hits.

Requirements

• Demonstrated commercial content production experience, whether that's independently owning photo and video shoots, managing complex productions, or leading production teams and programs.
• Natural problem-solver who can take an ambiguous challenge, create clarity, and confidently recommend a path forward.
• Curious by nature; wants to understand the brand, audience, business, and creative objective behind the work.
• Takes ownership of work, anticipates what needs to happen next, and proactively moves work forward while knowing when to pull others in for context, alignment, or support.

• Understands the realities of commercial content production, including budgets, timelines, staffing, creative resources, and the tradeoffs required to bring ambitious ideas to life.
• Strong understanding of visual storytelling, creative execution, and the technical and logistical considerations of photo and video production.
• Judgment to help determine the right production approach for the idea, budget, audience, and channel — and can adapt that approach as the work evolves.
• Resourceful, adaptable, and comfortable making decisions in fast-moving, high-pressure environments.
• Can move between big-picture thinking and executional details, knowing when each deserves attention.
• Collaborates effectively across disciplines, builds trust with clients and partners, and brings a low-ego, hands-on approach to work.
• Cares deeply about delivering exceptional creative work and continually looks for opportunities to improve how the work gets done.
• Experience building and maintaining relationships with freelance talent, vendors, and production partners.
• Comfortable supporting productions on set, including travel and occasional evenings or weekends as project needs require.
• At the senior and executive level, energized by developing others — providing context, setting clear expectations, giving actionable feedback, and helping Producers grow into greater ownership.

Responsibilities

• Leading the planning, development, and execution of commercial photo and video productions, from initial concept through final delivery.
• Translating ambitious creative ideas into actionable production plans, balancing creative vision with feasibility, budgets, timelines, and resources.
• Taking ownership of complex production challenges, anticipating obstacles, and proactively recommending solutions.
• Managing production budgets, estimates, schedules, staffing, vendors, and logistics across pre-production, production, and post-production.
• Collaborating closely with Creative, Account, Project Management, clients, and external partners to deliver exceptional work.
• Sourcing and managing directors, photographers, cinematographers, editors, freelance crews, talent, and other production partners.
• Overseeing shoots and production activities, including casting, locations, wardrobe, set design, and the creative and technical details that bring a concept to life.
• Guiding projects through post-production, collaborating with editors, colorists, sound designers, and other partners to ensure the final work delivers on the creative vision.
• Navigating changing priorities, evolving client needs, and unexpected production challenges with confidence and adaptability.
• Building strong relationships with production partners, identifying opportunities to improve processes, and contributing to smarter ways of working.
