About the position
Drake Cooper is on the lookout for a bold, forward-looking Integrated Producer to join our team. As an Integrated Producer, you'll wear both agency and line producer hats-overseeing projects from concept to final delivery. You'll work hand-in-hand with our Director of Integrated Production, account teams, creative teams, clients, and a talented internal crew of makers to bring campaigns to life. Whether it's a broadcast TV spot, social series, podcast, or digital video, you'll be in the mix producing content across formats and channels. You'll be the go-to person for production and post-production expertise-managing budgets, timelines, vendors, and expectations with confidence. You know how to triple bid and navigate both union and non-union shoots. Most importantly, you bring a calm, collaborative energy to every production. If you excel in a fast-paced, multi-project environment and are a proactive communicator with exceptional organizational skills, a passion for the production craft, a deep love for great storytelling, and a value for collaboration, curiosity, and kindness, this role is for you. At Drake Cooper, we believe in doing great work with great people-and we're excited to welcome someone who shares our values and drive.
