Production Manager, Global Creative - Consumer Products

Netflix•Los Angeles, CA

About The Position

At Netflix, our mission is to entertain the world. Together, we are writing the next episode - pushing the boundaries of storytelling, global fandom and making the unimaginable a reality. We are a dream team obsessed with the uncomfortable excitement of discovering what happens when you merge creativity, intuition and cutting-edge technology. Come be a part of what’s next. Our growing global Consumer Products team brings our members' favorite stories to life through products and experiences. The team is responsible for overseeing the business and creative execution across merchandise creation, product development, licensee relationships, publishing, marketing, as well as a global division focused on live experiences. We’re looking for a Production Manager to manage day-to-day production across the Global Creative team, while helping define and scale how production works, supporting the development of style guides, character art, and asset systems for Netflix Consumer Products. This is not a traditional production role. There is no fixed playbook. This role sits within Global Creative — working directly alongside designers and creative leads to bring work to life with high-level craft and consistency. You will be responsible for ensuring creative work is delivered at the highest quality — production-ready, technically sound, and built to scale across global use cases. This role is embedded within Global Creative and is central to how our work comes to life.It requires someone who can balance creative partnership with production rigor — ensuring the work not only looks great, but works seamlessly across every application. This role is responsible for helping define and evolve the production system — not just operating within it.
