Responsibilities

• Manage production and post-production pipelines, driving the execution of a fast-paced slate spanning live, scripted, and unscripted formats from greenlight through platform launch.
• Standardize and support readiness protocols prior to principal photography, optimizing kick-off frameworks, distribution setups, milestone cash flows, and cast/crew table reads.

• Partner with Creative Execs to evaluate new production partners for their ability to execute on a project, and help vet projects for production viability at the targeted budget.
• Maintain and optimize high-priority cross-functional communication channels (Finance, Legal, Creative) to clear dailies, fast-track rush invoices, trigger cashflow milestones, and resolve complex questions under tight deadlines.
• Partner closely with Business & Legal Affairs, Finance, PR, and Creative Executives to align long-term production efforts.
