Full Job Description
THE ROLE

We're looking for an experienced producer who's excited by the challenge of making ambitious YouTube videos at pace. You'll work closely with creative to take a concept and figure out exactly how it gets made, work with legal when needed, oversee the AP and JP across all productions, and be the person who makes sure nothing gets dropped and everything is moving. You outline how a video will actually look and feel on the channel, you solve the problems that come up along the way, and you own the result.
