To help us get there, we are looking for a Senior Campaign Production Manager to step in, completely own our Creative Production process, and act as the primary driver behind our seasonal creative production strategy. In this role, you will be the primary liaison connecting our Buyers, Brand Marketing, and Content channels to our seasonal production approach.
You will work upstream with our Brand and Product teams to shape the production strategy for our biggest seasonal shoots-translating the GTM plan into clear campaign priorities, detailed project timelines, and the production staffing required to bring our brand stories to life.
