Senior Creative Producer, Brand
The role in a nutshell:
As our Senior Creative Producer, you’ll build and run the production engine behind Chainguard’s brand. We’re scaling creative output fast across campaigns, events, paid media, partner programs, video and the website, and you’ll make sure all of it moves from brief to launch on time, on budget and with the craft our audience expects. You’ll sit on the Brand Creative team, own intake, timelines, budgets and agency relationships, and keep every stakeholder clear on what we’re making, when, and why. You’ll work closely with Brand Marketing, Product Marketing, Content, Growth, Events and our web development team.
What you’ll do:
- Manage end to end production of brand creative across integrated campaigns, content, events, paid media, partner programs and the website
- Own creative intake, turning requests into clear briefs with realistic timelines, defined review rounds and named approvers
- Build and run the project management system, workflows and status rhythm for the Brand Creative team, with a single source of truth for every project
- Partner with the Director, Brand Creative on capacity planning, and scale freelancers and agencies up or down as priorities shift
- Source, onboard and manage production partners, including video, photo, motion and animation agencies, from estimate through final delivery
- Own production for non-standard video, from pre-production through post, including crews, locations, talent, schedules, edits, cutdowns and delivery specs for every channel
- Keep scripts, assets, direction and approvals moving so video and campaign work hits launch dates
- Track production budgets, estimates, purchase orders and vendor payments
- Coordinate integrated campaign launches so every channel ships the right assets at the right time
- Manage production logistics for brand media, including out of home, event and sponsorship specs, asset trafficking and vendor deadlines
- Run Brand’s design work on website projects, including timelines, reviews and design QA, with clean handoffs to our web development and growth teams
- Manage freelance and agency partners for paid and digital creative so output stays consistent in quality and on brand
- Manage timelines and deliverables for brand led programs like brand evolution work and brand activations
- Keep improving how we work as volume grows, from templates and asset libraries to retros after every major launch
What we're looking for:
- 5-7+ years of experience in creative production, creative operations or program management for brand and marketing work, in house or at an agency
- Experience producing high volume work across many formats, including campaigns, paid media, events and experiential, video, print and web
- A network of production partners and freelancers, and experience managing them from scoping and estimates to delivery
- Hands on video and photo production experience, including on set
- Experience building and owning project management tools like Asana, Jira or Airtable, and processes people actually use
- Strong budget discipline and comfort negotiating with vendors
- Clear, calm communication with stakeholders at every level, including when the answer is no or not yet
- An eye for craft, and the judgment to protect quality while keeping work moving
- High agency and high urgency, with strong follow through across many projects at once
Bonus points:
- Experience at a fast growing tech company with a high output brand team
- Experience producing creative for developer, infrastructure or security audiences
- Experience managing website design workflows, design QA or a CMS
- Experience working with business affairs or legal on talent, usage rights and releases
- Working knowledge of Figma and Adobe Creative Cloud
