The posting

VFX Supervisor, Reporting to Chief Creative Officer (CCO), Paris / London, working across our distributed studios (Paris, London, Chennai, Bangalore).

As VFX Supervisor, you own the creative and technical delivery of visual effects from concept to completion across a slate of live-action features and series. You are the senior creative authority on your shows and the primary point of contact for the client, translating their vision into work that meets our standards for quality and craft. You report to the CCO and partner closely with the VFX Producer, the discipline supervisors (CG, 2D, Animation), and the Head of VFX.

Increasingly, you will lead work that is distributed across our sites in London, Paris, Chennai and Bangalore - directing and reviewing across teams and time zones, and keeping creative intent consistent wherever the work is executed.

Responsibilities:

  • Creative leadership You set and protect the creative vision for the show end to end. You provide direction to CG artists, animators and compositors, you run dailies, and you review and approve all deliverables - giving clear, constructive feedback that raises the quality of the work.
  • Client relationship You are the face of One of Us to the client. You participate in their pre-production creative meetings, relay decisions accurately to the team, build lasting relationships, and address concerns before they become problems.
  • Delivery & production Working hand in hand with the VFX Producer, you plan and steer timelines, budgets and resources so the show lands on time and on budget. You strategise the show as a whole - how it gets built, distributed across sites, and presented to the client.
  • Distributed & multi-site work You coordinate work shared across our European and Indian studios, briefing remote teams clearly, and maintaining a single creative standard across all locations.
  • Pipeline & technical direction You ensure all work follows our established pipeline, in close collaboration with the Head of VFX. You stay current with VFX tools and techniques, propose technical solutions, and troubleshoot issues as they arise.
  • Team & mentoring You lead and develop your team, fostering an open, collaborative environment where people feel valued and supported, and you create opportunities for them to grow.
  • New business (occasional) You support bidding and methodology development on new projects and collaborate with concept teams to help win future work.

Skills and Attributes:

  • Strong team leadership skills - Sets a clear vision and direction for the team. Leads by example to create a positive and supportive working environment. Encourages personal growth and establishes a culture of learning and professionalism raising standards across the team.
  • Openness to feedback - Seeks and responds constructively to feedback from team members and colleagues. Creates a culture where feedback is clear, actionable, and regularly exchanged.
  • Collaboration - Ability to work effectively with others. Builds an inclusive team environment where diverse perspectives are actively sought and valued. Facilitates effective collaboration within and across teams to achieve shared goals.
  • Strong interpersonal skills with the ability to build and maintain relationships with clients and stakeholders.
  • Clear and confident communicator - Ensures clear, timely, and accessible communication across the team and stakeholders. Adapts communication methods to support understanding and alignment, and sets expectations for inclusive team practices.

Experience Needed:

  • Proven experience as a VFX Supervisor (or equivalent senior role) in a vendor/facility environment, working with external clients.
  • Strong creative and technical command of VFX, with a portfolio demonstrating exceptional work and a clear creative vision.
  • Expert knowledge of core VFX software — Nuke, Maya, Houdini — and production tracking (ShotGrid / Flow Production Tracking).
  • Thorough understanding of colour theory and its application to live-action features
  • Excellent project management: able to lead multiple teams in parallel and communicate creative ideas in a way that resonates with each artist's role and strengths.

Desirable:

  • Experience on-set supervising.
  • Experience directing or coordinating distributed/multi-site teams.
  • An established network of industry contacts.

You’ll be working towards:

  • Senior VFX Supervisor → Head of Department / Creative Director.
