Melbourne, Victoria, Australia PXP Full time

At PXP, we are seeking a highly skilled Creative Production Director to join our team.

This role plays a pivotal part in our connected ecosystem for one of our major clients and will be exclusively focused on the delivery of their retail business. You'll be part of a tight-knit production team, onsite at our office, collaborating with our broader teams across multiple departments.

The primary responsibility of the Creative Production Director is to oversee and deliver all campaigns and projects successfully, ensuring they meet the highest standards – whether producing the project yourself or assisting other members of the production team on their projects. To achieve this, all projects must be directed according to best-practice delivery management, from briefing through scoping and development, to quality control and post deployment, in a time and cost-effective manner, with a key focus on exceeding expectations whilst maximising agency revenue.

This role reports into the National Director of Production and involves leading a variety of projects from smaller, quick turnaround projects to fully integrated, large budget projects.

Day-to-day, you'll have the opportunity to:

  • Work on a wide and varied array of production jobs across multiple touchpoints – including broadcast, radio, digital, print, film, social and activations
  • Champion best-practice 360 delivery management processes on all your projects – from briefing to scoping and development, to post campaign analysis. This is with a view to ensuring all projects are delivered time and cost effectively, and to the highest level of craft
  • Work effectively with other Heads of Departments to identify areas of integration and encourage collaboration between departments
  • Financial management including budgeting, cost negotiation, estimating, purchase orders, approval of invoices, and tracking of all internal and external costs to ensure each job achieves desired profit targets
  • Work collaboratively with the Creative and Account teams on projects and educate other departments on key elements of the production process as well as innovations in the field
  • Pro-actively contribute to and help maintain the agency database of best-in-breed specialist vendors/contacts (creative, production and technical vendors)
  • Sourcing, negotiating, and liaising with relevant external suppliers to ensure that all work achieves or exceeds agreed schedules, budgets and standards
  • Conduct regular reviews of suppliers and costs, and perform negotiations on behalf of clients
  • Offer advice, based on experience, to other members of the team and to more junior members of the team
  • Assist our Account Leads and Creative on dealing with clients on production issues that may arise, pro-actively consult with more senior members of the team on the best way forward and communicating the agency point of view

We're looking for someone who is well organised, with great attention to detail and a passion for production. Ideally, you'll have a strong interest in developing a career in fully integrated production management and a minimum of 6 years' experience in an integrated production role within a creative agency or a busy studio environment. Experience managing multiple projects concurrently and prioritising tasks in order to meet business critical deadlines is essential. If you enjoy contributing to the team by being motivated and by motivating others, we want to hear from you.

The estimated salary for this position is around $80,000 - $120,000 per year, depending on experience. We also offer a range of benefits including a comprehensive wellbeing program, flexible working hours, access to our global AI platform Marcel, extensive learning and development opportunities, and a culture of open feedback and support.
