We are looking for a Director of Client Fulfillment & Production Operations to lead one of the most important departments in the company. This is not a video editing role.

Make sure clients are taken care of. Make sure deadlines are hit. Make sure the team performs. What A Typical Day Looks Like: Reviewing department KPIs Managing team leads and department staff Solving client escalation issues Removing production bottlenecks Monitoring delivery timelines Conducting accountability meetings Reviewing capacity and staffing needs Coaching underperforming team members Improving workflows and SOPs Reporting key metrics to leadership Every day involves problem solving. Every day involves decision making. Every day involves leadership. The Ideal Candidate The ideal candidate has experience running large service-based operations. You may come from: Marketing agencies Creative agencies SEO agencies Consulting firms Customer success organizations Production companies Podcast networks Large fulfillment teams High-volume service businesses You understand how to manage people, priorities, deadlines, clients, and performance simultaneously.
