Job description
The Senior Producer is an expert-level production leader on BarkleyOKRP's internal, in-house production practice - where human-led creativity meets best-in-class technology - directly supervising a producer as a direct report, and personally responsible for running a high volume of concurrent projects - from post-only executions to small- and mid-scale live-action shoots (internal director-led productions and content-capture/UGC-style shoots), while working hand in hand with our collective of editors, motion designers, and camera operators. This is a working leader role: someone who manages a direct report and projects at the same time, keeps budgets and timelines under control amid constant shifts, and brings real, hands-on experience with AI tools and AI-informed workflows to help the team adopt and improve them as part of the day-to-day craft.
The ideal candidate is equally comfortable producing a fast-turn post-only edit, a same-week social content capture, and a small studio live-action shoot - often all in the same week - and has real, hands-on experience with modern AI video generation, image generation, and AI-assisted post workflows, along with a genuine drive to help the team grow and improve in this area. They are also a capable people manager - comfortable owning the day-to-day workload, output, and growth of a direct report, while informally mentoring other producers across the team - and who plays an active role in rebuilding team processes so the department can scale output without scaling headcount at the same rate.

BarkleyOKRP's Commitment to Diversity, Equity, Inclusion + Belonging
The ideal candidate is equally comfortable producing a fast-turn post-only edit, a same-week social content capture, and a small studio live-action shoot - often all in the same week - and has real, hands-on experience with modern AI video generation, image generation, and AI-assisted post workflows, along with a genuine drive to help the team grow and improve in this area. They are also a capable people manager - comfortable owning the day-to-day workload, output, and growth of a direct report, while informally mentoring other producers across the team - and who plays an active role in rebuilding team processes so the department can scale output without scaling headcount at the same rate.
Team Supervision & Leadership
- Directly supervise a producer as a direct report - assign projects, balance workload across the team, and hold producers accountable for budget, schedule, and quality.
- Own performance management for your direct report - regular check-ins, feedback, growth planning, and day-to-day coaching.
- Actively develop and grow emerging producers across the team, not just your direct report - hands-on coaching on budgeting, scheduling, vendor management, and problem-solving, not just AI tools.
- Model and teach both traditional production craft and AI-informed workflows so emerging producers build a full, well-rounded skill set.
- Set standards and playbooks that make it easier to onboard and ramp new producers as the team's volume grows.
- Serve as a go-to escalation point - unblocking producers on budget, vendor, timeline, or client issues in real time.
- Run production end-to-end - from scoping and bidding through wrap and delivery - across post-only projects, content capture/UGC shoots, and small-to-mid scale live-action productions.
- Manage a high-volume, always-shifting slate: multiple projects in flight simultaneously, each with its own budget, timeline, and creative variables that can change on short notice.
- Produce both internal director-led shoots and content-capture-only shoots (talent/creator-driven, lower-crew capture built for social and always-on content needs), including internally-driven work such as new business pitches, case studies, and other agency-facing content needs.
- Build and manage budgets for small and medium-sized jobs, including bidding, cost tracking, vendor negotiation, and reconciliation.
- Build realistic schedules that absorb shifting timelines, last-minute scope changes, and competing priorities without losing quality or blowing budgets.
- Staff and manage freelance crews, editors, and vendors appropriate to the scale of each job - right-sizing crews for post-only, capture-only, and live-action work.
AI Practice & Team Growth
- Be hands-on and experienced with current AI video and image generation tools (e.g., Runway, Veo, OpenAI's video/image tools, Midjourney, Adobe Firefly, ElevenLabs), and confidently guide the team on when they fit versus traditional production.
- Bring hands-on experience with AI-assisted workflows - previs, storyboards, b-roll/plate generation, voice, music, upscaling, rotoscoping, and AI-assisted editing - and actively help build repeatable processes and best practices for the team as this area grows.
- Play a hands-on role in rebuilding and modernizing team processes - templates, briefing docs, bidding models, review workflows - so AI is built into how the team scales output over time.
- Bring a strong point of view on where AI could most efficiently expand the team's throughput on high-volume, smaller-budget jobs specifically (as opposed to large-scale, big-budget productions).
- Stay ahead of emerging AI production tools and actively share what you learn with the team, with a clear eye on cost, quality, rights, and client comfort.
- Develop accurate estimates and manage production budgets for small-to-mid scale jobs, keeping profitability and client value in balance.
- Negotiate confidently with vendors, freelancers, and partners to protect budget without sacrificing quality.
- Partner with Business Affairs on contracts, usage rights, talent/SAG-AFTRA considerations, and AI-related licensing and rights questions.
- Communicate clearly and confidently with creative, account, and client teams - especially when timelines or scope shift, which they will, often - proactively keeping every stakeholder confident their project is moving forward, even mid-shift.
- 5+ years producing in an agency, production company, or in-house creative team, with direct experience on post-only, content-capture, and small/mid live-action jobs.
- Prior experience directly supervising or managing a producer - not just mentoring informally.
- A track record of managing a high volume of concurrent projects with shifting timelines and small-to-medium budgets - this is a high-throughput role, not a single-big-project role.
- Genuine, hands-on experience using AI generation tools in real production work, with a track record of helping teams adopt and improve at using them.
- Real interest and aptitude in developing people - you like managing, coaching, and helping emerging producers get better.
- Comfort improving process - templates, workflows, and systems - rather than just following existing ones.
- Strong organizational skills, budgeting discipline, and calm, clear communication under shifting conditions - including the ability to keep every stakeholder confidently in the loop on where a project stands.
- Consistently juggling a full slate of post-only, capture, and live-action jobs without dropped balls.
- Measurable gains in speed and output on high-volume/smaller-budget work by driving adoption of AI tools and rebuilt processes within the team.
- Emerging producers on the team visibly leveling up under your supervision and mentorship.
- A well-run, well-managed team - clear workload, clear accountability, low churn.
- Budgets and timelines held (or renegotiated smartly) even as scope and priorities shift.
- Clear, proactive communication that leaves creative, account, and client teams confident their project is moving forward - even when timelines shift.
