Job description

Compensation: $75,000 – $95,000 annually, depending on experience.


You are the most organized person in the room. You are also the most confident when everything goes sideways.

You have two screens open. Budget on one. Creative brief on the other. You're equally at home in both.

You know how things are made. That video, that event, that moment people can't stop talking about — you solve the problems that make it possible.

You notice the small things others walk past. On set, at a concert, anywhere. That's just how you see the world.


Race Service is a small, agile team that goes from brief to production in days. You're not managing from a distance — you're in it. The budget, the set, the 6am problem nobody else wants to solve. Some producers want a coordinator under them and a desk to sit behind. That's not this. This is a field role.


What you’ll be doing
  • Own project logistics end-to-end. You are accountable for budgets, shoot timelines, on-set schedules, vendor coordination, and crew engagement across pre-production, production, and post-production.

  • Be the bridge between creative vision and execution reality. Managing communications and expectations with all key stakeholders across every stage for clients, brand partners, internal full-timers, and external freelancers.

  • Work closely with account leadership to translate creative ambition into scalable, profitable deliverables that meet and exceed client needs while maintaining Race Service energy and approach.

  • Protect scopes and use creative problem solving to overcome on site challenges in order to deliver client projects up to and beyond their standards even when the initial assumptions are broken.

  • Own the field. You're not only managing from a desk — you're able to go on-site and are energized by it.

  • Understand set etiquette, prioritize crew safety, and make real-time calls when operational reality shifts.

  • Follow the system. Improve the system. You operate within a structured project lifecycle and leave every process slightly better than you found it.

  • This role involves working outside standard hours, international travel, and working weekends and holidays.

Who we're looking for

✔ 5–7 years producing high-stakes creative projects — brand content, experiential activations, live events, or any combination of the three.

✔ A hybrid creative/operations brain. You give structure to creative thinking and handle production details simultaneously and you're equally comfortable in both modes.

✔ Field-first. You're energized on-site, not just in pre-pro. You know set etiquette, you've owned a Circle Up, and you take safety seriously because you've seen what happens when someone doesn't.

✔ Strong existing vendor relationships and the instinct to build new ones. Your rolodex is an asset you bring with you.

✔ Budget fluency from bid to reconciliation. You build them, protect them, and wrap them and you know what actualization means without us explaining it.

✔ A communicator who can hold a room. You can walk a client, a crew, or a boardroom through a production plan and make everyone feel confident.

✔ Proficient in Google Workspace (G-Suite). Google Sheets are non-negotiable. So is a working knowledge of call sheets, master sheets, and production workflows.

✔ Responsive, autonomous, and equipped to work in a non-traditional creative setup. Flexible time zones, remote coordination, on-location execution.

Bonus if you also bring

✔ A genuine curiosity about automotive culture, motorsport, or brand experience. Not as a requirement, but as a reason you'll love the work even more.

✔ Prior experience as a contractor or running your own production entity.
