Senior Client Partner Jobs in Indiana (NOW HIRING)

About the Role
As an Executive Producer, you lead the planning, execution, and delivery of complex video, film, animation, and multimedia productions for a diverse portfolio of clients. You serve as the driving force behind production excellence, ensuring projects are delivered on time, on budget, and at the highest creative standards.
This role combines production expertise, business acumen, and leadership. You oversee the full production lifecycle-from creative brief and pre-production planning through final delivery-while partnering closely with clients, creatives, strategists, project managers, production partners, and agency leadership to bring ambitious ideas to life.
You are equal parts problem-solver, relationship-builder, and operational leader. Whether managing budgets, leading production teams, navigating on-set challenges, or building client confidence, you play a critical role in ensuring every production delivers exceptional creative work and measurable business value.
As AI continues to evolve production workflows, you embrace tools that improve planning, efficiency, and collaboration while recognizing that leadership, creative judgment, relationship management, and decision-making remain essential to successful production outcomes.
Responsibilities
Here are some, but not necessarily all, of your responsibilities:
Lead complex productions from concept through delivery.
You oversee the planning, budgeting, scheduling, execution, and delivery of video, film, animation, and multimedia productions. You ensure creative vision is achieved while balancing timelines, budgets, resources, and client expectations. You continuously refine production processes, workflows, and best practices to support high-quality execution across projects.
Serve as a trusted client partner.
You act as the primary production contact for assigned clients, building confidence through proactive communication, transparency, and reliable delivery. You help guide clients through production decisions, anticipate challenges, and provide thoughtful solutions that support both creative goals and business objectives.
Own production budgets and financial performance.
You develop and manage project budgets, ensuring productions are scoped accurately and delivered profitably. You oversee cost tracking, purchase orders, vendor payments, and production expenditures while proactively identifying risks and opportunities throughout the production lifecycle. You partner closely with agency leadership and finance teams to maintain financial accountability and operational efficiency.
Manage production partners, vendors, and talent.
You oversee relationships with production crews, freelance talent, studios, animators, editors, photographers, voice actors, and other production partners. You negotiate scopes, contracts, and agreements while ensuring projects have the resources required for success. You maintain a strong understanding of talent usage rights, licensing, releases, union requirements, and industry best practices.
Ensure production compliance and risk management.
You coordinate permits, insurance requirements, location approvals, legal clearances, and production documentation. You help ensure all productions meet regulatory, contractual, licensing, and client-specific requirements while minimizing risk and protecting both clients and the agency.
Lead and develop production teams.
You provide leadership, mentorship, and direction to producers and production team members. You establish clear expectations, support professional development, and foster a collaborative environment that encourages accountability, growth, and production excellence.
Leverage AI and emerging technologies thoughtfully.
You use AI-powered tools to improve production planning, automate workflows, support scheduling, streamline reporting, and enhance operational efficiency. You understand that technology can accelerate execution, but exceptional productions still depend on human leadership, creative problem-solving, and relationship management.
