Due to an increase in demand, a new role has been created for a Creative Production Coordinator/Manager to join a very busy in-house studio within an established events and media production company, recently recognised as a UK Great Place to Work, based in Cheadle, Cheshire.

Supporting a wider media team, you will manage the day to day production of creative media projects. Managing resources, producing project estimates and schedules and ensuring production processes are adhered to - particularly quality standards - are the prime areas of focus for this role. With experience of working in a creative environment, you will support Producers and Project Managers with delivering larger projects, potentially managing smaller projects independently as the role develops. As with all projects, there are often tight deadlines, so you will be well versed in juggling multiple projects.

Experience in moving creative media projects along, ideally gained within an agency setting, you will be able to scope, monitor and understand the creative design process from idea stage through to quality checking and final delivery. You will live and breathe logistical challenges, keeping everything in the air with clear thinking and calm - reassuring everyone its 'in hand'. Your proactive approach will avert future challenges ensuring we have the right resource in place at all times.

During a period of growth for this department, this is an exciting role with a lot of activity.... we're always looking to produce new and exciting things ...and have fun doing it.
