Monitor each edit through its lifecycle, flagging delays, timeline slips, or creative direction changes that require schedule revisions.
Hold regular team meetings to track workload, address challenges, and surface department concerns to leadership.
Attend weekly cross‑departmental meetings to provide post‑production perspective on upcoming shoots and releases.
Ensure all videos are properly sound‑mixed, color‑finished, QC’d, and uploaded to the correct platform ahead of release.
Oversee and co‑manage the company’s Airtable system to track edits, brand sponsorships, merchandise/promotional throws, and series trailers.
Publish video content to all company platforms alongside the coordinator and assistant editors, ensuring coverage is scheduled during any team absences.

Onboard post‑production team members to all relevant platforms: music library, stock footage library, email/Slack groups, and Airtable.
Approve post‑team PTO and appointment requests before final COO sign‑off.
Troubleshoot technical issues for the post team; when necessary, elevate to IT vendor via COO.
