Partner closely with photography leads and Creative Account Program Managers to prioritize work, balance workloads, and align with campaign and launch timelines.
Track project status, action items, and dependencies, providing clear and timely updates to all partners.
Manage asset flow for still imagery, including file delivery, naming conventions, metadata standards, approvals, and distribution to partner teams.
Collaborate with producers and vendors to estimate, onboard, and lead external photographers, studios, and production partners.
Anticipate risks and obstacles across projects, proposing practical solutions to keep schedules and quality on track.
Contribute to refining and documenting processes and guidelines to build scalable, efficient photography workflows.
What We Need To See
7+ years of proven experience in project management, production, or creative operations, ideally in photography, studio, or agency environment.
Outstanding organizational skills and attention to detail, with experience managing multiple concurrent shoots or creative projects.
Willingness and ability to travel frequently for events, shoots, and on‑site production support, sometimes with short notice.
Flexibility to support key events and launches outside regular business hours, including evenings and weekends.
Excellent communication skills; clear, professional, and proactive across all channels.
Strong collaboration skills with photographers, producers, creatives, and business partners.
Steady and focused in fast‑paced, changing environments.
Familiarity with studio and live event photography, including lighting, capture, file handling, and color correction, as well as the digital asset management and review tools used in photo workflows, is a plus.
BA/BS degree or equivalent experience.
