Creative Producer

Creative Producer

Freelance / Contract | $75-$100/hour, commensurate with experience

An independent publishing and media venture is seeking an experienced, highly capable Creative Producer to help build and manage a growing portfolio of projects spanning books, film, digital content, and audience development.

This is a hands-on role for someone who is equally comfortable thinking creatively and making things happen. The right person will have excellent taste and judgment, strong organizational instincts, and a demonstrated ability to take ambitious creative projects from idea through execution.

The Role:

Working closely with the founder, the Creative Producer will help shape and execute a range of publishing, film, and digital projects.

Responsibilities will include:

• Managing the production and publication of a portfolio of literary works
• Building and maintaining the venture’s website and broader digital presence
• Coordinating film marketing and related creative initiatives
• Managing newsletters, email, social media, and other audience-development channels
• Developing and maintaining effective digital and technical infrastructure
• Identifying opportunities to grow audience and generate revenue
• Sourcing and managing designers, developers, printers, freelancers, and other outside partners
• Creating timelines, managing deliverables, and keeping multiple creative projects moving simultaneously
• Working directly with the founder to turn ideas into polished, finished work
• Helping establish systems and processes that allow the venture to operate efficiently as it grows

Who We’re Looking For:

This is not an entry-level role. We are looking for someone with a demonstrated record of accomplishment in creative production and experience in publishing, film/media, or a closely related field.

The strongest candidates will bring:

• Significant experience producing and delivering creative projects
• Exceptional project-management and organizational skills
• Strong writing, editorial, and visual judgment
• Experience working with creative professionals and outside vendors
• Digital and technical fluency, including comfort learning and implementing new tools
• Understanding of marketing, audience development, and digital distribution
• The ability to work independently, solve problems, and move projects forward without extensive oversight
• Intellectual curiosity and genuine enthusiasm for books, film, culture, and creative work

We are particularly interested in people who combine creative judgment with operational ability: someone who can discuss the vision for a project and then build the timeline, find the right collaborators, manage the details, and get it finished.

To Apply:

Please submit a résumé or CV, examples of relevant work or a portfolio, and a brief introduction describing your experience and interest in the opportunity.

Strong professional references will be requested as part of the selection process.

Compensation: $75-$100/hour, depending on experience and the structure of the engagement.
