The Producer will work closely with Principals, Executive Directors, Strategists and Creatives, pulling all of them in at the right time to promote collaborative thinking ensuring a successful project. The Producer is a project driver, partnering with Executive Directors to push the project forward within its respective parameter while keeping internal and external team members on track. The true mark of a great Producer is their ability to problem solve and make decisions. There may not always be a clear way or answer, but it’s the responsibility of the Producer to constantly be on the hunt to find one.

As an extension of the production team, an Associate Producer’s main role is to work hand in hand with the Producer to make sure the details of every project are captured and executed. It’s critical that an Associate Producer has excellent organization skills. Whether it’s updating budgets or timelines, setting up internal or external meetings, or keeping up to date project notes, the production team relies on the Associate Producer for remembering the details. Over communication is good communication and when it comes to working with your Producers, that is what will help keep the project on track. Since an Associate Producer lives in the particulars, the Producer depends on you to raise the red flag when you see something going awry. In addition to working with the Producer, you will also work closely with the design and development team, helping to ensure they have all the details to complete their daily tasks.

Reports To: Executive Director of Operations
Executive Directors are responsible for two crucial components to the Studio’s overall success – healthy relationships and tangible results.
Storyland is a relational organization that relies heavily on a healthy partnership that exists between Principals and Executive Directors with the common goal of establishing long-term relationships with clients and delivering quality work.
Executive Directors also work closely with other team members, including Producers, Strategists, Creatives, and other internal and external resources to ensure that alignment exists between Story and Strategy.
As it relates to the story, Executive Directors are responsible for stewarding the client’s story throughout the engagement. They also ensure that the story’s consistency and integrity are a priority for all the supporting disciplines and resources in accomplishing the work.
As well as being a steward of the client’s story, Executive Directors are project owners that must oversee the creation and implementation of the resulting strategy and solution(s). To do so requires Executive Directors to understand the client’s industry, business, customers, and pain points, to offer insights both to the client and internal team. It’s often said that Executive Directors are the second smartest person in the room, having a working knowledge of the subject matter while leveraging the experts/expertise contained within the various studio disciplines.
