ABOUT THE ROLE
Seed World CREATE is looking for a Project Manager: Creative & Production Design to enhance our design and production capacity across both our own internal projects and the strategic, content, and marketing deliverables we build for clients.
This is a hands-on production role with a strong focus on building better ways of working. You'll personally produce and oversee graphic design, video support, and print layout while continually improving the systems, tools, templates, and workflows behind the work. The goal is not simply to keep projects moving. It is to help a small team produce more high-quality work, more efficiently, without compromising creative standards.
The single biggest differentiator for this role is a genuine passion for experimentation and continuous improvement. We are actively moving our creative workflows toward AI-assisted production, automation, and smarter use of technology. We need someone who is curious about what is possible, eager to test new tools, and able to turn promising ideas into practical, repeatable processes that build capacity across the team.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
PRODUCTION SYSTEMS & CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT
■ Design and continually improve the systems that allow our creative team to produce more high-quality work with less friction.
■ Look across projects to identify bottlenecks, repetitive work, and opportunities to simplify, standardize, automate, or eliminate steps.
■ Build repeatable production workflows, templates, checklists, asset libraries, and handoff processes that improve speed, consistency, and quality.
■ Coordinate with videographers, freelancers and internal team members on scheduling, deliverable specs, and file handoff.
DESIGN, VIDEO & PRINT PRODUCTION
■ Personally produce and/or oversee graphic design for decks, one-pagers, social assets, campaign materials, and other client and internal deliverables.
■ Lead print layout and production across multiple publications, ensuring files are accurate, efficient to produce, and ready for press.
■ Support video projects end to end, including organizing footage, rough-cutting or briefing edits, adding titles and lower-thirds, and preparing final files for delivery across platforms.
■ Maintain and evolve brand systems, templates,
and reusable assets so each project makes the next one easier and faster to produce.
NEW TECHNOLOGY & AI-ASSISTED PRODUCTION
■ Lead the practical adoption of AI-assisted design, layout, image, video, and copy-to-design workflows that increase production capacity.
■ Actively test emerging creative technologies and identify which tools are worth adopting, where they fit, and how they should be used.
■ Turn successful experiments into repeatable workflows, prompt libraries, templates, automations, and quality-control processes.
■ Help the broader team build confidence with new tools by sharing what works, documenting processes, and supporting adoption in day-to-day production.
WHAT YOU BRING
■ 5+ years of experience in creative production, design, workflow development, or a related role.
■ Strong working fluency in Adobe Creative Suite (InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop, Premiere) and Microsoft/Google Office suites.
■ Hands-on, current experience using AI tools for image generation, design, video, layout, automation, or production support
■ A strong sense of curiosity and genuine enthusiasm for trying new tools, testing new approaches, and continually improving how creative work gets done.
■ A systems mindset: you naturally notice inefficiencies, recurring problems, and opportunities to build a better process rather than repeatedly work around the issue.
■ Print production knowledge: file prep, color modes, bleed/trim, and working with printers or media partners.
■ Robust communication and organizational skills, with the judgment to balance production speed, quality, priorities, and stakeholder needs.
■ Experience with monday.com, automation platforms, or comparable workflow tools is an asset.
■ Agriculture, seed, or agri-business industry experience is a bonus, not a requirement.
WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE
■ Every active project has a clear owner, deadline, and status: visible at a glance, no chasing required.
■ Design,
video, and print deliverables consistently ship on brand, on time, and print/production-ready.
■ AI tools are woven into daily production work in a way that speeds output up without compromising quality or brand integrity.
■ The rest of the team trusts this person as the go-to for “where is this at” and “how do we do this faster.”
TO APPLY
Please send a resume, a short portfolio or samples of relevant design/video/print work, and a brief note on your experience using AI tools in a creative production context to
