What does a Senior Producer do at WPP Production?

As a Senior Producer, you will be a creative production leader and critical thinker who elevates every project regardless of scale.

You will act as a primary,



client-facing point of contact for both on-set production and complex post-production workflows. The ideal candidate will have ambitions that push production and technological limits, possessing deep experience across integrated platforms, physical shoots, and post-production management.

- On-Set Leadership: Lead physical production on set, facilitating all communication between the agency, clients, and external production partners.
- Post-Production Oversight: Serve as the lead point of contact for complex post-production pipelines, overseeing CGI, color correction, and online/offline editing for broadcast, social, and digital deliverables.
- Creative Problem Solving: Actively contribute to the elevation of the creative product; seek innovative, high-quality solutions to financial or time limitations.

Relationship & Account Management

- Stakeholder Collaboration: Communicate proactively with Creative, Account Services, Business Affairs, and Talent departments regarding milestones and deliverables to keep processes flowing smoothly.

Financial, Legal & Talent Business Affairs

- Budget & Financial Management: Generate estimates, track invoices, manage budgets, and partner with Business Affairs Managers on final project actualizations and efficient wrap-outs.
- Compliance & Talent Regulations: Maintain a solid working knowledge of client compliance, legal guidelines and talent/union regulations (including SAG-AFTRA guidelines and costs) to advise both agency teams and clients.

Innovation & Team Mentorship

- Trend & Tech Leadership: Stay informed of industry trends, emerging technologies (including Al tools and next-generation production processes), and award-winning work.
- Team Support: Mentor and support fellow producers, helping guide teams away from avoidable challenges using proactive risk assessment.

Qualifications

- Experience: 7-10 years of integrated production management experience within a creative agency or global production studio.
