The Role
Less about us, more about you.
We’re on the hunt for a Senior Producer to join and lead our rapidly expanding Production team. As a social agency, no day is the same. You’ve probably read ‘fast-paced’ a lot on these job boards, but we’re about to say it again: it is a fast-paced environment, but that also means faster learnings, more experiences and quicker development. We genuinely want to help you progress as much as you want to.
We can truly say no day will be the same as a Senior Producer at Spin: from running shoots in exciting locations, overseeing content created by the team for a variety of clients, browsing TikTok for inspiration, creating storyboards for adverts, through to playing a key role in the upskilling and progression of our team. The job role is unbelievably diverse, and we can promise you’ll never be twiddling your thumbs!
