• Track production deliverables and ensure smooth workflow between creative, retouching, and asset management teams
• Anticipate production needs and provide on-the-ground problem-solving support
• 2–4 years of experience in photo production or studio operations (agency, in-house, or set experience preferred)
• Strong understanding of commercial or editorial photo workflows
• Excellent organizational and multitasking skills with keen attention to detail
• Strong interpersonal communication skills and comfort working directly with clients
• Calm under pressure and solution-oriented in a fast-paced environment
• Familiarity with production scheduling tools and digital asset management systems a plus
