POST-PRODUCTION CLIENT LEAD

We are looking for an experienced Post-Production Client Lead to own key client relationships — primarily for one of our global clients — while leading our post-production team in Hungary.

In this senior leadership role, you’ll act as a trusted strategic partner to clients during post-production and delivery, overseeing end-to-end workflows across multiple brands, regions, and formats. This position suits someone who combines strong client-facing confidence with deep post-production expertise and enjoys leading complex, high-volume creative operations.

• Oversee all stages of post-production, including video editing, motion graphics, VFX, color grading, sound design, and final finishing, ensuring outputs meet brand, creative, and technical standards.
• Manage end-to-end project workflows, including scheduling, resourcing, budgeting, and milestone tracking across multiple concurrent campaigns and markets.
• Coordinate cross-functional teams — editors, motion designers, VFX artists, colorists, sound specialists, and freelancers — ensuring efficient workflows and high-quality outputs.
• Review deliverables at each stage, own final approvals, mitigate risks, and resolve issues to guarantee seamless post-production execution.
• Lead post-production process improvements, implement best practices, and optimize workflows for efficiency, scalability, and consistency.
• Collaborate closely with creative, production, media, and finance teams to align timelines, resources, and project objectives.
• Support the growth and development of the post-production team through mentoring, training, workload planning, and fostering a culture of collaboration and accountability.
• Oversee archiving, storage, and distribution processes for multi-platform deliverables, ensuring compliance with client standards and security protocols.

What we are looking for

• 10+ years of client-facing experience in post-production or production management, with a proven track record of delivering large-scale campaigns across video, digital, social, and multi-platform formats.
• Strong leadership experience managing in-house teams and freelance talent, ensuring career development, effective workload distribution, and team motivation.
• Deep technical knowledge of the full post-production lifecycle, including editing, motion graphics, VFX, color grading, sound design, and final finishing.
• Hands-on familiarity with key industry tools and platforms, such as Adobe Creative Suite, DaVinci Resolve, Avid, ShotGrid, or similar, to guide teams and review work effectively.
• Excellent project management skills, including scheduling, budgeting, resource allocation, and multi-project oversight across markets.
• Confident and strategic communicator, capable of advising senior-level clients, negotiating priorities, and presenting complex ideas clearly.
• Strong operational and financial acumen, with experience monitoring KPIs, managing budgets, and optimizing processes for efficiency and quality.
• Ability to manage risk, troubleshoot issues, and continuously improve post-production workflows.
• Strategic thinker with problem-solving skills, decision-making capability, and a strong sense of accountability.
• Bachelor’s degree in Film Production, Media, Motion Graphics, or a related field is preferred.
• Fluent English (written and spoken); additional languages are a plus.
