Job Description
Work From Anywhere in LATAM or the Philippines
Work Schedule: 9:00 AM – 6:00 PM PST (Pacific Time)
Compensation Range: $1,500 – $2,000 USD/month based on experience
A full-service creative agency producing photo, video, and digital marketing content for education organizations and mission-driven brands is looking for an Operations Manager to own the full project lifecycle from client intake to final delivery.
With a 15-year track record, more than 1,100 clients served, and over 2,200 completed projects, the agency is an established, bootstrapped operation now formalizing the operational infrastructure that supports its growing roster of national brands. The team works out of a dedicated studio facility while collaborating with remote production staff and freelancers across the US.
As an Operations Manager, you'll partner directly with clients to translate goals into briefs, timelines, and milestones; build and rebalance production schedules across editors and photo/video crews; run QC reviews on audio, color, exposure, pacing, and platform specs; and standardize SOPs to lift throughput and consistency. Success means projects ship on time, on spec, and on brief.
Must-Have
- 5+ years of leadership or supervisory experience inside a creative agency or production studio managing photo, video, and marketing deliverables
- Demonstrated project management across concurrent client projects with documented timelines, milestones, and resource plans
- Working proficiency in Monday.com (or equivalent PM platform), Frame.io, and Vimeo
- Hands-on experience with Google Workspace and macOS-based creative workflows
- Working knowledge of Adobe Creative Suite post-production workflows (editing, color, audio)
- Demonstrated ability to provide technical QC feedback on audio, color, exposure, pacing, aspect ratios, and platform-specific delivery specs
- C1+ English proficiency (CEFR)
Nice-to-Have
- Experience with HoneyBook, Dubsado, or comparable client CRM/contract platforms
- Prior work with education sector or mission-driven brand clients
- Experience coordinating US-based creative teams across Pacific Time zones
- Track record of designing and rolling out SOPs across creative production teams
- Experience scheduling and managing freelance editors, photographers, and videographers
