The Films Production & Operations Manager will lead the execution and delivery of all film production projects — including pre-wedding shoots, weddings, branded shoots, and long-format edits. This role involves overseeing shoot planning, on-ground coordination, timeline management, and cross-department execution. The ideal candidate is detail-oriented, great with people, and understands the fast-paced nature of the creative production world.

Key Responsibilities  

1. Project Management & Timelines  

  • Own end-to-end execution of film projects from confirmation to final delivery

  • Maintain shoot schedules, edit queues, and ensure timely updates in ClickUp / Notion

  • Track deliverables across pre-production, shoot execution, post-production, and delivery

  • Monitor shoot and edit timelines for each function and escalate delays to senior management.

2. Team Coordination  

  • Coordinate with Creative Director, Cinematographers, Editors, Album Designers, and Reels Editors

  • Conduct weekly sprint meetings with the post-production and shoot teams

  • Ensure all team members are aligned on shoot brief, gear list, and deliverable expectations.

  • Communicate client-specific requirements to the creative team clearly and early

3. On-Ground Shoot Execution Oversight

  • Ensure the team follows the function-wise SOP for on-ground coverage.

  • Supervise shoot-day execution when required (especially high-value or complex shoots).

  • Ensure on-site backups and data management processes are followed properly

4. Process & Documentation  

  • Maintain detailed records for each project — timeline trackers, function-wise logs, team attendance

  • Use standard SOPs for pre-shoot readiness, shoot-day execution, and data handoff

  • Ensure ClickUp or Notion is updated for every function and trigger hand offs to the next team

  • Share shoot summaries and debriefs with management regularly

5. Client Coordination (Execution Phase Only)  

  • Stay in sync with the Project Manager or Sales team about key client expectations.

  • Manage mid-project client updates, resolve on-ground escalations, and communicate post-shoot timelines

  • Ensure expectations are met as per package and scope, and flag any overshoot early
