The Post Production Manager leads the Assistant Editor (AE) and Input/Output (I/O) team at Trailer Park, ensuring technical accuracy, consistency, and ongoing professional development within the department. This role combines people management with hands-on oversight of workflow quality control, while also scheduling daily priorities for a large team of staff.

  • Develop and maintain standardized AE processes, templates, and documentation.
  • Assign AE resources in alignment with priorities established by the Finishing Manager.
  • Assign AE resources in alignment with priorities of the AV, Content, and Integrated creative teams.
  • Identify skill gaps and create opportunities for AE growth and advancement within the department.
  • Interview and onboard additional flex resources as needed to meet workload.
  • Collaborate with Post Supervisors and the Finishing Manager to ensure project readiness and smooth transitions into finishing.
  • Troubleshoot technical issues and streamline editorial workflows to improve efficiency.

About you

  • 5+ years of post-production experience, including 2+ years managing or supervising editorial staff.
  • Entertainment Advertising experience required.
  • Strong understanding of editorial pipelines, file management, and post-production software (Adobe Premiere, Avid, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve).
  • Proven track record of developing junior talent and implementing quality control systems.
  • Excellent organizational and communication skills, with a collaborative mindset.
  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment.
  • Willingness and flexibility to work long hours with short notice.
