Producer - Brands & Culture

About the role

An established brand experience and production agency is looking for a Producer to join its Los Angeles team. Working across a major spirits account, you'll deliver culturally relevant experiences spanning pop-ups, tastings, immersive environments and live brand activations. You'll take ownership of events with budgets up to $1M, alongside a busy programme of smaller activations with quick turnarounds. Working closely with the client and internal creative teams, you'll combine practical production expertise with an understanding of the trends, creators and cultural conversations shaping audiences. This opportunity would suit an experienced Producer or a strong Associate Producer ready to step up. Previous spirits experience isn't essential.

• Resolve challenges throughout installation, live delivery and strike, protecting quality and the guest experience.
