*Please note you must be based within commutable distance to Rugby for this role, or be willing to relocate.* About the Role We’re looking for a versatile and experienced Studio Manager to lead operations for a new high-throughput eCommerce video studio. The role combines multi-camera television production expertise with sales-focused scriptwriting and directing, ensuring every product video is sharp, effective, and on-brand. This is a hands-on leadership position overseeing crew, workflow, and production standards across two studio teams. You’ll direct and vision mix shoots, support the creative process, and help refine a scalable, efficient content machine. This role would ideally suit someone with shopping television or direct-response experience, but we’re open to producers with strong studio broadcast backgrounds who are comfortable with high-volume production and fast turnarounds. Responsibilities: ● Lead and coordinate daily operations across both studio teams, working closely with vision mixer directors, floor crew, and client teams. ● Direct and vision mix multi-camera shoots using a switcher or similar hardware. ● Collaborate with presenters and floor staff to maintain production pace and visual consistency. ● Write using LLM, edit, and review sales-driven scripts in line with brand tone and merchandising guidelines. ● Perform light editing in Adobe Premiere (or equivalent) as needed to support fast delivery. ● Ensure daily schedules are met and workflows remain efficient and adaptable. ● Liaise with client teams and oversee technical and creative standards. ● Troubleshoot production issues and support continuous improvement across the team. About You The essentials: ● Solid background in multi-camera studio television production. ● Experience directing live or live-to-tape shoots with presenters. ● Demonstrable skill in writing sales or product-driven scripts. ● Proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro or other non-linear editors. ● Strong organisational and team leadership skills. ● Comfortable working with cloud-based or automated studio workflows. ● Ability to remain calm, efficient, and solutions-focused in a high-output environment. ● Experience in teleshopping, direct-response television, or commercial eCommerce video. ● Familiarity with Vision mixing, audio and associated workflows. ● Understanding of digital asset management ● Previous experience scaling studio teams or helping build production infrastructure preferred. Why This Role? You’ll be part of a team building an entirely new kind of eCommerce studio — fast, smart, automated, and scalable. Working with a major global retailer, you’ll play a pivotal role in shaping how product content is made at volume, using cutting-edge technology and production models rooted in television craft.
