* Develop and maintain project schedules, budgets, and resource allocations, while continually refining plans to adapt to evolving project needs and priorities.
* Drive consensus among stakeholders at all levels to ensure alignment on deadlines, requirements, and priorities.
* Define workflows and processes that facilitate collaboration, clear communication, and accountability.
* Identify potential risks and challenges early in the development process, and proactively develop mitigation strategies to address them, ensuring project success and minimising disruptions.
* Line manage and mentor junior producers, facilitate team planning sessions, and drive process improvements to enhance production efficiency and effectiveness.
What You’ll Bring
