Studio Production Coordinator
Are you looking for a way to challenge yourself and build your studio production skills?
Groupon’s mission is to become the daily habit in local commerce and fulfill our purpose of building strong communities through thriving small businesses by connecting people to a vibrant, global marketplace for local services, experiences and goods. In the process, we’re positively impacting the lives of millions of customers and merchants globally. Even with thousands of employees spread across multiple continents, we still maintain a culture that inspires innovation, rewards risk-taking and celebrates success. If you want to take more ownership of your career, then you're ready to be part of Groupon.
At Groupon, the Studio team provides merchant services for custom photography, in-house stock photography and videography. This team crafts content that merchandises Groupon’s inventory and brand to customers, on both a local and a national scale. As a team, they are responsible for planning, executing and delivering content that aligns with Groupon’s strategic goals. The content they create spans across multiple types of subject matter, from lifestyle photography to product videos to national marketing campaigns and everything in between.
We're looking for a Studio Production Coordinator to join the Studio team. This person will be the point-of-contact for scheduling, coordinating and ensuring delivery of each of these initiatives, as well as providing the Groupon organization with the information they need to request these services throughout the business.
We're a "best of both worlds" kind of company. We're big enough to have resources and scale, but small enough that a single person has a surprising amount of autonomy and can make a meaningful impact. We're curious, fun, a little intense, and kind of obsessed with helping local businesses thrive.
You'll spend time on the following:
You will contact merchants & sales team partners via phone or email, as needed.
You'll partner with Visual Art Directors to ensure that selected vendors will yield visually compelling, high quality content.
You will schedule productions for the photo & video teams with merchants and communicate production details.
Ensure finished assets are delivered on time & merchants receive the assets they expect, as applicable.
Work with the photo & video teams to identify efficiency opportunities in outreach & production processes.
Maintain a production tracker for all merchant content created for the Visual organization.
Educate teams within the company on Visual's services and ensure there's a communication path for services to be requested.
We're excited about you if you have:
Bachelor’s degree in Visual Arts preferred; related degrees considered
2-4 years of freelance or production experience
Proven understanding of digital photography, videography & content production
Strong communication skills and ability to foster and maintain relationships
Excellent at problem solving and being resourceful
