Creative Lead, Production & Creative Operations (Post-Sale)

Location: Greenville, plus production travel required

You take the sold idea and shepherd it through the studio to delivery. Once a deal closes and the Strategist hands off to Activation, you become the creative counterpart on the production side — making sure the integration is written into the video early enough (not tacked on in post), coordinating across the writers' room, the social team, and Studio production, keeping assets sequenced correctly across channels, getting brand needs into the right production conversations at the right time, and being on the ground during shoots to help when Jimmy pivots. Support brand calls. Explain creative trade-offs to the client when reality diverges from the pitch.

What you'll actually do

•             Own the creative integration inside the writers' room. When a sold integration hits the writing phase, you are the person who makes sure it gets written into the video early enough to be an organic story beat, not a bolted-on interruption. 
•             Coordinate across writers' room, social team, and Studio production. You keep the creative sequencing coherent across all of them.
•             Get brand needs into the right production conversations at the right time. The client's must-haves (product visibility, brand messaging, disclosure requirements, key visual guidelines) need to land at the production planning stage, not on the shoot day. You're the person carrying those requirements into the production room, and making sure that any branded assets that need to be purchased or built are ready on filming day.
•             Be on the ground during shoots to help when Jimmy pivots. When a shoot pivots — you partner with the Activation AD as creative representatives who makes sure the client's core brand needs are still met inside the pivot. 
•             Support brand calls. When the Activation AD is on a client call and the conversation gets into creative trade-offs (e.g. "we had to cut the second product beat because it didn't fit the runtime"), you're the person on the call who can explain the trade-off if necessary.
•             Feed learnings back to the Pitch Creative Lead. Patterns you see in production — what actually works when it hits the studio, what breaks — inform the next round of pre-sale concepts.

What we're looking for (candidate profile)

•             10–15 years of experience in branded content production, integrated production creative direction, or in-studio creative operations at a network, streamer, agency production arm, or top-tier creator studio.
•             Native production floor experience. You have been on sets. You have been in edit bays. You understand the operational rhythm of production and post — call sheets, shot lists, dailies, edit locks — well enough to insert brand needs at exactly the right point in the workflow.
•             Writers' room fluency. You can sit in a writers' room and contribute meaningfully — not by writing the video, but by advocating for the brand-integration beat inside the creative structure. This is a distinctive skill and a required one.
•             Studio-adjacent geography. This role requires meaningful presence at the Studio (Greenville).
•             Comfort with high-frequency pivots. MrBeast's creative process pivots. That's the operating model. You need to be someone whose default response to a pivot is "here's how we protect the brand need inside the new plan" — not frustration that the plan changed.
