The role

This is an exciting new role within the Comms and Marketing team to lead the Foundation’s video and podcast strategy. We are in the process of building our own state-of-the-art video media studio at our headquarters in Cambridge and we are looking for an exceptional Executive Producer and Media Studio Manager to deliver our ambition to create high-quality content that reaches millions of people around the world. This role will lead the media studio strategy, build and develop a high-performing studio team, and create quality content from across the organisation. 

The Executive Producer and Media Studio Manager will bring their unique creativity and expertise to help guide and shape existing and new content that raises the profile of the Foundation. You will lead the development, commissioning, and delivery of creative video and audio content that supports educators around the world, tells compelling stories, and drives impact. Working with the Chief Marketing Officer, you will set the creative and editorial vision for our multimedia output, ensuring all content aligns with our mission, values, and strategic goals.

You'll be a creative visionary with a deep understanding of video and podcast content. With your finger on the pulse of the industry, you'll leverage your network and expertise to stay ahead of trends. You'll be a storyteller bursting with ideas and passionate about creating innovative content that truly connects with educators globally. This role requires someone who can inspire a team and make confident, impactful creative decisions. You'll not only have a passion for this work but also a proven ability to lead and deliver.

There are three main aspects to the role:

1. Develop new ideas and produce impactful content for teachers, learners, and volunteers.
2. Elevate the wide variety of video and audio content the Foundation currently produces (e.g. podcast, short-form video, online courses, case study stories etc.).
3. Manage the media studio, with responsibility for strategy, implementation, and studio utilisation.

The role reports to the Chief Marketing Officer in the Communications and Marketing team and sits alongside other senior marketing colleagues. The role will manage a team of four —  two videographers, a content producer, and a production coordinator — bringing them together as a new team and supporting their development. This is a highly collaborative role working with colleagues right across the Foundation. 

We work hard to make sure that the Foundation is a place where everyone is supported to do the best work of their careers. We have a flexible and collaborative approach to all aspects of our work. If you're the right person for the job, we’ll make it work for you, and you can be confident that you’ll be joining an exceptional team of people who care about our mission and each other.
