About the role

SÓKÈ is looking for a Head of Creative Production to lead the company's creative execution function. This role is responsible for ensuring that creative work across design, copy, video and other production disciplines is delivered to a consistently high standard, within project scope and on time. The role combines creative judgment, production leadership, quality control and team development. You will work closely with Project Management, Channel Management and other SÓKÈ functions to translate strategy and commercial requirements into strong creative execution. This is not simply a senior designer role. We are looking for someone who can build and lead a reliable creative production system.

Responsibilities

• Lead SÓKÈ's Creative Production function across client projects.
• Maintain and continuously improve creative quality standards.
• Review and approve creative work before final delivery where required.
• Coordinate designers, copywriters, video editors and other creative specialists.
• Match creative specialists to project requirements and production needs.
• Work with Project Managers and Channel Executives to translate briefs into executable creative outputs.
• Build and maintain production workflows, templates and quality-control systems.
• Monitor creative capacity, deadlines and delivery risks.
• Coach and develop emerging creative talent within SÓKÈ.
• Support the development of SÓKÈ's specialist creative network.
• Contribute to estimating production requirements and specialist capacity for projects.

What you bring

• Strong demonstrated experience in creative production, design, content or a related discipline.
• Strong visual and creative judgment.
• Ability to evaluate the quality of work beyond personal stylistic preference.

• Strong project and deadline management skills.
• Ability to give clear, constructive creative feedback.
• Strong communication and collaboration skills.
• Comfortable working within structured briefs, business objectives and commercial constraints.
• Ability to build systems and processes rather than relying only on individual creative talent.
