Framestore is hiring

Production Manager

Supervisor
Contract
Hybrid in London, United Kingdom

Framestore's Virtual Production (VP) team is at the heart of our most forward-thinking projects, supporting Film, TV, VR, and Advertising - involved in everything from performance capture and virtual camera work to photogrammetry and realtime LED workflows.


We are looking for a Production Manager to join our Virtual Production team in London. As the VP Production Manager, you’ll be the Producer’s right hand, helping to push the boundaries of the VFX pipeline. You’ll lead the day-to-day logistics on set and in the studio, ensuring our Capture and VP Leads have exactly what they need to succeed. This is a brilliant opportunity for someone who enjoys the energy of a shoot and wants to play a key part in crafting the next generation of visual storytelling.


You'll act as our primary point of contact on set, managing the flow of capture-related work and making sure every shoot day runs like clockwork. Ensuring all security protocols are met, you’ll deliver project post-mortems and handle partner communications whenever the Producer is away.


You’ll also be:

  • Organising capture and shoot days, including booking talent, crew, and specialised equipment
  • Managing project schedules, crewing, and deliverables while maintaining strong vendor relationships to secure the best rates
  • Partnering with technical leads to define workflows, project milestones, and clear delivery plans
  • Proactively identifying risks and solving problems on the fly to keep production moving
  • Supervising Coordinators and PAs on a project basis and assisting with bidding for upcoming shows


Job requirements


Essential skills:

  • Previous experience in on-set motion capture or virtual production management/coordination
  • A solid understanding of on-set roles and decision-making channels
  • The ability to work independently and communicate clearly in a fast-paced environment
  • A proven ability to build and maintain rapport with both crew and clients
  • Strong attention to detail with a drive to improve operational efficiencies
  • Proficiency with resource management tools and Microsoft Excel


Nice to have:

  • UK driving licence
  • Strong knowledge of Virtual Production technical essentials
We work with you to create amazing images that entertain, communicate, influence and shape people’s views about subjects as diverse as health, music, films, television and many aspects of our society.

We create our work by getting to know what you are aspiring to do with the images we are creating with you, by getting to know your business and its strategy, and by striving to always deliver images that delight and not only hit your brief but often exceed your expectations – those are the milestones we measure ourselves by.

With more than 600 colleagues our team and skills range from computer science graduates, through to world class producers, CG artists who innovate in both production methodology as well as imagery, software developers and creators who have deep insight to how to apply often complex technology solutions to the creative process.

We work with partner clients each year in most parts of the world, with colleagues often on location in over a dozen countries in any one year.

We continue to be pleased to see our work recognised both for the success that they help create for our clients (in box office or product sales) but also for artistic and strategic achievement – all three elements which we strive to achieve each time we work with you.

Our clients include most leading advertising agencies, Hollywood studios, and major brands such as Nokia, Coca Cola, Nestlé, Unilever, Procter & Gamble, Pepsi, Volkswagen and Cadbury.
