Producer

Job Description

Kurppa Hosk is a brand agency with close to 80 employees across our offices in Stockholm and New York. We solve complex business problems by combining the sharpest strategic minds with the best designers in the industry, working across sectors to serve some of the world’s most renowned and progressive brands. As we continue to grow our office in Stockholm, we’re looking to bring on board a Producer who can help us strive for both operational and design excellence.

We are looking for someone who thrives in an entrepreneurial setting and a fast-paced creative environment. As a person, you like to push the boundaries and as such, are able to adapt your experiences and take on new challenges if required. Even if this means stepping out of your comfort zone from time to time, you maintain an attitude of ‘anything is possible’.

As the go-to person for both clients and the Kurppa Hosk team, it’s important that you are as organized as you are a creative problem solver — and that you enjoy working in collaborative team set-ups with people from different backgrounds and with varying skill sets. You have a proven track record of managing project lifecycles from beginning to end, getting the best out of cross-disciplinary teams to create brand experiences that can travel across platforms. Good experience managing large and small digital projects is also highly desirable.

You are detail-oriented but are also able to take a step back and see the bigger strategic and logistical picture — identifying opportunities and challenges that lie ahead. In playing the dual role of client advocate and Kurppa Hosk team advocate, you understand that administrative tasks are a necessity when it comes to creating value for money. Likewise, you recognize that close collaboration, both internally and externally, is key to ensuring the optimal levels of success for all projects.

Main responsibilities:

• Autonomous management of brand design, digital design, and product development projects.
• Project planning and definition of project scope and approach, including objectives, deliverables, schedule, and budget.
• Keeping projects on track and ensuring the delivery of project deliverables on time, on budget, and to the highest quality.
• Manage interdisciplinary teams to execute conceptual work and subsequent implementation of defined deliverables; establishing the most viable approach and ensuring that every team member understands their role, tasks, and deadlines.
• Prepare, lead, and follow up on client meetings, keeping stakeholders informed, internally as well as externally.
• Prepare monthly forecasts and budget reconciliations, resource bookings, and client invoicing.
• Management of third-party vendors.

The ideal person:

• Substantial experience in a similar role and proven track record of successfully managing sizeable brand, communication, and/or digital development projects.
• Is eager to grow further within our Producer guild, and support the continuous development of the guild.
• Has great communication skills in English, both verbally and and writing. (KH is English-first.)
• Understands digital channels and the corresponding UX and UI design principles, as well as the underlying interactive development technologies (for both web and mobile).
• Has had training in, and/or experience with, agile project management methodologies.
• Minimum education level BA or equivalent education in relevant field; for example from Berghs or Hyper Island.
