Senior Social Creative Producer

About Happy Yolk

Happy Yolk is a creative social media agency.

We help ambitious brands earn attention through social media by creating strategies, campaigns and content that people genuinely want to engage with. Our clients in clude Samsung, Too Good To Go, Pooky Lights, Nkuku, Redbrick Mill, Weaver Green, Regrettable Games, Dermalux and many more.

Fun fact: We're the guys behind World Record Egg, a successful global campaign to get a picture of an egg to be the most liked picture on Instagram.

Everything we do starts with strategy. From long-term social thinking and creator partnerships to beautifully crafted campaigns and premium content production, we help brands show up in ways that feel culturally relevant, creatively distinctive and commercially effective.

As our clients continue to invest in bigger, more ambitious creative campaigns, we're looking for someone to lead the production function that brings those ideas to life.

The Opportunity

We're looking for someone who combines exceptional creative instinct with world-class production expertise.

Someone with great taste. Someone who instinctively knows what elevates an idea from good to unforgettable, who loves discovering brilliant creative talent and who gets genuine satisfaction from making beautiful work happen.

You'll own creative production across the agency, leading campaigns from the very first conversation through to final delivery. Working alongside our Social Strategy, Creative and Client Services teams, you'll ensure every campaign is beautifully executed, creatively distinctive and designed for social-first audiences.

This is about producing shoots as much as it is about defining the creative production standards at Happy Yolk, building an exceptional production team and helping establish us as one of the UK's most exciting social-first creative agencies.

What You'll Do

Creative Leadership

You'll help shape the creative direction of every production we create.

Working closely with Strategy and Creative, you'll translate social media strategies into ambitious campaigns that people genuinely want to engage with.

You'll:

• Lead integrated campaigns from creative concept through to final delivery.
• Develop original production approaches that elevate creative ideas.
• Build creative territories, visual references, treatments and mood boards.
• Ensure every campaign delivers against one cohesive creative vision.
• Champion exceptional craft across every production.
• Constantly bring fresh thinking, cultural insight and new ways for brands to tell their stories.
• Raise the creative standard across the agency.
• We're looking for someone who doesn't just execute ideas - but makes them better.

Client Partnership

You'll become a trusted creative partner to our clients.

Collaborating with an Account Director from Happy Yolk and our clients, who are founders, marketing teams and brand leaders, you'll help shape campaigns from the earliest conversations through to final delivery.

You'll:

• Build long-term relationships based on trust, creativity and exceptional delivery.
• Lead creative production meetings, workshops and campaign planning sessions.
• Present creative concepts, production approaches and visual direction with confidence.
• Translate client objectives and social strategies into beautifully executed campaigns.
• Challenge briefs constructively and identify creative opportunities clients may not have considered.

• The best creative producers don't simply manage productions—they become trusted creative advisors.

Creative Production

You'll own every stage of production.

From planning through to delivery, you'll ensure every campaign is delivered on time, on budget and to the highest creative standard.

Responsibilities include:

• Building production plans and timelines.
• Managing production budgets.

Creative Direction

You'll play a leading role on every production.

You'll brief photographers, directors, videographers, editors, stylists, creators and talent, ensuring everyone is working towards one creative vision.

Throughout every project you'll constantly ask:

• What story are we telling?
• What do we want people to feel?
• Does this feel true to the brand?
• Is this memorable?
• Will this stop someone scrolling?

Build Happy Yolk's Creative Network

One of the biggest parts of this role is building and nurturing Happy Yolk's network of creative collaborators.

You'll have an outstanding eye for talent and know exactly who to bring into each brief - whether that's directors, photographers, DOPs, editors, stylists, prop stylists, set designers, creators or specialist makers.

You'll continually grow our creative network, ensuring we're always working with the very best people.

This is a genuine leadership role where you will mentor our existing production team while helping shape what comes next.

You'll:

• Build scalable production systems and processes.
• Improve efficiencies without compromising creativity.
• Create an environment where brilliant ideas can thrive.
• Play a key role in future production hires as Happy Yolk continues to grow.

Help Shape The Agency

As one of our senior team members, you'll have a genuine influence over the future of the agency. We're in an exciting stage!

We want you to challenge the way we work, improve processes, discover new creative talent and help shape the reputation we're building.

Your impact should be felt not only in the work we create, but in the team and culture we continue to build.

What We're Looking For

You'll probably have significant experience within a social agency, creative, advertising or production agency and be looking for an opportunity where you can have a much bigger impact.

You'll have:

• Exceptional creative judgement and visual taste.
• A deep, demonstrable understanding of social media and social storytelling.
• Experience leading productions across film, photography and digital.
• Confidence directing creative teams and talent on set.
• Strong production planning and budget management skills.
• An outstanding network of creative collaborators - or the ambition to build one.
• Excellent communication and presentation skills.
• A collaborative leadership style.
• A passion for interiors, lifestyle, design and culture.
• Most importantly, you'll be excited by building something.

This role is a chance to make a real mark.

You'll have a huge influence on the creative work we produce, the standards we set and the team we continue to build. As the agency grows, you'll have the opportunity to grow with it - shaping our production department, building your own team and progressing into a senior leadership role such as Head of Creative Production or similar.
