Permanent (Full-Time) – Broadcast / Advertising – London - Salary Commensurate with Experience - 4+ years minimum experience required.

The Role:

Our client is seeking an Asset Manager to work within the Moving Image department. The role focuses on the management of incoming master assets for localisation production, the QC and validation of assets and their subsequent tagging and archiving onto the media servers, in readiness for use in live projects. This role requires a knowledge of post-production processes.

The Asset Manager will work alongside our producers/account managers to oversee and follow up on the numerous asset supplies they receive each week, initially focusing on the three major accounts. There will be no client-facing element to this role, but there may be a requirement to liaise with originating post-production houses to facilitate resupplies of assets which have failed QC.

The ideal candidate will be highly motivated and driven, calm under pressure and with a technical understanding of moving image video formats and post production workflows. In addition, a keen sense of time management, a good eye for attention to detail and strong organisational skills are all essential.

The successful candidate will be capable of working at a fast pace and managing large volumes of work simultaneously.

Responsibilities (including but not limited to):

• Manage and produce the flow of master materials entering the department
• Work with TV Producers to obtain a clear understanding of each asset supply received including the creation of job numbers on the internal booking system where required
• Book Edit Assistants, Video Editors and Audio Coordinators to QC & validate the files and ensure they are fit for purpose
• Convey timings to the producer so that they can advise client/agency on when to expect QC/validation feedback
• Ensure that a full Asset QC & Validation report has been completed by the relevant teams for each supply
• Convey any flags/advisories to the producer/account manager who booked the work
• Liaise with producers/asset managers in order to gain insight into upcoming asset supplies
• Hold pencils on the internal booking system
• Ensure the smooth transition of handing over any work and status of assets
• Qualifications & Experience:
• Excellent communication skills
• Thorough knowledge of all Microsoft Office products
• Administration capabilities

Our client is committed to Diversity, Equity & Inclusion
