The Role:
We are seeking an Executive to help manage Netflix's original Turkish content (TV and film). The role, of Manager, Production Management, is a permanent position that will report to the Director & Head of Production - Türkiye, based out of Istanbul. This Production team is responsible for supervising all operational aspects of original content produced for Netflix in Türkiye and plays a key role in executing Netflix's original content strategy in the region.
Responsibilities include: managing multiple projects in different stages of production, reviewing production plans and budgets, providing early guidance for projects in the development phase, curating and supporting local production relationships, and supporting/suggesting best practices from pre-production through delivery.
This is a demanding and fast-moving position and a successful candidate will be proactive, innovative, self-driven, and able to juggle multiple and diverse responsibilities with a strong emphasis on organization and attention to detail at all times.
We want people from different backgrounds to feel expected, reflected, and respected at Netflix, and therefore we are committed to providing an accessible working environment for everyone.
Specific responsibilities include, but are not limited to:
• Work closely with Creative Executives to set up new productions by reviewing and proposing Production Partners, key heads of departments, schedules, and budgets, to flag possible production issues and identify solutions.
• Work with different Netflix departments such as Post Production, VFX, Creative, Finance, Legal, Comms, Public Policy & external production teams on establishing workflows across multiple projects simultaneously in different phases of production and support key stakeholders by providing the context and/or expertise in business-critical decisions.
• Support the Head of Production and Production Org team to develop, communicate and implement an operational strategy for the local slate of Netflix projects.
• Review scripts and work with internal teams, Executive Producers, Producers and Line Producers to vet show budgets and schedules, providing feedback on viability and risks.
• Work closely with the Finance team to track & manage all costs, keeping stakeholders informed and working with external partners to ensure we meet deadlines and stay within budget.
• Collaborate with internal teams including Safety, Security, HR and Inclusion to support Production Partners in providing safe, inclusive production spaces.
• Regularly align with Netflix colleagues across EMEA and the Globe to share best practices and integrate new learnings from other regions.
• Identify industry trends and potential opportunities for operational improvement.
• Support production training initiatives in Türkiye.
• Challenge existing approaches, and suggest new ways to solve issues on various productions.
Qualifications:
• Extensive production management experience as a Line Producer, Production Executive, Producer or Head of Production.
• Experience managing the production of local Turkish TV and/or feature films. Knowledge of the service market for international productions is desirable but not a requirement.
• Ability to handle a fast-paced environment simultaneously supervising multiple projects at various points of production (from development through delivery).
• Access to a roster of high-quality vendors and talent in the region and strong familiarity across the Turkish production ecosystem.
• Experience and ability to build and maintain strong relationships with our production partners and internal cross-functional relationships.
• Flexible attitude to work, able to respond to urgent or important matters in a timely manner.
• Ability to be discrete and maintain confidential information, with a solid understanding of how to prioritize and respond accordingly.
