The role
The media and post production landscape continues to evolve and ITV Studios are taking the opportunity to review how services in this space are delivered. Can we adopt innovative cloud-based workflows and AI tooling to streamline our processes, enhance our creativity and unlock the full potential in our intellectual property?
To help shape this potential future direction, we are seeking a Product Manager on a fixed term contract basis to join the programme, to inject true product-based thinking and help define proofs of concept, pilots, toolsets, and ongoing product evolutions.
As a Product Manager within the Studios Technology product team, you will lead user-focussed analysis and assessment of the current media asset landscape, understanding the myriad of ways ITV Studios manages media and delivers post production activities. Armed with this understanding, you will work in collaboration with architects, analysts, engineers and colleagues from production, technology and operations to help define the future direction of travel for media asset management and post production. You will build and deliver visions, roadmaps and backlogs and test through PoC, pilots and beyond, embedding policies, guidelines and tooling to deliver best in class functionality, using OKRs and KPIs to demonstrate real value across the business from production to exploitation.
The team
Together, the Studios Technology team shape and deliver the technology which powers our global content business, from the tools our production teams use to create brilliant programmes, to the systems that help us discover and sell that content around the world.
The Future Post Production project is focussed on enabling transformation in the Post Production and Media Asset Management space, delivered by a cross-functional team of architects, analysts, engineers and experts from our in-house post production teams across the world.
We promote a collaborative culture, open to new ideas and perspectives and with a focus on learning and innovation. You will work in collaboration with a cross-functional team but also aligned with a team of Product Managers across the product portfolio.
