As Senior Manager, Studio & Creative Production, you'll advance visual storytelling that brings Adtalem's transformation to life. From concept to final cut, you'll craft compelling content across social, digital, and owned channels while owning our in-house broadcast studio operations. Working in close coordination with the communications team, you'll transform complex healthcare narratives into polished visual stories that position our executives as thought leaders and showcase our impact on healthcare.
YOUR DAILY FOCUS:
- Lead visual storytelling with editorial precision — Working closely with the communications team, direct, shoot, and edit content that transforms strategic objectives into compelling stories across YouTube, LinkedIn, Instagram, website, and internal platforms
- Own studio operations end-to-end — Manage Adtalem's broadcast studio including day-to-day operations, production scheduling, equipment maintenance, workflow optimization, and technical setup for live recordings and events
- Produce strategic content across formats — Create executive thought leadership videos, earnings communications, social media content (both short-form and long-form), employee stories, event coverage, and campaign assets that drive engagement and brand elevation
- Edit with vision and craft — Transform raw footage and b-roll into polished narratives; cut compelling executive social content; build motion graphics and animations that enhance storytelling and extend reach across platforms
- Execute productions from concept through distribution — Partner with communications strategists on creative development; script, storyboard, and plan shoots; manage vendor relationships when external production support is needed; ensure seamless execution from pre-production through final delivery
- Maintain brand excellence — Ensure visual consistency, storytelling quality, and strategic alignment across all content while moving quickly in a fast-paced environment
WHAT YOU BRING:
- Visual storytelling expertise and strong creative vision — You understand pacing, emotion, and narrative structure; you know how to direct on-camera talent (especially executives) and make real-time creative decisions that serve business objectives
- Advanced editing mastery — Expert-level proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects; ability to cut compelling narratives from executive interviews, b-roll, and raw footage; strong motion graphics and animation capabilities for social content
- Production excellence — Professional camera operation, lighting design, and audio capture that consistently deliver broadcast-quality results
- Studio management capabilities — Experience running production facilities including workflow systems, equipment maintenance, scheduling, and technical operations
- Collaborative translator — You excel at taking strategic communications objectives and translating them into compelling visual execution; you bring creative solutions while respecting strategic intent and working effectively across teams
- Strategic versatility and autonomy — Equally comfortable concepting a CEO social series, directing a multi-camera earnings production, or executing solo documentary-style shoots; you work independently and move fast
- Meticulous attention to detail — You obsess over color grading, audio mixing, and visual polish; quality matters in every frame
- Vendor management experience — Ability to scope, brief, and manage external production partners when projects require additional resources or specialized expertise
- Portfolio that demonstrates range — Work samples showing executive content, social storytelling, long-form branded videos, motion graphics, and platform-specific formats (LinkedIn, YouTube, Instagram)
