The Role

This is a senior leadership hire at a pivotal moment for North Six in Europe. You will be the driving force behind production excellence across the region - setting standards, managing key client relationships, and ensuring every project, from a single-market fashion campaign to a multi-territory broadcast or live event, is delivered at the highest level. You are as comfortable on a shoot as you are in a boardroom, and you roll up your sleeves to bid and execute when the job demands it.

Strategic Leadership

• Define and execute the production strategy for Europe and the UK, aligned with North Six’s global vision

• Act as the senior production voice in the region, representing North Six in client conversations, pitches, and industry forums

• Oversee and support local production teams across the European and UK offices - providing guidance, setting expectations, and stepping in where needed to ensure standards are met and teams are set up to succeed

• Work closely with the US and European CEOs, Chief Growth Officer, and Global President to evolve capabilities, service offerings, and pricing structures

• Partner with the Chief Growth Officer and local business development teams to identify growth opportunities within existing accounts and across new prospects

• Build and maintain strong relationships with agency producers, art buyers, and heads of content across key European markets

• Help position North Six not just as a production partner to agencies, but as a full-service creative and strategic partner - as we build out our broader creative and content services offer

Operational Excellence

• Oversee all production activity across European and UK offices, ensuring consistent delivery standards, on-time and on-budget

• Establish robust production workflows, processes, and tooling that scale across a multi-office, multi-time zone environment

• Lead resource planning, balancing in-house capacity with a trusted network of freelancers, vendors, and co-production partners

• Own the regional production P&L: budgeting, forecasting, and margin management

• Pivot fluidly between disciplines: broadcast, fashion campaigns, social content, print, motion, and live events: bringing the same rigor and craft to each

• Embrace technology and innovation as part of the toolkit - we want someone genuinely curious about what AI and emerging tools can do for our work, and who wants to help shape how we build that in

Client & Creative Partnership

• Serve as the senior production partner for key European and UK accounts ; including LVMH, PVH, Chanel, Kering, Nike, Inditex, and Puig; building trusted, long-term relationships with brand and agency stakeholders

• Build strong relationships with the agent community- working closely with agents for photographers, directors, and talent to attract the best to our projects, and negotiating rates, fees, usage, and terms directly and efficiently

• Navigate complex, multi-territory productions - managing location logistics, union requirements, permits, rights, and local regulations across multiple markets simultaneously

• Lead on pitches and treatments, demonstrating North Six’s production capabilities and strategic thinking

People & Culture

• Lead, mentor, and develop a high-performing team of producers, production managers, and coordinators across European and UK offices

• Foster a culture of collaboration, accountability, creativity, and kindness - consistent with North Six’s values

• Create clear pathways for progression and professional development within the team

• 10+ years of production experience at the highest level, built across the European luxury fashion, beauty, or high-end advertising landscape; Paris and/or London experience strongly preferred

• Genuine cross-discipline range: broadcast, fashion and beauty campaigns, social content, print and motion, and large-scale experiential events ; with deep roots in luxury and fashion

• Real on-the-ground production experience is non-negotiable; you need to have done the job, not just managed the people who do it; agency-side understanding is a plus, but production is your foundation

• An established network of agency producers, art buyers, creative directors, and agents across Europe

• A genuine passion for creativity and a clear point of view on what great looks like; as comfortable discussing aesthetics as logistics and budgets

• Deep knowledge of the European production landscape; crew networks, locations, suppliers, unions, permits, and local working practices

• Strong commercial acumen with direct P&L ownership experience

• Comfortable operating at C-suite level internally and externally, and with significant international travel

• Fluency in English essential; French a strong advantage; Spanish or Italian also valued

• A senior leadership seat at one of the world’s leading content production agencies; at the moment it becomes something even more

• Based in Paris, London or Amsterdam, at the heart of the global luxury fashion industry

• An extraordinary client roster and genuinely world-class creative work

• Competitive compensation and benefits
