Not to knock this recruiter, but I really think we’ve lost track of what a Senior Producer vs. an EP is.

This recruiter (or agency) is looking for a Senior Producer with the experience of an Executive Producer. They just don’t want to pay for an EP. So they don’t even know what they’re looking for.

Things like this is how people are set up for success or failure. Recruiters need to be better, and agencies need to know what they’re looking for.

Idk this looks like a senior producer role to me. EP oversees other producers and all productions their team is working on from a high level. Senior producers should be senior enough to handle any type of production big or small.

I think the problem is more that producers expect to be promoted like account people, meanwhile there are only 4x rungs of producer and like 20x for account.

My experience is the same as EP 1. This role description seems like a Sr to me. I also manage SOWs, capacity, leadership responsibilities within the agency and with my clients.

This person seems to be asking for a LINE PRODUCER as part of the job description? What does “commanding” mean? And yes, this sounds more like an SP role.

What a multi crew set? Like photo video social etc?

It sounds like a Senior Producer given the workload described. And they should maybe consider hiring 2 producers because this sounds like a ton of work. This recruiter is describing a huge scope and range of projects.

I’ve been doing exactly this at a mid level role 😐😐

I’m struggling. I left an agency I liked last year due to growth limitations and since then I’ve worked at 2 different agencies and can’t seem to find my footing. The first one seemed like a good fit at first but then it turned out to not be the best place for me so I left. At my current agency I feel super undervalued. I’m always raising my hand and offering to help where I can and no matter what I do, I don’t feel utilized or valued or part of the team.It’s really taken a toll on my confidence
