About the role

The Creative Crew Lead is a hands-on shift supervisor who bridges the gap between frontline production and management. Reporting to the Creative Crew Manager, you'll be the main operational support to the Creative Crew Manager and support a team of Creative Associates while remaining actively involved in daily capture operations. This role is responsible for helping the team stay on pace, maintain quality, and quickly address issues that could impact output.

• Perform hands-on product capture, styling, and quality checks as needed to support shift momentum and model strong execution for the team.
• Monitor individual and team performance against daily capture targets, quality expectations, and workflow standards, and step in quickly when pace, accuracy, or output begins to fall behind.
• Communicate shift priorities, production updates, and challenges to the Creative Crew Manager and collaborate on solutions.
• Train new Creative Associates on capture techniques, equipment operation, and quality standards.
• Identify patterns impacting throughput, quality, or team effectiveness and escalate them with clear observations and recommendations.
• Help maintain a positive, high-accountability team environment centered on collaboration, consistency, urgency, and continuous improvement.
• Set the tone for the shift by keeping the team engaged, motivated, and focused through consistent in-the-moment feedback, recognition, and accountability.

Our ideal candidate will have:

• 1+ years of experience in production environments, with at least 1 year in a lead, supervisor, or team lead capacity.

• Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities and keep teams moving in a fast-paced environment.
• Comfortable coaching and developing teammates with clarity, patience, and accountability.
• Hands-on problem-solver who thrives on removing obstacles and keeping production flowing.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to work effectively across teams.
• Experience with photography, styling, or studio production is a plus.
• Comfortable working with robotics, technical equipment, and evolving workflows.
• Ability to read, write, and speak in English.
• Ability to stand and walk for extended periods.
