Opportunity: Dulcedo’s HYPERMUSE Studio is seeking a Creative Project Manager to drive end-to-end AI image and video productions from kickoff to delivery, balancing internal initiatives like IP development with high touch client management and proactive revenue growth through pitching. Ideal candidates have 6+ years in a creative agency, VFX, cinema, or social-first environment, excel at multiple parallel projects, and bring strong production instincts with a calm, proactive leadership style. To apply, tailor your resume to show end-to-end delivery, client stewardship, and measurable outcomes; highlight familiarity with AI pipelines, licensing sensitivities, scalable workflows, and your ability to protect creative intent while turning ambiguity into momentum.
The Opportunity: We’re looking for a Creative Project Manager—the operational engine and management pillar that keeps the studio moving from first client call to final delivery. In this role, you will seamlessly balance the execution of our internal initiatives—like proprietary IP and avatar development—with high-touch client management and proactive studio revenue growth through pitching and prospecting .
Bringing presence, taste, and fire, you will run fast-paced productions across AI image and video while keeping a sharp eye on timeline logistics, production effort, and project profitability. We need a PM who can confidently guide stakeholders through an evolving technological landscape, protect creative intent in early conversations, and turn ambiguity into clear momentum—without slowing the studio down.
Your Role
- Own end-to-end delivery of AI image/video projects - from kickoff to final delivery - across multiple clients and timelines.
- Lead client communication throughout: run production check-ins, manage expectations, drive next steps, and ensure feedback is consolidated into clear, actionable direction.
- Partner on early-stage alignment: support the brief intake and concept alignment phase by asking smart questions, challenging assumptions, and helping refine the scope into an executable plan.
- Build the production framework for each project: timelines, milestones, review cycles, approval gates, versioning, and “definition of done” for every deliverable.
- Run working sessions with Creative + Production to keep output flowing, remove blockers, and maintain momentum during rapid iteration.
- Create clean systems and documentation: briefs, alignment notes, review trackers, handoff packages, delivery folders - everything organized, traceable, and client-ready.
- Manage trust and compliance signals (without being heavy): ensure clarity on what’s being produced, what’s being delivered, and what the client is approving - avoiding any “black box” feeling.
- Continuously improve how the studio runs: identify bottlenecks, refine workflows, and implement better processes as volume grows.
Your Profile
- At least 6 years of project management experience in a creative agency, VFX studio, cinema production environment, 3D animation studio, or social-first marketing agency.
- Proven experience managing multiple projects in parallel with high client touch, tight timelines, and lots of stakeholders.
- Strong production instincts: you understand how creative work is made (including traditional photoshoots and image construction) and how to keep it moving without draining the team.
- Excellent client presence and a proactive commercial mindset: confident leading calls, handling pressure, building strong relationships, and driving revenue through client pitching and prospection.
- Highly organized and systems-minded: you bring structure that enables creativity.
- Comfortable in fast-moving environments where tools and workflows evolve quickly
- Enough creative sensitivity to contribute: you can spot risks, ask the right questions, and help shape direction.
- Experience building scalable workflows in a growing studio or start-up environment.
- Big Plus: Experience working with AI-enabled or rapid-iteration creative pipelines (or a strong curiosity and real exposure to AI tools/work).
- Familiarity with usage rights / licensing sensitivities in content production (helpful in AI contexts)
