The Role

We're hiring an Executive Producer to own our agency partnerships lane and director talent development. 


You'll be responsible for growing and managing Vagrants' agency-direct business, representing us in key markets, and staying close to the work as an EP when your involvement matters. It's a sales and production hybrid, and the right person is someone who has done both.

Who You Are

You've spent real time in commercial production — as a producer, an EP, a rep, or some combination. You understand how agencies buy production, who the real decision-makers are, and how to build the kind of trust that brings repeat business.


You're connected. You have relationships in at least one major market and you know how to build them in others. You lead with your production knowledge, not just your network.


You're self-directed. You see where the opportunity is and you go after it.


What You'll Do Agency Relationships •Build and maintain relationships with agency producers, creative directors, and heads of production across priority markets
• Open doors with new agencies and keep existing partners active and engaged

• Represent Vagrants in your market — at treatments, on bids, in the rooms where decisions get made Director Development

• Manage and grow Vagrants roster of director relationships that keeps Vagrants competitive in bid pools

• Know which directors fit which briefs and make the case for them with confidence

• Develop the roster over time via research and meeting new directors to stay ahead of where agency demand is heading

• Meet with directors to identify opportunities to collaborate and support their growth Reel Submissions

• Lead the reel submission process for agency opportunities

• Source directors, build reels, and represent Vagrants' point of view on talent

• Use bid outcomes to continuously improve how we show up in pitch pools


Production Involvement

• EP on priority accounts and new client relationships — present on set and client-facing when it matters

• Budget oversight: review the bid, stay close to cost, ensure smooth delivery

• Collaborate with our in-house producers to weigh production approaches and ensure smooth handoffs. 

• When things get complicated, you're in it — not watching from the outside What You Bring

• 7+ years in commercial production, EP, business development, or a combination

• Deep familiarity with the ad agency landscape — you know how agencies work, who makes the production decisions, and what they care about

• A real network in at least one key market: Nashville, Miami, Atlanta, Chicago, Austin, NYC, or similar

• Experience EPing commercial projects — you're comfortable on set, in client meetings, and managing a production budget

• The ability to recruit and manage other production professionals


Compensation

- Base salary: $90,000 – $150,000, commensurate with experience

- Health Insurance and 401(k) match

- Flexible PTO 

- Team pool bonus based on revenue goals

- Total compensation package: $125,000 – $180,000+ in a strong year
