Founded in 2012, LADbible Group is redefining entertainment and news for a social generation. Our global community engages with our content–spanning editorial, video, documentary and live – we reach 1 billion people each and every month. Our mission is to give the youth generation a voice by building communities that laugh, think and act. Using all major platforms, we’ve rapidly risen to become one of the world's largest publishers. 

About the Role 

The Originals team creates quality, long-form content for YouTube, broadcast and podcast platforms, designed to be shareable across LADbible Group’s social channels. We’re the team behind popular shows like Snack Wars, Minutes With, Honesty Box and Agree to Disagree.

We’re looking for a Production Manager with commercial/sponsorship experience to play a key role in delivering sponsored content, social-first productions, and large-scale activations that bring commercial partnerships to life. You’ll ensure every campaign meets client expectations while feeling authentic to the LADbible voice and resonating with our audience.

What the opportunity looks like 

• Lead end-to-end production of sponsored content and commercial campaigns, managing shoots, timelines, budgets, resources, and vendors.

• Act as the primary liaison for Client Services, translating commercial agreements into actionable production plans.

• Oversee sponsorship deliverables, ensuring campaigns integrate brands naturally while meeting editorial and platform standards.

• Coordinate all production logistics including studios, locations, crews, talent, and post-production across UK and international shoots to deliver high-quality, on-brand content.

• Build and manage production budgets, negotiate competitive rates with suppliers and freelancers, and maintain profitability while protecting creative integrity.

• Support pitch processes with production feasibility, costing insights, and client-friendly solutions.

• Continuously improve internal production processes to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of sponsor-led campaigns.

Skills and experience we'd like you to have 

• 5+ years' experience in commercial/sponsored content production management, ideally within digital media.

• Strong track record delivering sponsor-led campaigns and commercial content.

• Good understanding of social platforms (Meta, TikTok, YouTube, Snapchat) and how to integrate sponsorship effectively.

• Proven ability to manage multiple high-volume projects simultaneously while keeping calm under pressure.

• Excellent budgeting, negotiation, and commercial oversight skills.

• Highly organised, proactive, and able to collaborate across teams to deliver creative, platform-native content that satisfies both audience and client objectives.

• Strong communication skills, with the ability to maintain excellent relationships with internal teams, clients, and stakeholders.

At LADbible Group we've rolled out blended working which means the majority of departments across the business (including London, Manchester and International offices) work in the office 3 days per week.

LADbible Group is an equal opportunities employer. We are determined to create a diverse group at all levels of our company and we welcome all members of the community to apply for openings with us. As the leading social youth publisher, we have a powerful global platform to better represent our audience and enable those that do not have equal opportunities to have their voices heard. As a business, we are committed to building a diverse and inclusive workforce, in an environment where everyone feels comfortable to be themselves.
