Account & New Business Producer

If, to you, “developing business” means more than sending three (3) LinkedIn messages and then declaring the market dead, you might be the right person.

At WowProduction, the video production company within the WowHaus Group, we're looking for a Business Producer / Account.

In other words, someone with a commercial mindset who also thinks like an account manager. But not the kind of person whose first question is how many thousands of euros we should spend on advertising. We've got that covered.

We're looking for someone who knows how to build relationships, spot opportunities, interpret a brief, understand whether a project makes sense, shape a proposal together with the team, and ultimately win the work.

Today, WowProduction primarily works on corporate video productions, social media content, event coverage, branded content, and integrated communication projects, often developed in collaboration with the group's communication agency, WowSolution. They're pretty good.

Over the past few years, we've built strong expertise in the events industry, particularly in the premium and luxury sectors: launch campaigns, event coverage, corporate events, and projects involving international brands and high-profile contexts.

What You Should Do

If you want to. If not, no.

We even had a meeting about this, so read this list with the respect that a list born from a meeting and a debrief deserves:

• Develop new business opportunities for WowProduction.
• Search for and establish contacts with brands, agencies, event agencies, PR agencies, companies, businesses in the hospitality, luxury, fashion, beverage, entertainment, and corporate sectors.
• Help us build a sensible commercial pipeline, because “let’s see what comes in” is not a strategy, it's meteorology.
• Open conversations with potential clients in Italy and abroad.
• Promote our portfolio, especially in premium events, corporate videos, branded content, reportage, and social-first productions.
• Understand clients' briefs.
• Collaborate with the creative and production team to build proposals, quotations, and presentations.
• Manage the commercial relationship, especially in the early stages, from the first contact to the proposal, all the way through to closing.
• Help build clear packages and offers for events, corporate videos, aftermovies, social content, interviews, campaigns, and recurring formats.
• Keep track of contacts, follow-ups, negotiations, and opportunities using shared tools, instead of relying on Monday morning emotional memory (nothing).
• Bring method, rhythm, and direction to business development.

Who You Should Be

Hopefully.

We're looking for someone who has already worked in sales, account management, production, business development, or project management within creative and production environments.

Like these:

• Branded content;
• Advertising;
• Corporate communication;
• Luxury, fashion, hospitality, beverage, or entertainment.

We're looking for someone who understands what it means to sell a video production: timelines, budgets, crew, locations, permits, post-production, revisions, delivery, the client's anxieties, the team's anxieties, your own anxieties.

You don't necessarily need to know how to edit, shoot, or make TikTok reels.

But you do need to know what you're selling.

Requirements

Still lower than the ones for GTA IV.

• Previous experience in sales, account management, production, business development, or project management roles in creative/production environments.
• Knowledge of the video, communication, events, or branded content industry.
• Ability to manage a commercial negotiation.
• Ability to build and maintain relationships with clients, agencies, and partners.
• Good written and spoken English. Fluent, preferably. You don't need to recite Shakespeare, but at least avoid "ui meic veri emoscional video for your beautiful compani."\
• Excellent organizational skills.
• A genuine commercial attitude, not just "I like talking to people."\
• Ability to work towards goals.
• Familiarity with presentations, quotations, CRM, spreadsheets, follow-ups, and all those not-so-poetic things that nevertheless make companies exist.
• Autonomy, method, and a certain commercial hunger.
• Ability to work with creatives, producers, videomakers, editors, account managers, and clients.
