Production Manager, Global Creative - Consumer Products

At Netflix, our mission is to entertain the world. Together, we are writing the next episode - pushing the boundaries of storytelling, global fandom and making the unimaginable a reality. We are a dream team obsessed with the uncomfortable excitement of discovering what happens when you merge creativity, intuition and cutting-edge technology. Come be a part of what’s next.

Our growing global Consumer Products team brings our members' favorite stories to life through products and experiences. The team is responsible for overseeing the business and creative execution across merchandise creation, product development, licensee relationships, publishing, marketing, as well as a global division focused on live experiences.

We’re looking for a Production Manager to manage day-to-day production across the Global Creative team, while helping define and scale how production works, supporting the development of style guides, character art, and asset systems for Netflix Consumer Products.  This is not a traditional production role.  There is no fixed playbook.   This role sits within Global Creative — working directly alongside designers and creative leads to bring work to life with high-level craft and consistency.   You will be responsible for ensuring creative work is delivered at the highest quality — production-ready, technically sound, and built to scale across global use cases.

This role is embedded within Global Creative and is central to how our work comes to life.It requires someone who can balance creative partnership with production rigor — ensuring the work not only looks great, but works seamlessly across every application.   This role is responsible for helping define and evolve the production system — not just operating within it.

What You’ll Do

• Own production across style guides, character art libraries, and asset packs

• Ensure work is delivered on time, on brief, and at a consistently high level of quality

• Partner closely with designers and creative leads from early development through final delivery

• Ensure all assets are cohesive, complete, and built for global application

• Manage production of character art, pose libraries, and supporting assets

• Ensure files are clean, organized, and flexible across categories (apparel, packaging, publishing, etc.)

• Own file prep, QC, and final delivery across print and digital formats

• Troubleshoot and resolve technical challenges (color, format, resolution, repro, etc.)

• Oversee how assets are packaged and delivered to partners

• Ensure files are structured clearly, versioned appropriately, and easy to access across global teams

• Work closely with Creative, Product Development, Operations, and Legal

• Ensure assets meet both creative intent and technical requirements

• Set and enforce production standards across teams

• Flag issues early and hold teams accountable to delivering production-ready work

• Define and evolve workflows, production standards, and best practices

• Identify gaps and implement scalable solutions

• Continuously improve how the team works — increasing speed, clarity, and output quality

What we need from you:

• 7+ years in production design within entertainment, consumer products, or licensing

• Strong experience supporting style guides, character art, or brand systems

• Deep knowledge of file prep, QC, and production workflows across print and digital

• Advanced proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign)

• Strong understanding of color management, repro, file setup, and global production standards

• Experience working across product categories, with an understanding of print methods and limitations

• Ability to design workflows — not just execute within them

• Experience building or improving production systems and processes

• Comfortable identifying gaps and solving for them independently

• Self-directed and proactive; moves work forward without waiting for perfect direction

• Comfortable operating in ambiguity and defining structure where none exists

• Takes accountability for outcomes, not just tasks
