The Agency
SECTION is a digital creative company, and we believe in digital—a lot. We are often engaged by brands that depend on digital channels to speak/listen to their target audiences. The ways we create storytelling channels for clients are not restricted by guidelines but empowered by our beliefs and research. We welcome you if you believe in creativity, technology, and scalability. We are after people who are most talented when they are passionate and driven.
The Team
You will be part of the Systems team—the team that keeps things grounded and are the guardians of the should-dos, to-dos, and no-gos in a system. With a 360-degree point of view, we drill down to the details to build the team required and articulate how interactions should be facilitated.
Workflows are our jam and our secret sauce to bring every player in the system together. We partner internal team members, clients and external vendors from system takeover to handover
Your Role
The Systems team was formed to diversify Section’s unprecedented portfolio of system maintenance projects. You will need to maintain a positive and resilient attitude in managing a world of unknowns, solve problems by breaking down complex issues into smaller tasks, while balancing client requests and system potentials.
A successful Digital Producer in the Systems team possesses an intellectual curiosity with inclination towards a possible action at the end of it.
You are a highly motivated individual who thrives in situations that require you to wear multiple hats to solve resource crunches, curveballs and other problems that may arise.
As the anchor of the projects under your care, apart from acting as part-Project Manager and part-Client Partner, you will actively provide insights and feedback to internal team members in-charge of building the framework tools that can be further customised to your project needs.
You will be involved in the full planning of the product/system maintenance cycle, working collaboratively and efficiently to drive projects from post production to release and optimisation. You nimbly assist internal and external team members to make swift decisions for project planning. While doing these, you develop new skills like prototyping, test plans and analytics plans.

Your Past

You could have done so much more, and the Systems team is welcoming of individuals from diverse backgrounds, with a thirst for knowledge and the interest in details beyond what is presented.
