Boulder or Bust: Interactive Producers Wanted for Top Agency (Fulltime, Boulder, CO)

Title: Interactive Producers
Client: Award-Winning Advertising Agency
Location: Boulder, CO
Type: Fulltime

I don't know about you guys, but as a passionate snowboarder who's been active in the sport for about 12 years, the concept of getting to do work that I love and a sport that I love is pretty darn enticing -- which is why I'm so excited to announce this opportunity. Sooo....

Calling all Snowboarders, Skiers and all-around Mountaineers who work in interactive -- have we got the gig for you! The Hired Guns are looking for an interactive producer to join the newly formed office -- located in Boulder, CO -- of one of the hottest creative shops on the planet. This company's HQ is based in Miami and if you don't know who it is by now, no need to apply. [If you're a creative, IA, front end dev or an account person also looking to go West, let us know and we'll get you in play].

Quite frankly, they'd like to hire someone from a NY shop who is ready to take their Big Apple-honed chops and bring them to the mountains. This agency is all about bridging lifestyle and work. A refreshing approach these days!

Most importantly, just because you're in Boulder doesn't mean that you'll be cut off from great projects. Heck no, it's an amazing job opportunity to work with some of the most innovative people in the world on some of the greatest brands. Producers at this Agency go way beyond the PM role, you work very closely with creative -- in fact, before you get hired the Creative Director has to sign off on the way you think! So, if wild and outrageous creative thinking and a strong narrative vision are some of the things you're looking for in your next company, we can promise that you'll find it at this agency.

We want to speak to Producers at all levels, because we're hiring them all: Senior Producer, Producer, Associate Producer. We're also open to talking to individuals or dynamic duos (perhaps you run your own small agency). And our client will pay for relocation to Boulder.

So, if you've built crazy, amazing stuff, we want to hear from you. It should go without saying that you need to be comfortable working on projects with a heavy Flash component. If you're into developing over-the-top interactions (advertising, online games, video, mobile apps) to truly engage consumers (to the point that they forget they're seeing advertising), then you're the person we want to hire. Heck, we're hoping you're thinking about doing stuff that we haven't even imagined yet. Plan to come armed and dangerous with your ideas and opinions in hand.

To get hired you must:

* Be original.
* Be innovative.
* Be a problem solver.
* Be extremely talented and have work that shows off that talent. (hint: get your online portfolio in shape now).
* Be able to juggle multiple projects, be self-motivated, have a positive attitude.
* Be passionate about interactive, advertising, and creative.
* Work hard, have fun, and most of all have the desire do the best work in the world.

The Nuts and Bolts:

The Interactive Producer is responsible for translating creative ideas and concepts into prioritized project plans and deliverables for Internet, mobile, and related content applications. The producer is responsible for overall project success, from project kick-off through completion, and is expected to be a solid team player. You will be required to deliver multiple, often concurrent projects error free, on time or early, on or under budget, all while meeting or exceeding creative objectives and expectations.

The Nice-to-Haves:

* Hands-on development experience.
* Experience working within or providing services to the gaming, film, and entertainment industries.
* Video production or related background.
