Producer, Barkley Films

Kansas City, MO or Denver, CO

Barkley Films is looking for a Producer who thrives in the process of making things. From broadcast to social to branded content, this role helps bring ideas to life across every screen and format. 
 
As a Producer, you’re part conductor, part creative partner. You know how to balance ambition with precision — managing timelines, budgets, and teams without ever losing sight of the big idea. You’ll work side by side with creatives, account leads, and production partners to make the work shine, and the process feel seamless. You’re curious, resourceful, and love turning creative ideas into finished work. You’re comfortable managing moving parts and motivated by the energy of production. You take ownership of your projects, collaborate with care, and are always looking for ways to learn and grow. 

 

Responsibilities: 

  • Manage the day-to-day production workflow on assigned Barkley Films projects; internal and external projects. 
  • Partner with Senior and Executive Producers, Creative, Account, and Project Management teams to plan and execute high-quality productions. 
  • Engage early in creative development to help shape how ideas come to life. 
  • Build and manage production timelines, budgets, and resources with guidance from the Senior Producer. 
  • Work with internal production resources — editors, motion designers, camera operators, and drone cinematographers — as well as external partners including directors, DPs, editors, post-audio vendors, and talent agents. 
  • Source and coordinate production vendors and freelance partners, ensuring clarity around scope, timelines, and deliverables. 
  • Sweat every detail — schedules, budgets, and creative integrity — to make sure everything stays on track. 
  • Stay endlessly curious about new tech, from GenAI and ChatGPT to whatever’s next, and explore how it can push the production process forward. 
  • Advocate for inclusive production practices that align with Barkley’s DEI&B goals. 
  • Bring calm energy, creative problem-solving, and a “let’s make it happen” attitude to every project. 
  • Work closely with Business Affairs to handle rights, clearances, and compliance with SAG-AFTRA and related guidelines. 

 

Qualifications: 

  • 2–4 years of experience in production, advertising, or a related creative field. 
  • Working knowledge of production processes from pre-production through post. 
  • Experience collaborating with creative teams, clients, and vendors. 
  • Strong communication, organization, and multitasking skills. 
  • A proactive mindset and the ability to stay composed under pressure. 
  • A passion for craft, creativity, and collaboration.

Race & Ethnicity Definitions

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection. As a government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), we request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA. Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "disabled veteran" is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
