WIP Producer (Social focus)

A WIP Producer (Social focus) is responsible for producing social-first, digital and action-based campaigns. These projects can take many shapes including influencer/creator partnerships, content licensing, social content, digital experiences, brand actions, and experiential activations. A Producer is evaluated on the (a) creative quality, (b) schedule and budget adherence of all assigned projects, and (c) ability to build confidence with our team, our clients and production partners. A WIP Producer focused on social has day to day client exposure.

About Us We believe every brand, and person, should be a work in progress.

It’s why the founding partners opened the agency in 2016, and why WorkInProgress helps brands boldly take action, innovate, and create to prove why they exist. Then we use those actions to create the most memorable advertising.

As an independent agency, we strive to prove that an agency can care as much about a client’s business as they do. And that advertising can play a fundamental role in building and growing a company.

We’re always looking for smart, creative, and passionate people that care more about changing a company than winning awards.

Inventors more than ad people. Problem solvers more than portfolio puffery pushers. No assholes. No egos. No hiding because you can’t do the job. No selfishness. No disrespecting people or their time. Insanely talented, yet incredibly humble. In other words, one in a million. Lucky for us, we want to stay small and independent.

Our office is located in Boulder, CO, and we require employees to work from the office Tuesdays and Thursdays.
