• Support onboarding/offboarding operations and approve timesheets for reporting staff.
• Review and verify invoices and operational expenses to ensure accuracy and adherence to budget guidelines.

• Act as the primary point of contact for visitors and production guests , providing clear communication about logistics such as parking, access, and building activities.
• Anticipate guest and team needs to deliver a seamless, welcoming experience from arrival to departure.
• Maintain overall readiness of the office and studio — ensuring spaces are functional, organized, and visually polished for all events and activities.
Qualifications
• 5+ years of experience in studio management, production coordination, or operations (creative industry experience strongly preferred).
• Exceptional organizational, multitasking, and problem-solving skills with a strong ability to anticipate needs.
• Clear and confident communicator with excellent follow-through and attention to detail.
