Post-Production Manager

Job description

About the Role CatFace is a YouTube entertainment company behind the Aphmau brand and a family of channels with 24+ million subscribers and roughly 450 million monthly views. We produce multiple original narrative videos every week across Minecraft, Roblox, and other formats for kids and young adult audiences. We're hiring a Post Production Manager to own our post pipeline end to end — from raw footage to final delivery — across a high volume, fast-turnaround release schedule. You'll manage a team of editors and be the person who makes sure quality and deadlines aren't a tradeoff. What You'll Do Own the post-production pipeline from ingest through final delivery, keeping quality and deadlines on track across multiple concurrent projects. Manage and mentor a team of in-house and contract editors — assigning work, giving feedback, and developing their skills. Build and refine workflows, templates, and file/asset management systems that scale with a high-volume daily release cadence. Partner with producers and showrunners to protect creative intent through the edit without derailing schedules. Track project timelines, budgets, and freelancer/contractor resourcing; flag and resolve bottlenecks before they become late deliveries. Evaluate and introduce new tools or techniques (e.g. proxy workflows, automation) that improve speed, quality and organization.. Maintain delivery standards and specs for YouTube (including Shorts) and ensure final files meet platform requirements. Review videos giving constructive feedback. Communicate the status of the team to higher leadership effectively What You Bring 5+ years in post-production, with at least 2 years directly managing editors or a post team — high-volume, fast-turnaround environments (YouTube, social, unscripted, or similar) strongly preferred. Hands-on fluency with Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects; working knowledge of Pro Tools or comparable audio tools. A track record of building or improving post workflows — not just following existing ones. Comfortable owning schedules and budgets, and communicating tradeoffs clearly to producers and leadership. Strong eye for pacing, story, and quality bar appropriate for kids/YA content. Bachelor's degree in film, digital media, or related field, or equivalent professional experience. Nice to Have Familiarity with Minecraft or Roblox content creation — gameplay mechanics, community trends, or platform-specific production quirks. Experience with YouTube analytics, content policy, and platform best practices. Compensation & Logistics Salary range: $80,000 – $90,000 based on experience.
