AI & Creative Project Manager
HYPERMUSE Studio is an independent AI Image & Video studio, founded and backed by the founder of Dulcedo Group. We exist to extend what our talent, creators, and brand partners can achieve when human vision is amplified by the best emerging technology.
Born from Dulcedo's leadership at every major industry shift, HYPERMUSE is designed to deliver high-end, campaign-ready content with the speed and flexibility of AI - without compromising the values that define our business: consent, fairness, creative integrity, and trust. We don't treat AI as a shortcut. We treat it as a new production advantage that is carefully directed, ethically structured, and built to protect the long-term value of the talent economy.
Our studio exists to solve real commercial problems for brands - unlocking new formats, new creative worlds, and new efficiencies - while ensuring that digital likeness and AI-generated assets are managed with rigorous standards. Every deliverable is shaped by experienced creative leaders and producers, because at HYPERMUSE, technology doesn't replace taste. It scales it.
The Opportunity: We’re looking for a Creative Project Manager - the operational engine and management pillar that keeps the studio moving from first client call to final delivery. In this role, you will seamlessly balance the execution of our internal initiatives like proprietary IP and avatar development—with high-touch client management and proactive studio revenue growth through pitching and prospecting .
Bringing presence, taste, and fire, you will run fast-paced productions across AI image and video while keeping a sharp eye on timeline logistics, production effort, and project profitability. We need a PM who can confidently guide stakeholders through an evolving technological landscape, protect creative intent in early conversations, and turn ambiguity into clear momentum without slowing the studio down.
Your Role
- New business driver: lead prospection for the studio — identify and pursue new client opportunities, build relationships, and convert early conversations into scoped projects.
- Studio IP manager: manage the studio's internal projects and intellectual property with the same structure and rigour as client work.
- End-to-end delivery owner: own AI image/video projects — from kickoff to final delivery — across multiple clients and timelines.
- Client communication lead: run production check-ins, manage expectations, drive next steps, and ensure feedback is consolidated into clear, actionable direction.
- Early-stage alignment partner: support the brief intake and concept alignment phase by asking smart questions, challenging assumptions, and helping refine the scope into an executable plan.
- Production framework builder: set timelines, milestones, review cycles, approval gates, versioning, and a "definition of done" for every deliverable.
- Momentum driver: run working sessions with Creative + Production to keep output flowing, remove blockers, and maintain momentum during rapid iteration.
- Creative intent guardian: protect creative intent while keeping the machine tight — the team produces at speed without compromising taste, brand fit, or quality standards.
- Trust and compliance steward: ensure clarity on what's being produced, what's being delivered, and what the client is approving — avoiding any "black box" feeling, without being heavy.
- Continuous improver: identify bottlenecks, refine workflows, and implement better processes as volume grows
Your Profile
- At least 5 years of project management experience in a creative agency, VFX studio, cinema production environment, 3D animation studio, or social-first marketing agency.
- Proven experience managing multiple projects in parallel with high client touch, tight timelines, and lots of stakeholders.
- Strong production instincts: you understand how creative work is made (including traditional photoshoots and image construction) and how to keep it moving without draining the team.
- Excellent client presence and a proactive commercial mindset: confident leading calls, handling pressure, building strong relationships, and driving revenue through client pitching and prospection.
- Highly organized and systems-minded: you bring structure that enables creativity—not bureaucracy.
- Comfortable in fast-moving environments where tools and workflows evolve quickly (you adapt fast and stay calm).
- Enough creative sensitivity to contribute: you can spot risks, ask the right questions, and help shape direction—but you don’t need to be the one writing the entire creative strategy.
- Experience building scalable workflows in a growing studio or start-up environment.
- Big Plus: Experience working with AI-enabled or rapid-iteration creative pipelines (or a strong curiosity and real exposure to AI tools/work).
- Familiarity with usage rights / licensing sensitivities in content production (helpful in AI contexts).
