Creative Producer / Operations Manager

CREATIVE PRODUCER / OPERATIONS MANAGER

Remilia Corporation — Orange County, CA

Remilia is a multidisciplinary art/design studio and lifestyle brand operating in the domains of fashion, music, digital art and new media. We produce culture events with emerging artists globally and maintain operations across California, Korea, Shanghai, and Tokyo.

We're seeking an experienced creative producer (AKA "creative operations manager", "studio manager") to drive operational excellence across our projects and international locations. You'll track deliverables, coordinate teams, manage partner relationships, and ensure flawless execution of our work in fashion, art, new media, and music.

What you'll do:

Own project tracking and delivery across all studio initiatives — you'll maintain visibility on every priority deliverable the creative director assigns, follow up with teams, identify bottlenecks, and escalate issues before they become problems. You'll coordinate operations across US and East Asia, managing relationships with artists, cultural partners, production vendors, and collaborators in multiple time zones.

When the CD can't be present, you'll represent the studio in operational meetings, cultural events, and partner discussions — making decisions, providing updates, and maintaining momentum. You'll manage international coordination for our work in Seoul, Shanghai, and Tokyo, ensuring projects meet the professional standards and cultural protocols these markets require.

You'll also build and refine internal systems — workflows, tracking tools, team communication — to scale our operations as we grow.

You're the right person if you:

Have 5+ years in creative operations, project management, or digital-first production — ideally at design studios, fashion brands, cultural institutions, or boutique agencies. You've managed complex, multi-stakeholder projects and know how to keep creative work on track without stifling it.

You're fluent in professional protocols across Western and East Asian business cultures. Korean, Mandarin, or Japanese language skills are strongly preferred given our active operations in these markets. You understand the higher degree of formality and attention to detail these contexts require.

You're strategic but execution-obsessed. You can see the big picture while ensuring nothing slips through the cracks. You're comfortable with ambiguity and thrive in fast-moving environments where priorities shift. You have the presence and confidence to represent leadership in meetings and the EQ to navigate creative personalities and high-stakes partnerships.

You're someone people respect and respond to — you can be firm when deadlines matter and diplomatic when relationships need care.

This role is NOT for you if:

You need clear 9-5 boundaries and predictable workloads. You prefer executing tasks over owning outcomes. You're uncomfortable with international coordination or working across cultures. You want a purely administrative role without strategic responsibility.

What we offer:

Competitive compensation with comprehensive benefits including health insurance, generous PTO, lifestyle stipends, and Equinox membership. Direct partnership with the CEO and creative team in a small, but fast-growing startup. Access to our global network of emerging artists and cultural events. Autonomy to build systems and own your operational domain.

Location: Full-time, on-site at our Irvine, CA headquarters. Occasional evenings/weekends for events. International travel 2-4 times per year.
