Giant Spoon is seeking an Experiential Producer to own the day-to-day delivery of ambitious, complex activations. You are a natural project driver who bridges big-picture creative with relentless attention to detail. Organized, calm under pressure, and quick to solve problems in real time, you know how to keep teams aligned, vendors accountable, and live builds running smoothly from concept to strike.
This role works out of our LA office on Thursdays.
Responsibilities
- End-to-End Execution: Owning the hands-on delivery of experiential activations, live events, and stunts nationwide, driving schedules from initial pre-pro through on-site execution, strike and wrap.
- Budgeting & Value Engineering: Building, managing, and reconciling project budgets, finding practical ways to value-engineer ideas and keep every activation on or under budget.

Success requires confidence in both capacities, including the ability to explain complex production challenges clearly, set expectations, and balance production oversight with account responsibilities
