Producer, The Barn Sweden, 12-month parental leave cover - Stockholm

Are you an experienced Producer with a background in advertising, film and content production? Do you enjoy turning creative ideas into reality, finding smart production solutions and working across different types of projects?

Join The Barn, Arla's in-house creative agency, as a Producer for a 12-month parental leave cover.

How you will make an impact

As Producer, you'll play a central role in bringing creative ideas to life for brands such as Arla Ko, Yoggi, Yalla, Kvibille and Svenskt Smör.

You'll work across different types of productions, from larger integrated campaigns to smaller, faster and more agile content projects. Some productions will involve external production companies, while others will be developed and executed with our internal team, freelancers or content creators.

We're looking for someone who understands traditional production but is equally comfortable exploring smarter, leaner and more flexible ways of working.

You'll collaborate closely with creatives, account teams and stakeholders, contributing with production thinking from an early stage and taking ownership from planning through final delivery.

Key responsibilities

• Lead productions from start to finish, covering pre-production, planning, shoots, post-production and final delivery.
• Manage a variety of projects, including film, photography, social-first content, food content, adaptations and other digital formats.
• Translate creative concepts into realistic production plans, balancing creative ambition, quality, timelines and budgets.
• Identify the right production approach for each project, whether working with external production partners, freelancers, creators or internal resources.
• Contribute early in the creative process, bringing production expertise, feasibility assessments and practical solutions.
• Take ownership on set, leading production teams, managing decisions and ensuring efficient execution.
• Manage production budgets, estimates, schedules, suppliers, negotiations and contracts.
• Coordinate stakeholder communication, approvals and expectations throughout the production process.
• Ensure all final assets are delivered correctly, according to specifications, deadlines and agreed scope.
• Look for opportunities to improve efficiency and simplify production workflows without compromising the creative idea.

You will report to the Production Team Lead.

What will make you successful

You're an experienced Producer who combines strong production knowledge with creative curiosity, commercial awareness and a practical, solution-oriented mindset.

You enjoy working with creative people, know how to bring structure to complex projects and feel comfortable taking responsibility and making decisions.

You don't believe every project needs the same production setup. You can adapt your approach depending on the idea, ambition, budget and timeline.

We believe you bring

• At least 5 years of experience as a Producer in an advertising agency, production company or similar creative environment.
• Solid experience managing commercial productions, particularly film, photography and digital/social content.
• A good understanding of different production approaches, from traditional campaigns to lean, fast-paced and social-first productions.
• Strong project management skills, including budgeting, resource planning, scheduling, cost control and delivery.
• Confidence leading creative teams, production crews, freelancers and external suppliers.
• Strong creative judgement and the ability to find practical solutions that protect the creative ambition.
• A proactive, hands-on attitude, with the ability to work independently and take ownership.
• Good communication and stakeholder management skills, including the confidence to challenge constructively and set clear expectations.
• An understanding of social platforms, digital formats and how content needs differ across channels.
• Curiosity about emerging production tools, technologies, AI and new ways of creating content.
• Fluency in Swedish and proficiency in English, both written and spoken.

Experience with Workbook or similar resource and project management tools is an advantage.
