The Role:
As our Digital Asset Coordinator, you will play an essential role in keeping Moonbug’s content pipeline running smoothly across our international linear and digital channel feeds. Working within our Operations & Scheduling team, you’ll be the bridge between our creative media assets and our global audiences—ensuring that every asset, audio file, and schedule meets our high broadcast standards.
This is a hands-on, high-ownership role where operational precision meets everyday media coordination. You will work cross-functionally with post-production, localisation, distribution, and programming teams to manage media flow, maintain clean metadata, and resolve scheduling gaps. If you thrive in a fast-paced environment where your attention to detail directly impacts broadcast-ready feeds viewed by millions of families worldwide, we’d love to hear from you.
Requirements
- Asset Tracking & Data Hygiene: Maintain, update, and audit our scheduling databases and media logs in Google Sheets, ensuring metadata, house numbers, asset status, and runtimes are accurate and consistent.
- Basic Timeline & Media Fixes: Open projects in Adobe Premiere Pro to check media files, make quick edits, and accurately sync localised dub tracks or updated audio stems to master video files when alignment issues arise.
- Schedule Integrity & QC: Perform thorough checks on channel broadcast schedules to ensure total runtimes align with technical parameters, identify and resolve schedule under-runs or over-runs, and backfill programming gaps with appropriate short-form filler or interstitial content.
- Deadline & Delivery Management: Manage incoming asset deliveries across multiple live and linear feeds, prioritising tasks effectively to hit firm broadcast transmission deadlines without external prompting.
- Cross-Functional Workflow Coordination: Collaborate closely with post-production editors, localisation coordinators, and operations leads to track missing elements, flag technical discrepancies early, and keep channel runs on schedule.
- Creative Stunt & Event Input: Partner with the programming team to contribute ideas for seasonal marathons, themed weekend takeovers, and special character stunts that keep our channel feeds fresh and engaging.
Requirements / Skills:
- Google Sheets Proficiency: Comfortable working with structured spreadsheets, tracking sheets, and databases—including the use of basic formulae, filters, and standard data-cleaning techniques.
- Working Knowledge of Premiere Pro: Practical familiarity with the Adobe Premiere Pro interface, particularly navigating the timeline, cutting clips, and syncing separate audio/dub tracks to video.
- Sharp Eye for Detail: A meticulous approach to spotting technical inconsistencies, runtime mismatches, and metadata errors before schedules go live.
- Dependable Time Management: Proven ability to manage your own workload against firm, broadcast-critical delivery cutoffs across multiple concurrent feeds.
- Team-Centric Communication: Clear, proactive communication style with the ability to flag bottlenecks early and collaborate effectively with both technical and creative teams.
- Bonus / Nice-to-Have: An enthusiasm for children’s entertainment and a natural curiosity for coming up with creative programming ideas or themed viewing stunts.
