Amazon Studios is the television development and production arm of Amazon. We make and deliver Originals content for Prime customers. Over the past 5 years, we have debuted award-winning and ground-breaking programming like Transparent, The Man in the High Castle, The Grand Tour, and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. The WW Production & Operations team covers physical production, post production, and localization of series and movies globally.
We are looking for a Head of Visual Effects to oversee the VFX needs of our scripted episodic programming.

• Building a strong holistic strategy for VFX execution across a wide variety of titles with varying needs
• Cultivating and maintaining a network of vendor and talent relationships across the VFX industry
• Working closely with internal post-production and technology teams to improve VFX workflows
While engaging in these responsibilities, the Head of Visual Effects will be expected to be constantly evaluating, refining and improving internal processes to boost efficiency, quality of content, and operational precision. Exploring and embracing new technology should be a passion as well.
