Hi there, we’re Article. 👋 Since 2013, we have been redefining the furniture industry one sofa at a time, it’s not easy — it requires solving challenging, meaningful problems.

Why We Need You:
Why We Need You:
As our catalog continues to grow, Creative Production Management is expanding its scope from supporting one creative team to servicing all four multidisciplinary teams across Article’s Creative function. We need a champion of operational flow who can bring grounded day-to-day stability to our asset intake, capacity tracking, and cross-functional sequencing. This fits into our larger need to scale high-velocity eCommerce production smoothly, eliminate bottlenecks, and ensure every product launch lands on time and within budget so our customers get a remarkably seamless shopping experience.
In your first couple months, you’ll focus on business-as-usual production coordination, getting to know our teams, workflows, and day-to-day priorities. As you settle in, you’ll roll up your sleeves to help stabilize our intake pipelines, build trusted relationships across our creative leads, and bring greater structure and visibility to our production data in Google Sheets. Over time, you’ll become a meaningful contributor to improving our operational blueprints, streamlining workflows, and identifying opportunities for automation to help Creative Production scale alongside our growing portfolio.

About the team:
We are a team of 5 reporting into our Manager, Virtual Production. You won't be managing direct reports—you’ll be our go-to project management and operational systems wizard working alongside fellow production contributors. Your "customers" are both internal and cross-functional partners: you’ll collaborate daily with internal clients across Marketing, Sales, Product Development (TPD & Sourcing), Category Management, and PMO, while supporting the creative makers inside Photography, CGI, Graphic Design, Product Copy, and Creative Direction.
