Full-time · Amsterdam

Sizzer's core objective is to solidify itself as a global leader in creative music agency services. To continue advancing in this direction, we are actively seeking an experienced Senior Music Producer who aspires to produce the music that will further elevate our industry standing.

We firmly believe that exceptional advertising has the potential to engage, inspire, and profoundly touch people. Harnessing the power of music, we empower our creative partners to accomplish precisely that. Our ultimate goal is to encourage a transformation in people's perception of commercial creativity and have them "unhate advertising."

With your great taste and eye for musical quality, you’ll help Sizzer further establish its position as the most creative and influential music agency.

Do you possess the capability to make a transformative impact on the music landscape of tomorrow? Can you effectively bridge the gap between Music culture and the world of advertising?

Then please read on.

About the job

  • You’ll independently oversee the creative process of the (multiple and simultaneous) music productions that are assigned to you. From briefing to final edit and everything in between,: you’ll manage it all
  • You’ll talk to clients, directors, editors and other stakeholders in the creative process. You’re able to both listen attentively as well as lead the conversation, and your authority and charisma makes a positive impact
  • With the musical vocabulary you possess, you’ll effectively decipher client briefings and translate them into clear musical briefings for our composers
  • You’ll closely keep track of the progress of the productions that are assigned to you and always make sure that all - although at times impossibly tight - deadlines are met. You are responsible for fine tuning the composer's works throughout the entire process of creation, either by giving clear instructions or adding your own musical revisions
  • As a senior in the team, you’re able to give creative direction and inspiration to other team members, functioning both as a coach and mentor when needed, and ensuring the productions we produce always meet the highest standards
  •  You'll make sure that all created music is creatively edited underneath any given film, doing so with optimal impact and precision

  • You are responsible for continuously scouting for new talent to feed and boost our ever-growing talent roster

  • You have broad technical knowledge of music production and are highly proficient in at least 1 DAW. You have an extensive understanding of audio and sequencer software, the ability to create coherent and authentic sounds and the proper knowledge of a variety of different recording techniques

  • Since a great deal of the job will include handling tight deadlines, working with eccentric composers and deciphering client feedback, you possess nerves of steel and the ability to keep a clear overview

  • You have a very good understanding of music and musical language in general and are able to switch between and reproduce genres effortlessly and authentically. You understand what instruments are typically used in songs, you know common chord progressions, have a schooled ear for melodies, and the ability to quickly dive into certain genres / cultures to understand their musical characteristics

  • You possess a large (international) network of vocalists, music producers, composers and recording musicians

  • As a music producer you are a musician at heart. You know your way around an instrument, and have maybe even jammed in a band or two

  • You are social and able to bring good energy to an(y) environment. You are a team player at heart and care to support the people in your team

  • Besides your love for music, you should have a keen interest in film and advertising as well

So, are you ready to become the best in your field and an industry leader in the advertising industry? With the power of the Sizzer team, we pursue to make this happen.
