SENIOR PRODUCER / SHOWRUNNER (Short-Form Food + Wellness Series)
Job Description
Glassman Media is seeking a senior-level producer to oversee a premium short-form cooking + wellness project rooted in mindful, plant-based cuisine and a calm, intentional approach to eating and daily ritual. The series is designed as a channel ecosystem (not a single show) made up of multiple recurring episode formats (4–6 minutes each), blending food, lifestyle, and wellness storytelling.
This role is ideal for a producer with strong creative instincts, an elevated doc sensibility, and the ability to oversee dynamic, cinematic food storytelling — beautiful, tactile cooking sequences, visually rich ingredient moments, and a premium look and feel — while still executing efficiently with lean crews and fast turnarounds.
RESPONSIBILITIES
- Oversee the project from development through production and delivery
- Help shape the creative direction and break the series into multiple short-form episode types, including:
- Guided “reset” episodes with real people looking to improve everyday habits
- Recipe-driven cooking episodes featuring simple, accessible techniques
- Mindfulness segments centered on breath, stillness, and conscious eating
- Ingredient + sourcing features (seasonal, local, nature-forward storytelling)
- Oversee the cinematographer on set to ensure the cooking, gardening/ingredient, and meditation segments are shot with a rich, elevated, premium look and feel
- Lead story development with the talent and families already cast and vetted, shaping emotional + practical arcs across episodes
- Bring exceptional skill guiding real people through a meaningful on-camera journey — capturing authenticity while keeping scenes focused, elevated, and story-driven
- Run production logistics, including schedules, crew planning, field coordination, and on-set leadership
- Manage post workflow with strong editorial notes to ensure pacing, tone, and consistency across formats
- Work in-office 5 days a week when not filming to support development, planning, and post-production collaboration
- Bring strong taste level and editorial instincts (premium doc/food sensibility a major plus)
