Production manager (film/TV)

Production managers handle the logistics and budgets of film and TV productions. The work involves planning and managing schedules, budgets, crews, and resources, coordinating logistics, solving operational problems, and keeping productions running on time and on budget.

They work for production companies and studios. The role suits organised, calm, resourceful people who can manage the enormous logistics of production, control budgets and schedules, coordinate large crews, solve the endless problems shoots throw up, and combine operational command with the steadiness to keep a complex, expensive production moving.
