About the Role

The Director of Multimedia is responsible for the global technology, production, broadcast, engineering, and operational capabilities that power the company's multimedia experiences and digital media infrastructure. This leader oversees the multimedia technology ecosystem supporting corporate offices, executive environments, studios, event spaces, broadcast environments, digital signage, and enterprise events — combining live production, broadcast/streaming distribution, post-production/editing, engineering, digital media infrastructure, and operations into a single, unified capability.

This role does not own creative strategy. Creative, Brand, and Communications teams define the vision, message, and audience experience; the Director of Multimedia provides the technology, technical production expertise, infrastructure, and operational discipline required to bring that vision to life reliably, at scale, and globally.

What You'll Do

The Director will lead the Multimedia Production, Engineering & Operations function and build a scalable operating model to support enterprise requirements globally. Core responsibilities span four interlocking domains:

Production & Technical Execution

Own the technical execution of high-profile productions: executive town halls, leadership meetings, conferences/summits, brand events, broadcasts, and hybrid experiences

Translate creative concepts and business requirements into technical production plans, including run-of-show development, show/shot calling, technical direction, crew planning, and rehearsals

Direct audio/video engineering, multi-camera production, switching, graphics/playback integration, lighting, LED/projection, and remote/hybrid production

Establish a disciplined production methodology: rundowns, cue structures, escalation procedures, redundancy, and contingency planning for every major production

Broadcast, Streaming & Post-Production

Own broadcast distribution architecture and standards, including encoding, signal routing, and delivery to internal and external audiences

Own enterprise streaming platform strategy — live streaming, on-demand distribution, CDN performance, and access/rights controls across global audiences

Own the post-production/editing pipeline for final multimedia deliverables: ingest, editing, versioning, approvals, graphics/motion graphics finishing, and output formatting for multiple platforms (web, signage, social, broadcast)

Establish standards for archival and re-use of finished content, ensuring edited assets are properly stored, tagged, and retrievable

Engineering & Infrastructure

Own the engineering strategy and technical standards for production studios, control rooms, executive presentation spaces, auditoriums, conference/collaboration environments, digital signage, video walls, streaming platforms, editing/post-production systems, and production networks

Establish reference architectures for audio, video, broadcast, streaming, AV-over-IP, networking, and control systems, built for reliability, scalability, interoperability, security, and lifecycle management

Partner with IT, cybersecurity, infrastructure, and facilities teams to align multimedia technology with broader enterprise technology standards

Operations & Digital Asset Maintenance

Own day-to-day operational health of the multimedia ecosystem, shifting the organization from reactive support to proactive engineering and preventive maintenance

Establish global standards for monitoring, incident/problem management, root-cause analysis, firmware/configuration management, spare equipment strategy, backup/disaster recovery, asset inventory, and technology refresh cycles

Oversee technical operation of digital and multimedia assets — partnering with content owners so raw and edited content is reliably distributed, displayed, stored, retrieved, and maintained across enterprise platforms

Own operating and capital budget planning for multimedia technology, studios, broadcast infrastructure, streaming platforms, editing systems, and event production technology; Identify cost avoidance opportunities: vendor consolidation, standardization, utilization improvement

Establish and report on a performance framework: platform availability, production success rate, MTTR, preventive maintenance completion, equipment failure rates, cost per production, editing/post-production turnaround time, vendor SLA performance, stakeholder satisfaction

Evaluate emerging technologies (IP-based production, cloud/remote production, cloud editing workflows, AI-assisted editing, virtual production) for enterprise applicability

Hands-on or leadership-level experience with post-production/editing workflows: NLE platforms, media management, motion graphics finishing, and multi-format output

Experience establishing preventive maintenance, monitoring, incident management, and technology lifecycle programs

Experience managing digital asset infrastructure: media storage, backup/disaster recovery, retrieval systems, archival standards for finished content

Experience managing vendor ecosystems, including integrators, production companies, streaming/CDN providers, rental partners, and freelance/stage labor

Demonstrated budget management experience across operating and capital technology spend

Strong track recordand experience leading and building high performing global teams ensuring successful delivery ofindividual and team goalswith employee growth
