Lead, Production Support Services

Description

About the Company


Since 1915, Deluxe has served as the trusted partner to the global entertainment industry: from the major Hollywood studios to new global content platforms, as well as leading local content producers, broadcasters and distributors around the world.


Our comprehensive offering of creative post-production and digital delivery solutions enables our clients to enhance and maximise the value of their content globally.

We provide an end-to-end suite of services unrivalled in breadth, scale and global scope: high-end audio and visual post production for television and film; content management; content marketing; content localisation; and IP-based global distribution.

Deluxe is a Los Angeles-based company with operations in over 25 countries around the world.

Whilst the International business of Deluxe comprises less than half of the revenue of the business today, we expect this share to increase substantially as we lead the international growth agenda for the business.

Deluxe is a best-in-class employer, with over 8,000 of the most respected technologists and artists in the industry.

We foster a culture of ingenuity, passion and collaboration to support our clients and our people, in all their endeavours.

Our company values follow.

About the team

Localisation

The global demand for entertainment content today is unprecedented. Deluxe provides worldwide audiences with the latest features and original content of all kinds.

We are one of Europe's leading localisation facilities.

We provide clients and therefore end users with a worldwide service offering in over 50 languages for theatrical, home entertainment, broadcast TV and OTT.


With traditional cinema and home entertainment facing further disruption from online platforms and evolving user expectations, Deluxe is looking to attract bright and talented people who are unfazed by the shifting media world.
