Job description

The Executive Producer will be a senior, highly proactive leader within Beyond Pictures’ production team, responsible for driving the successful development, production and delivery of films (and associated content) in the Tamil-film ecosystem. The role demands outstanding networking across talent, financiers, distributors, OTT platforms, music labels, and studios; strong negotiation and deal-closing ability; exceptional project-management skills; and the ability to ensure that projects reflect the brand promise of “Dream → Create → Transcend”.

Key Responsibilities :

a) Deal-making & Networking

  • Cultivate, maintain and expand high-level relationships with key stakeholders in the Tamil film industry — A-list / character actors, directors, composers, lyricists, producers, music labels, OTT acquisitions, trade associations and financiers.
  • Identify and secure strategic partnerships : co-productions, international sales, OTT licence deals, music-rights deals, sponsorship and branding tie-ups.
  • Lead negotiations on key contracts : talent deals, director / crew onboarding, music-rights agreements, theatrical / distribution contracts, OTT / TV rights, merchandising / licensing.
  • Present and pitch projects externally : prepare pitch decks, financial models, talent-line-ups, marketing / roll-out strategies to stakeholders and investors.
  • Monitor industry trends (Tamil Nadu, Pan-India, overseas Tamil diaspora) and proactively leverage emerging opportunities (e.g., new OTT windowing, international festival circuits, brand integrations).

b) Project Oversight & Production Leadership

  • Oversee film (or series) projects from early concept through development, pre-production, production, post-production, marketing, release and ancillary windows.
  • Work closely with Producer and Creative Producer to align on creative vision, budgets, schedules, and commercial objectives.
  • Establish and monitor production budgets, cost-control frameworks, revenue-share models, profit-participation terms.
  • Manage risk and contingency planning across all phases – schedule slippages, budget overruns, regulatory / licensing issues (e.g., censor board, film-unit permits, Studio / Studio Complexes).
  • Coordinate with production units (line producers, production managers, location scouts, art department, legal / compliance, finance, distribution) to ensure smooth execution.
  • Ensure timely delivery of materials (dailies, edits, locked picture, music masters, assets for marketing) and drive release readiness (certification, prints / digital, marketing collateral, premiere logistics).
  • c) Revenue & Commercial Management

  • Define revenue streams and monetisation plans : theatrical, digital / OTT, satellite, music, global rights (Singapore / Malaysia / US / UK, Middle-East), merchandising / licensing, ancillary (airlines / hotels).
  • Negotiate favourable terms for the company : ensure minimum guarantees, recoupment hurdles, backend participation, co-production agreements with clear IP / rights ownership.
  • Monitor film P&L, reporting to senior management : track actual vs budget, analyse performance, propose corrective actions.
  • Work with marketing / distribution teams to optimise release calendar (Tamil and non-Tamil markets), plan dubbed versions, regional strategies, festival premieres, awards campaigns.
  • d) Leadership & Collaboration

  • Build and lead a high-performance team : production executives, business affairs staff, legal counsel, liaison officers, marketing / distribution associates.
  • Act as a key liaison between the creative (directors, writers, composers) and business (finance, distribution, legal) sides — translating creative ambition into commercially viable frameworks.
  • Foster a culture of accountability, visibility and results-orientation : ensure tasks are tracked, timelines met, budgets controlled, and stakeholder expectations managed.
  • Serve as key brand ambassador for Beyond Pictures : represent the company at industry events, film markets (e.g., Cannes, AFM, IFFI), networking dinners, trade associations (e.g., TFPC, Film Producers’ Council).
  • e) Desirable Attributes

  • Experience in multi-language / OTT-first projects and international co-productions.
  • Prior relationships with global / Indian sales agents, festival circuits, and international financiers.
  • Exposure to branded-content, streaming-series, short-form digital content in addition to theatrical films.
  • Strong personal brand / visibility within the Tamil film circuit; credible to both creative and business stakeholders.
  • Familiar with emerging media (virtual production, web3, branded IP exploitation) — positioning the company for next-gen content.
  • f). KPIs & Success Measures

  • Number of strategic partnerships (OTT deals, music-rights, international co-productions) annually.
  • Percentage of projects delivered on time, on budget and as per quality standards.
  • Total revenue and profitability of films / series under supervision (theatrical, OTT, music, global rights).
  • Growth in company’s brand across Tamil industry (reflected by talent engagement, distributor strength, label tie-ups).
  • Reduction in cost overruns, schedule delays, and missed delivery milestones.
  • Employee / team satisfaction and retention in production / business affairs divisions.
  • Innovation uptake : how many new-format projects (OTT, digital, cross-border) successfully launched.
  • j). Working Conditions

  • Predominantly site-based in Chennai (Kotturpuram office) with frequent travel : locations in Tamil Nadu, other Indian states, and international markets (Singapore, Malaysia, Middle East, US / UK) as required.
  • Flexible working hours : film production is non-linear — may require night shoots, weekend work, last-minute deal-meetings.
  • Occasional presence at film festivals, markets and company promotional events.
  • h). Offer & Remuneration

  • Competitive base salary commensurate with experience, plus performance bonus tied to commercial success and KPIs.
  • Participation in backend / producer credits
  • Full access to company resources (office, production team support, travel budget, industry contacts).
  • Opportunity to shape the future direction of Beyond Pictures and become a senior executive in a growth-oriented film production house.
