About the Role

We’re looking for a highly motivated, technically sharp Avatar Studio Supervisor to join our Avatar Production team. This is a mid-function role sitting at the intersection of on-set production and post-production processing with the primary focus on helping our team with avatar processing, finishing, and releases.

As we scale our production operations we need someone who can dive into the production to post-production pipeline, bring organisational rigor, technical quality and grow fast in an AI-powered environment.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Support avatar processing, finishing, and release workflows as a core part of the post-production pipeline

• Use and develop proficiency with AI tools — including Claude, generative image tools, and Synthesia’s own platform — to enhance and accelerate production work

• Create and release avatars using generative AI models to clients

• Edit, color grade, and composite footage using DaVinci Resolve and Adobe Creative Suite

• Maintain exceptional organizational standards for data backup, file transfer, and asset security after shoots

• Collaborate with internal teams in London to support Marketing and Sales shoots

• Scope avatar needs with clients and guide them to the right solution

• Adapt quickly to constantly evolving technology and processes

Requirements

• 2+ years of experience in a post-production, visual effects, or a technical production role — titles like video editor, assistant editor, compositor, VFX artist, post-production coordinator, or AI video creator are all relevant backgrounds

• Broad technical toolkit across multiple disciplines

• Experience with DaVinci Resolve (editing and/or color grading)

• Experience with Photoshop for retouching and asset preparation

• Comfortable using AI tools such as Claude, ChatGPT, Midjourney, or DALL-E 3 — and genuinely curious about learning more

• Strong organizational skills and a systematic approach to technical workflows

• Clear, efficient communicator — comfortable working with clients and internal stakeholders

• Highly self-motivated, keen to learn, and fast to adapt

• Committed to technical excellence and best practice

Nice to Have

• On-set production experience — camera operation, lighting, or similar

• Audio skills, including Pro Tools and audio engineering

• Working knowledge of Adobe Creative Suite

• Experience with VFX or on-set VFX crew in client-facing environments

• Basic programming skills, particularly in python

Why Synthesia

This is a role where attitude and approach matter as much as your CV. Our Avatar Production team has deep collective experience and can bring the right person up to speed — if you show up hyper-driven, ready to learn, and genuinely excited by AI-powered video production, you’ll thrive here.

You’ll be working on technology that is shaping how enterprise communication gets made — and doing it with a team at the center of that shift.
