Company Overview

Intuit is the global financial technology platform that powers prosperity for the people and communities we serve. With approximately 100 million customers worldwide using products such as TurboTax, Credit Karma, QuickBooks, and Mailchimp, we believe that everyone should have the opportunity to prosper. We never stop working to find new, innovative ways to make that possible.

Job Overview

Principal Studio Manager

To predict the future, we must create it—and at Intuit, that’s exactly what we’re doing.

The CEO Transformation Office is a newly formed, high-impact organization reporting directly to the CEO. Its mission is to mobilize the company around what matters most, shape the market, and accelerate Intuit’s transformation into the world’s leading global financial platform and system of intelligence.

This team sits at the intersection of strategy, storytelling, creativity, and execution. We bring together communications, creative, narrative development, and flagship events and experiences under one unified organization to ensure Intuit shows up with clarity, consistency, and conviction—internally and externally. From customers and prospects to media and investors, we shape how Intuit’s vision comes to life in the world.

At the heart of our work is a bold future: surrounding customers with a virtual team of AI agents and human intelligence that does the work for them and powers their prosperity. To deliver on that promise, we operate with a high say/do ratio, a bias for action, and an uncompromising focus on impact. We don’t just tell the story—we help drive the outcomes.

Joining the CEO Transformation Office means working on the company’s most visible, mission-critical initiatives, partnering with senior leaders across the business, and helping define how Intuit’s strategy is experienced by the world. This is a team for builders, storytellers, and operators who want to shape the future—not react to it.

Role Summary

The Principal Studio Manager is a high-visibility leader responsible for the creative vision, technical delivery, and operational success of our corporate media production studio. This role requires a rare blend of executive-level presence and hands-on technical mastery.

You will serve as the primary production partner for senior leadership, ensuring their message is delivered with world-class visual sophistication and flawless technical execution. Beyond the control room, you are the strategic bridge, aligning technical engineering, communications, and creative storytelling into one seamless production engine.

You will be responsible for transforming our studio into a "center of excellence" that produces broadcast-quality content for 18,000+ employees, TV appearances and prerecorded content.


Responsibilities

How you’ll lead:

Executive Presence

  • Act as the lead production consultant for senior leaders. You must provide a seamless, repeatable experience for on-camera leaders while driving creative direction and technical success during high-stakes broadcasts.

  • Lead the room during executive sessions. You have the confidence and professional "shorthand" to direct senior leaders on camera, ensuring they look, sound, and feel their best.

  • Maintain a calm, authoritative presence in high-pressure environments.

Strategic Alignment

  • Cross-functional orchestration between:

    • Technical Engineering: Ensuring the infrastructure and delivery is flawless.

    • Communications: Ensuring the narrative intent is protected.

    • Creative: Ensuring the visual output is premium and consistent.

  • Decision making: Own the intake and prioritization. 

Creative & Technical Excellence


  • Creative Vision: Own the studio’s visual identity. You are responsible for the lighting plots, set design, and camera blocking that define our brand’s visual authority.

  • Technical Direction: You must be capable of technical directing live broadcasts, setting professional lighting, and managing multi-cam production.

    Performance Indicators


    • Executive confidence: High satisfaction ratings and trust from senior leadership offices regarding studio preparedness and creative output.

    • Operational unity: Successful elimination of silos between the engineering and creative teams, evidenced by streamlined workflows and reduced friction in the booking-to-delivery lifecycle.

    • Visual elevation: A measurable step-up in the quality of studio lighting, set design, and overall broadcast aesthetics within the first 6 months.


Qualifications

What You’ll Bring

  • Executive presence: Proven experience working directly with C-Suite leaders. You know how to read a room, provide concise direction, and maintain professionalism under fire.

  • Deep broadcast experience: 10+ years in professional studio environments (Live News, Sports, or Tier-1 Corporate). You have a deep portfolio of live-to-air production.

  • Technical artistry: You aren't just a manager; you are a practitioner. You have advanced skills in lighting, camera operation, and live switching.

  • Operational sophistication: Experience building highly effective and efficient operating models. You understand how to scale production via SOPs, ticketing systems, and standardized crew workflows.

  • Diplomatic fluency: The ability to explain complex technical constraints to a non-technical comms lead, and creative vision to a literal-minded engineer.
