Production Manager

Local Project

To inform, educate and inspire, exploring current questions, ideas and conversations through compelling and informed content.

The Local Project celebrates extraordinary design across a range of platforms, championing the best from industry leaders and emerging designers alike. After launching in 2016 with a focus on Australian architecture and design, they broadened their scope in 2019 to include New Zealand, and again in 2023 to encompass North America. Their print periodical features three titles – The Local Project, The Commercial Project and The Local Marketplace – and they recently launched their first hardcover book, 10, compiling highlights from their first 10 issues in print.

The Production Manager will have overall accountability for our production output. Forming part of the leadership group, this fast paced and varied role will cover strategy, people management, delivery and process improvement.
