本ポジションは、Media Sales向け制作のガバナンスおよび品質責任を担い、社内制作チーム、外部プロダクション、代理店を横断してMedia Sales Creative × Business × Production を接続するハブとなる重要な役割です。
【The Role】
As DAZN Japan continues to expand its advertising and sponsorship business, we are seeking a senior-level producer to lead and oversee all Ad & Sponsor Content.
This role goes far beyond production management or being a point of contact. You will be involved from the commercial discussion stage with sponsors and agencies, and will be required to instantly assess, translate, and align:
- Rights and compliance
- Production resources
- Talent and IP
- DAZN brand and quality standards
to deliver creative solutions that can only exist on DAZN, quickly and seamlessly.
Moving beyond BAU-style in-program advertising (e.g. L-Shape bars or simple on-screen exposure), this role leads with a fandom-driven creative philosophy, with the aim of:
- Maximizing sponsor value
- Differentiating DAZN Advertising
- Building scalable, repeatable models for advertising creativity
【Not This Role】
・ Production coordination–only role
・A position focused solely on creative expression without business accountability
・Agency-style “work-for-hire” creative execution
・In-house editorial or program production work
*This role is 100% dedicated to Media Sales-driven content.

- DAZN Advertisingの差別化
- 再現性のある広告クリエイティブの型化
をリードしていただきます。
