Location: London
Division: Merlin Magic Making – Creative
Reports to: Creative Studio Manager
Type: FTC (18 month Fixed Term Contract)

Bring Joy. Create Connections. Make Memories.

At Merlin Entertainments, our purpose is clear - to bring joy, create connections and make memories. As one of the world’s leading entertainment companies, we’re on a mission to become the global leader in branded entertainment destinations and the greatest place to work and play.

Behind every one of our iconic attractions lies the Merlin Magic Making (MMM) team - a diverse, talented and imaginative group who dream big and deliver even bigger. Now, we’re looking for an experienced Creative Producer on a fixed term contract to help us bring unforgettable, story-driven attractions to life across the Merlin estate.

About the Role

As Creative Producer, you’ll support the development and delivery of world-class attractions based on the Minecraft IP (one in the UK and one in the US) - turning ambitious creative ideas into immersive guest experiences that are bold, interactive and brilliantly executed.

You’ll work at the centre of cross-functional teams, connecting the creative vision with real-world delivery. From concept design to on-site art direction, you’ll ensure each project is brought to life on-brief, on-brand and on-budget.

This is a truly global role, working across multiple projects of varying size and scale - from exciting new concepts to high-profile refreshes, helping shape the future of Merlin’s attractions and storytelling.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Manage the creative process from concept to delivery across a range of attractions and experience types
• Collaborate with Creative, Ops, Marketing, Delivery and IP teams to ensure project alignment and success
• Translate creative concepts into physical experiences with outstanding attention to detail
• Oversee art direction, theming, AV integration and technical execution
• Lead communication between internal teams, partners, IPs and external agencies
• Support the definition of theming requirements, cost assessments and creative refinements
• Coordinate and attend site visits to ensure production feasibility and consistency
• Partner with Project Management to maintain schedules, timelines and key milestones
• Manage and guide external suppliers, vendors and contractors through to delivery
• Contribute to planning, innovation and knowledge-sharing across the MMM team

• A proven track record delivering guest-centric attractions, immersive environments or themed experiences
• A solid understanding of visitor attraction operations and production workflows
• Confidence working with AV and tech production and translating creative ideas into practical execution
• Ability to manage and influence a wide range of stakeholders, both internally and externally
• Hands-on experience working with IP partners and brand guardians
• Strong visual communication skills, with proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite and technical drawing interpretation
• A global mindset and willingness to travel internationally as needed

You’ll Also Need To Be…

• An exceptional communicator and collaborator with natural leadership instincts
• Meticulously organised with an eye for detail, but also able to see the bigger picture
• Financially savvy with experience managing budgets and supplier negotiations
• Passionate about trends, audiences and marketability - always curious and future-focused
• Resilient, positive and solutions-focused, especially when navigating complexity
• Aligned to Merlin’s values and culture: We Care, Own Your Craft, Drive & Discover, Go Together, Enjoy the Ride

Why Merlin?

This is your chance to work on globally recognised experiences that spark imagination, wonder and joy in millions of guests every year. You’ll be joining a collaborative team who care deeply about storytelling, creativity and innovation - and who never stop pushing what’s possible.
