【Why Join DAZN?】Joining DAZN means becoming part of a global team that is transforming the way fans experience live sports. Across mobile, web, and living room devices, we build and operate a platform that delivers premium sports content to millions of users worldwide.

DAZNの仲間に加わることは、ライブスポーツの視聴体験を変革しているグローバルチームの一員になることを意味します。モバイル、Web、TV向けデバイスを問わず、私たちは何百万人ものユーザーに届けるプラットフォームを構築しています。
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
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
・ 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 Japanでは、広告・スポンサー案件の拡大に伴い、Ad & Sponsor Content全体を統括するシニアレベルのプロデューサーを募集しています。本ポジションは、単なる制作進行や窓口対応ではなく、 スポンサー/代理店との商談段階から関与し、
- 権利
- 制作リソース
- 演者・IP
- DAZNブランド/クオリティ
- スポンサー価値の最大化
- DAZN Advertisingの差別化
- 再現性のある広告クリエイティブの型化
【本ポジションではないこと】
・制作進行管理のみの役割
・表現クオリティだけを追う仕事
・Agencyの下請け的クリエイティブ制作
・社内コンテンツ番組制作の業務
*本ポジションは100%、Media Sales向けになります。
