The Founder

Mimosa Production Services is a company built in the image of its Founder and Executive Producer, Edward Jenkins.

Welsh by birth, but a passionate francophile by conviction, Ed moved to France as an 19-year-old in 2005, in order to pursue his dream of becoming an internationally-renowned Michelin star chef. When that dream fizzled out, Ed furthered his education, before finding his true calling in the production business, cutting his teeth over eight years in Paris, initially in the fields of multimedia production and film distribution, then as a Fixer. Upon settling in Nice, in 2013, Ed, by now a seasoned Freelance Fixer-Producer, painstakingly developed his extensive knowledge of the South of France and Monaco, before launching Mimosa Production, in 2021.

Now a fully-adopted and acclimatised mec du sud, Ed bundles together his irreproachable professional standards, his international perspective (he speaks English, Welsh, French, Russian and Italian), his passion for film and production, his extensive circle of contacts and his expert knowledge of the most stunning locations – into a package that delivers success for your project.
