• Organize footage, project files, backups and final deliverables efficiently
• Troubleshoot production and post-production challenges with a practical, solution-oriented approach

• Relevant degree in Film Production, Cinematography, Media or a related field is preferred

Who We Are Looking For

You should be:

• Creatively ambitious and visually aware
• Dependable, organized and solution-oriented
• Comfortable taking ownership of productions
• Passionate about music, cinema and visual storytelling
• Adaptable across cinematic films, live content and digital formats
• Open to direction while confident enough to contribute original ideas
