About the role

We’re looking for someone who is passionate about film festivals, film exhibition, and the wider role film plays in impacting our society. We’re looking for someone enthusiastic about working in a supportive start-up setting and excited to be learning everything that goes into grassroots festival and event organising.

The role includes:

• Developing marketing and social media content, strategy and schedules
• Writing blog posts, copywriting
• Audience development and engagement
• Festival programming and execution of Little Wing Film Festival 2021
• Film programming, talent sourcing
• Stakeholder and sponsorship development, relationship management

If there are specific areas you’re interested in, this is a flexible place where we want to make sure you are learning as much as you can, having your voice heard, and broadening your wider education and understanding of the social issues surrounding film, diversity, representation, and the power of film as a medium.
