Operations & Execution Associate

About Jolt

Jolt is an innovative platform committed to showcasing new, significant films often missed by mainstream distribution networks. Our goal is to forge connections between filmmakers and worldwide audiences, ensuring creators maintain ownership and future monetization rights. With a focus on select films available each month and a revenue-sharing model, Jolt operates ad-free, emphasizing the value of content over quantity.

What We're Looking For

We’re looking for an Operations & Execution Associate — a highly organized, proactive operator who thrives at the intersection of strategy and execution and who can turn complex, moving parts into clean systems, timelines, and results. This is a critical role supporting the Chief of Staff and leadership team across business operations, external screenings, and filmmaker projects.

Responsibilities

The Operations & Execution Lead is responsible for making things happen across Jolt. You will:

Turn strategy into execution
Own cross-functional timelines and workflows
Keep projects, screenings, and internal initiatives on track
Build and support the operational backbone that allows the team to move fast without breaking things

You’ll work across film teams, marketing, partnerships, finance, and leadership — and will be trusted with high-impact, high-visibility initiatives.

Execution & Project Leadership

Own and drive execution across multiple parallel initiatives (film launches, screenings, partnerships, internal ops projects)
Translate high-level goals into concrete plans, timelines, and deliverables
Keep projects moving, unblock bottlenecks, and ensure nothing falls through the cracks
Run cross-functional timelines and hold owners accountable

External Screenings & Film Operations

Oversee the operational execution of community, partner, and theatrical screenings
Manage screening workflows, approvals, assets, logistics, and post-event reporting
Coordinate across filmmakers, venues, partners, and internal teams
Build scalable systems for tracking inbound requests, active screenings, and outcomes

Business Operations & Systems

Support core business operations including internal processes, documentation, and workflows
Improve and maintain systems across Asana, Google Drive, Slack, and help identify tools that streamlines operations
Create workflow templates, checklists, and playbooks to increase clarity and efficiency
Identify operational friction and better ways of working

Chief of Staff & Leadership Support

Act as a right hand to the Chief of Staff and/or CEO on priority initiatives
Drive special projects, internal rollouts, and cross-team initiatives
Prepare materials, track follow-ups, and ensure leadership priorities turn into action
Bring structure and momentum to fast-moving, ambiguous work

Visibility, Tracking & Accountability

Maintain clear visibility into what’s happening across the organization
Contribute to simple dashboards, trackers, and reporting systems that deliver reliable information on-demand
Ensure leadership always knows: what’s on track, what’s at risk, and what needs attention

Who You Are

A natural operator who loves building order out of chaos
Extremely organized, structured, and detail-oriented
Calm under pressure, great at juggling multiple workstreams and know when to ask for help
Proactive, not reactive — you spot problems before they become fires and anticipate next steps
Comfortable working across creative, strategic, and operational teams and respect the workflows involved
You don’t need perfect instructions to kick off new projects — you build the plan and ask for feedback
You’re discreet and trustworthy with sensitive internal and external information

What You Bring

3+ years experience in operations, project management, production, consulting, or startups
Strong track record of owning complex, cross-functional execution
Excellent written and verbal communication
Deep comfort with tools like Asana, Google Drive, Slack, and can use AI as a tool and not a crutch
Experience in media, film, tech, or mission-driven orgs is a big plus

You care about stories, impact, and building things that matter. It's not a job. It's a mission.

This is listed initially as an internship. There may be continued full-time opportunities at the end of this semester.

Please share a resume and cover letter explaining your interest in this role and why you're a great match. Do NOT reach out to Jolt's customer service or general inquires team for updates on applications. All other inquires may be sent to jobs@joltspace.com. Thanks!
