Digital Audience Growth & Marketing Associate

Digital Audience Growth & Marketing Associate (Part Time)

We're seeking a Digital Audience Growth & Marketing Associate who understands how audiences discover, engage with, and share content across today's digital landscape.

This is a hands-on, execution-focused role for someone who combines creative marketing instincts with analytical thinking. You'll help build and optimize campaigns that bring independent films to the right audiences through paid media, organic social, strategic partnerships, influencer engagement, and lifecycle marketing.

You're curious about what makes content travel, how algorithms influence discovery, and how audience behavior can inform smarter marketing decisions. You're comfortable working with performance data, testing new approaches, and adjusting tactics based on results.

Most importantly, you're excited about helping independent films find their audiences and become part of larger cultural conversations.

This part-time role sits at the intersection of film operations, digital distribution, and the backend platform team. The ideal candidate understands media files, technical specifications and basic coding, communicates clearly with internal teams, and can reliably manage multiple titles and delivery deadlines to internal and external platforms.
