Role Description
We are seeking an entrepreneurial, mission-driven President (Co-Founder Track) to join our founding leadership team and shape the next phase of the company’s growth. This is a hands-on, startup leadership role for someone who wants to help build a studio—not simply work at one.
You will partner directly with the Founder as a core decision-maker, guiding business strategy, operations, partnerships, and studio development. This role is ideal for someone excited by the challenge of building systems from the ground up, scaling new initiatives, and helping define what a purpose-driven entertainment company can look like.

Oversee day-to-day management with a focus on sustainable, scalable systems

Forge partnerships with distributors, arts institutions, brands, festivals, and creative organizations

Help build revenue models, studio infrastructure, and long-term business plans
-
Collaborate closely with creative leadership on project development and portfolio direction
-
Represent Jenevesque Media publicly across industry events, film circles, and cultural platforms

Bachelor’s degree preferred (current graduating seniors or candidates with strong experience will also be considered)
-
Preferred fields of study: Film Production, Business of Film, Business Administration, Marketing / Communications, Media Management, or other Fine / Dramatic Arts.
Additional experience, coursework, internships, or community leadership in media, the arts, cultural studies, or social advocacy is a strong plus.
We are especially interested in candidates who:
-
Want real, hands-on experience in scaling a creative or media startup
-
Are motivated by building with limited structure, high autonomy, and strong purpose
-
Thrive when creating solutions, systems, and opportunities rather than inheriting them
Ideal Characteristics

Passionate about storytelling as a tool for representation and cultural change
-
Excited by the opportunity to co-create a company’s identity, strategy, and market presence

Strong communicator with the ability to collaborate with both creatives and business partners
-
Thinks critically, acts quickly, and learns fast
-
Not afraid to roll up sleeves and build from scratch
-
Seeking a leadership position with real opportunities to gain ownership, visibility, and influence

-
A strong belief that film and media can meaningfully shape culture and break socioeconomic barriers
-
A desire to create and reinforce artwork that matters to audiences, artists, and to the industry at large
