Prior corporate/commercial production experience is super great, but for the right individual we will be willing to train. But either way, we will get you up to speed ASAP for immediate success. An outgoing and hungry attitude are the most important. We are looking to hire this position quickly, so this opening won’t be around for very long.

But before you apply, go to our website www.jmfilms.com and our new sister brand www.ryvalstudios.com and do some creeping around. Watch some of our work. If you think you’d be a perfect fit, tell us why. If you don’t think you would be, just skip this posting. We are only looking for the best, so we are selective who we interview and even more selective who we hire. If you think you’ve gotten what it takes, apply and we’ll be in touch if we think you have what we’re looking for.
