This role is IMI's presence in the creator world year‑round: attending major events, building relationships, and identifying the next generation of creators who belong in the IMI community.
Year‑round you will: Scout and cultivate relationships with emerging creators with a focus on growing IMI's creator community
Represent IMI at major creator and film events (including SXSW, Open Sauce, Tribeca, Sundance, and others) hosting dinners and building relationships on behalf of IMI

Experience organizing and hosting events, dinners, or gatherings — you know how to create a room people want to be in
Genuinely warm, curious, and responsive — you remember what people tell you, follow up without being asked, and never need to be chased down
A genuine fan of independent online media who knows the creator landscape and respects what creators do
Comfortable working directly with accomplished, opinionated people and earning their trust over time
Energized by being in the world and building relationships outside of an office
