This is the first time I am seeing creators hiring for hardcore business roles! Like I always say, all creators are businesses and in the future we will see a huge chunk of good talent moving into the creator economy and enabling the next wave of growth! If you are in college, prepare yourself & follow this space because it will blow up over the coming years! #creatoreconomy

A few reasons Sling & Stone is a great place to work: 1. Agency leaders care about work/life balance: My boss has texted me before to call me out for being on Slack after hours and remind me to turn my work brain off, and that's just one (funnier) example 📱 2. Slingers have a say in what companies we work with: a gorgeous agency-wide discussion happened via Slack last week on whether or not to work with a certain brand and our agency leaders took our feedback to heart. If you want to know who and what we decided on, apply below 😏 3. We laugh a lot and that makes things fun 🦀

Why You Should Hire Folks from Television/Entertainment/Production. Video link - https://lnkd.in/dWgatwY2 As an Executive Producer with years of television experience working in Unscripted, Documentary and Reality, I regularly hold group meetups and make tutorial videos to help junior production team members learn more about all things production: the industry, field and post processes, working with networks, etc. But this video is for people working in other industries - recruiters, hiring teams, HR managers, anyone responsible for hiring new staff. I want you to understand the current situation in the entertainment industry, the number of production folks currently looking for work, the broad skill set they can bring to your team and why you should hire them. Over the past year, the need for changes in the industry surfaced in many different ways. As a result of strikes, mergers and financial constraints, the entertainment industry is not in a good place, and Unscripted Television has come to an almost complete halt. (Sidenote: Unscripted does not have a union, and there are few to no protections.) Production folks from all departments have been out of work for months, projects are not getting the green light, and online production groups are filled with people (of all experience levels) looking for work and sharing personal stories of financial challenges. Many are selling their homes, limiting family activities, living off of credit cards…let’s just say it’s an overall unfortunate situation. For those of you outside or unfamiliar with the entertainment industry and the layered process of putting together any type of production, I’m not sure that it’s clear how strong, resourceful, diligent, adaptable and reliable production folks are. (And yes, we’ve got a little OCD with some perfectionist tendencies on the side as well.) This video details the broad strokes of production and the collective responsibilities handled by team members. I hope you’ll watch. I hope you won’t overlook resumes filled with entertainment experience. And I hope you’ll reach out to me if I can either tell you more or help connect you to this incredible pool of talented people. #recruiters #hiringmanagers #recruiter #talent #hire #hiring #jobopportunity #entertainmentindustry #job

Could you help revive the fantastic Belmont Cinema and make it become a top venue in Aberdeen again? Check out the post below for more info. It would suit someone who's creative, ambitious, partnership focused, commercially minded with the strong ability to influnce incl. potentially looking at a more sophisticated, softer and apt job title for this role too - hope you don't mind me saying this Belmont Cinema 😉. As this job title comes across as very commercial and masculine. And job titles do matter. And I suspect you don't want to close the door before the conversation has even started. Because people love brands and they will help you inadvertently make the income you're looking for. And you don't want to miss out on a great pool of candidates because the job title, to me at least, comes across as potentially excluding? So how about 'Head of Brand & Customer Experience'? Or something along those lines? I'm sure you can think of other, even better job titles, than these. Or even easier, come up with a few suggestions and do a quick LinkedIn survey for the job title? You'll get traction and increase your visibility this way too. Or look for a local creative/copywriting agency that can help with your Tone of Voice(ToV)/copy for this role? Good luck 🤞. P. S. And nice video guys. Keep going! P. P. S. You need a commercially focused, brand loving marketer. Not necessarily 'just' a sales person. No offence to any sales people out there. Or the mix of Elle, Ted and another, but maybe not quite 'Wolf of Wall Street' kind of guy? Ha, ha! Why? 🤔 P. P. P. S. Check out April Dunford on LinkedIn. She talks about positioning. It may help you. #independentcinema #aberdeen #branding #aberdeenjobs
