About MUBI

MUBI is a global streaming service, production company and film distributor dedicated to elevating great cinema. To make this possible, we create, curate, acquire and champion visionary films, bringing them to audiences all over the world. We have a team of brilliant, dedicated and passionate people to help bring our mission to life. From London to New York, Istanbul to Paris, and Berlin to Mexico - we work together to realize MUBI’s vision.

That’s where you come in! Join our global team and help us make great cinema accessible to everyone, everywhere.

The role spans strategy and operations. On strategy, you will shape the frameworks behind how MUBI defines its slate, allocates content capital, and evaluates deals, and you will contribute directly to how our unique Content model develops. On operations, you will own the processes, reporting, and operating cadence that keep content decisions moving and hold the division to a high standard of execution. You will work closely with senior decision-makers and set the bar for how the function operates.

 
 

Where you’ll have impact:

  • Strategy and analysis

    • Contribute to shaping the frameworks MUBI uses to define its slate, set priorities, and evaluate deals,

    • Contribute to greenlight frameworks and bring discipline to capital-allocation decisions

    • Strengthen MUBI's position as the premier partner for filmmakers and the industry, including how we create value and structure repeat partnerships

    • Build the analysis behind real decisions: deal evaluations, release post-mortems, portfolio tradeoffs, and competitive assessments that lead to a clear recommendations

    • Run ad-hoc strategic work for the leadership, from market studies to one-off questions that need a fast, rigorous answer

  • Operations and execution

    • Contribute to and eventually own the operating rhythm of the Content division: the annual content plan, OKRs, QBRs, and recurring planning forums

    • Manage the day-to-day operational backbone of the content slate and the planning cadence that keeps decisions on schedule, setting the standard for how the function plans and executes

    • Own how the division reports on content performance, and set the standard others build to

    • Own the tooling and workflows behind content execution, and set how the function works day to day

    • Partner across Content, Finance, Legal, and Marketing to keep projects moving and to close the gaps in cross-functional work

 

What you will bring:

  • 3/4+ years in private equity, venture capital, investment banking, strategic finance, or a content strategy role, with a track record of strong analytical work and working with executive stakeholders

  • Hands-on experience building workflows and managing processes. Experience with a project management tool like Asana is a plus

  • The ability to take an ambiguous question and structure it into analysis that drives a decision

  • A track record of raising the standard of work around you, not just delivering your own

  • You've owned a strategic workstream or area end to end and can showcase this during an interview

  • Comfort with both the numbers and the film: you can build a model and hold a view on the work itself

  • Exceptional communication. You can turn a complex analysis into a memo a busy executive reads once and understands

  • Genuine ownership. You run your work end-to-end, surface risks early rather than sitting on them, and do what you say you'll do

  • Low ego and high pace. You move quickly, say the same thing in the room as in private, and care more about the outcome than the credit

  • A real interest in cinema. You don't need to be a critic, but you should care about film and about the filmmakers MUBI exists to serve

 

If you feel you’ve got what it takes but don’t meet all the requirements we’ve listed above, we’d still love to see your application!

We want to make cinema accessible to everyone. We believe people from different backgrounds bring different ideas that foster innovation and engagement, allowing us to attract great people to develop the best experience for our users.
