About The Position

The Arena is an independent studio creating global franchises inspired by the worlds of gaming, anime, and event action. With a world-class executive team, robust financing, and deep access to top-tier IP, it is uniquely equipped to build a modern fandom ecosystem. The Arena is a space for and by fans. It engages and expands committed fanbases through an always-on model of offerings, including premium film and television, robust social media communities and content, experiential events, and consumer goods. The Arena is committed to artistic ambition and excellence across its slate of blockbuster films and event series. Producing and financing projects made alongside renowned filmmakers and breakout talents, it aims to blend prestige-level quality with franchise scale, doing justice to some of the world’s most beloved properties and their fans.

We are looking for an experienced Executive Assistant with a passion for marketing and brand to work directly with the President of Marketing & Brand. This role sits at the center of the President’s day-to-day operations. You’ll help manage the flow of information, priorities, and communication across internal teams and external partners. The right person is highly organized, calm under pressure, and able to keep multiple moving pieces aligned without losing sight of the bigger picture.

You’ll own travel arrangement and expense management the same way as calendar management and scheduling, help prepare for and follow up on meetings, capture key notes and decisions, and make sure conversations translate into clear next steps. Just as importantly, you’ll support the marketing side of the organization — helping coordinate decks and documents, organizing creative assets, and working with external creative, brand, and production partners.

We are looking for someone with 2-3 years of professional experience, strong organizational instincts, and an interest and base understanding of how creative and marketing teams operate within entertainment or media.

You should be someone who not only keeps things running smoothly, but who is a fan and with a passion for today's pop culture and is deeply immersed in anime, gaming, and modern action storytelling — as well as the communities that surround them.

This role is ideal for someone who wants a front-row seat to how modern franchises are built and is eager to grow within marketing, brand, and franchise development over time.

Requirements

• 2–3 years of professional experience in an assistant, or marketing coordinator role
• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Marketing, Communications, Media Studies, or a related field preferred — or equivalent professional experience
• Applicants must be authorized to work in the United States. Arena SNK does not provide visa sponsorship.

Nice To Haves
