Wonder Studios•New York, NY

2d•$140,000 - $160,000•Onsite

About The Position

Wonder Studios is an AI-native film and creative studio redefining how stories are told. We partner with global brands, artists, and studios to create award winning campaigns, films, and experiences that merge cinematic craft with cutting-edge AI technology. We’ve raised more than $15 million from elite investors including LocalGlobe, Atomico and Adobe as well as angels from the leading AI companies including OpenAI, ElevenLabs, Google DeepMind. We’re now a team of 35+ based around the world with offices in London, LA, NYC and SF. Wonder's agency work is where brands first experience what AI-native production can do, and it's the commercial engine that funds everything else we build. We've already built relationships with partners including Google, Universal Music Group, major streamers, brands and sports teams and this role exists to own and grow that momentum, deepening our relationships in the US and building the pipeline that will define Wonder's next chapter there. We're looking for someone who has spent their career inside the advertising world, leading client relationships at a brand or agency, and who wants to bring that network and understanding of the traditional industry to a company building the next generation of production. You understand how a brief becomes a pitch, how a pitch becomes a scope, and how a scope becomes a partnership that lasts beyond one campaign. You know how to sit across the table from a CMO or brand lead, translate what they need into something creatively ambitious and commercially sound, and manage that relationship with the judgment a top agency client team brings to every account. You'll work directly with Wonder's CEO and creative team to own go-to-market for our brand and agency partnerships in New York end to end, while helping define how Wonder positions itself to an industry still working out what AI-native production services means for their business.
