Content Partnerships Coordinator

Job Vision Trust is the funding and development arm of the larger FM.co family of brands. Trust exists to provide filmmakers with capital and resources to bring their visions to life. Through direct film funding to commissioning work that generates revenue to buyouts of previous work to secure capital for a future project, Trust works with filmmakers in many ways to allow them to create on their own terms. Trust then takes that footage and licenses it to generate its own revenue which allows us to fund more projects. This role includes management of the contract editors who shape and curate footage, sourcing and buying pre-made assets, and maintaining the administrative work that this work requires. You'll report and collaborate closely with the Director of Trust to learn and grow the business but primarily invest your time and effort in editor direction, curation, and buyout pipeline. What You’ll Do Editor management and footage curation Manage a roster of contract editors, including finding new editors, assigning work, setting curation standards, reviewing output, and giving clear feedback Own curation quality across footage: what makes the cut, how it's organized, and how it's prepped for the library Keep editors unblocked and on schedule, balancing efficiency with quality Maintain and refine curation guidelines as the catalog and Trust's needs evolve Asset buyouts Source pre-made assets that fit Trust's library strategy and gaps Evaluate assets for quality, rights, fit, and ROI before purchase Negotiate and execute buyouts, tracking spend against budget Maintain clean records of what was bought, from whom, and under what terms Help analyze and evaluate buyout process to ensure that each opportunity is fair and valuable Administrative Own the paperwork and tracking tied to editor contracts and asset purchases (agreements, invoices, payment coordination, rights documentation, talent and property releases) Own the management of footage as it moves through the pipeline (footage review, tagging, featuring stand out footage, and operating within Trust’s footage management platform) Keep acquisition and curation data accurate and current in our systems Report on pipeline status, spend, and throughput to Director of Trust Coordinate across Trust and the wider FM org as needed What We’re Looking For Experience managing contractors or freelancers, ideally editors or creative talent A strong eye for footage quality and a sense for what makes a library valuable - understanding what’s trending in advertising Comfort with buyout/licensing negotiating and the rights questions that come with them Organized and detail-driven Self-directed and able to own a workflow end-to-end Clear, direct communicator Nice To Have Background in commercial producing, post-production, or media licensing Familiarity with digital asset managers and project management platforms like ClickUp Experience tracking budgets or spend Experience negotiating deals for projects What Success Looks Like Library curation stays top tier, with footage selected, organized, and prepped to a consistently high standard Contract editors operate with clear direction, accountability, and strong, on-time output Asset buyouts are well-sourced, fairly priced, and aligned to library strategy and gaps Buyout spend stays on budget and delivers strong value per dollar Rights, contracts, and acquisition records remain clean, accurate, and audit-ready Curation standards stay current as the catalog and Trust's needs evolve The curation and buyout pipeline aligns smoothly with commissioned and funded production work Workflows align effectively with broader FM systems, processes, and priorities
