Preferred

You're early in your career but you think like an owner. You don't wait to be told what to do - you're looking for a launching pad and ready to show what you’re made of.
You have a sharp creative eye and can shoot, edit, and publish content that actually performs — Reels, TikToks, Stories, the works
You understand that great marketing at this level is part instinct, part hustle, and part data, and you're comfortable with all three
You're motivated by goals, not just tasks. Hitting a number feels good to you, and beating a number feels even better

Sofar Sounds

3.8 Glassdoor

Sofar is a global community reimagining the art of live experiences—turning unconventional spaces into intimate showcases for local grassroots art and culture. Born in a London flat in 2009, Sofar began as an answer to a growing problem: live music had lost its magic. It blossomed into a global movement that kept music at its heart while expanding to comedy, dating, food & drink, dance, and more—all connected by Sofar’s renowned track record for discovering rising talent. Countless mainstage performers like Billie Eilish, Jack Harlow, Chappell Roan, Leon Bridges, YEBBA, Teddy Swims, Remi Wolf, Hozier, and Lola Young have played Sofar shows early in their careers. In the past four years alone, Sofar alumni have earned 129 Grammy nominations and 21 wins. Each Sofar show is one-of-a-kind due to the surprising pairing of live experiences with unconventional spaces. Sofar has hosted shows in caves; churches; hidden museum rooms; private living rooms, gardens, and rooftops; a ski jump tower; countless boats, ships, and catamarans; a toy shop; a wax museum; and many other delightful places. With a network of over 10,000 venues and tens of thousands of extraordinary emerging artists, Sofar creates live performances in spaces that reflect the soul of neighborhoods and cities. Past partners include 20th Century Fox, Anheuser-Busch, Arc'teryx, Delta, Focus Features, Ford, Lexus, Lyft, Pernod Ricard, Sierra Nevada, Showtime, Sony, Visa, and many others.
