Hey, Red Bull Media House Hiring team!
I'll get right to it: this “EP, Non-Live” role seems completely up my alley & I feel uniquely qualified to make an impact in this position. Here's why...
As a creative producer with over 9 years of experience working on premium docuseries (in development, production, & post-production), my career path precisely fits what your listing states you're looking for... and in terms of interest/passion, I personally fit nicely into RBMH's target audience/demographic as a fan (and athlete) of action-adventure sports & culture. That rare circumstance will allow me to help curate stories & projects that are engaging & approachable for new & unfamiliar viewers, while remaining intensely satisfying for expert audiences. This balance is a familiar challenge that I deal with regularly while crafting sports docuseries like Box To Box's "Full Swing" (Netflix) and "Faceoff: Inside the NHL" (Amazon Prime Video).
To prove I'm the right candidate for this role, I want to share that I actually already have a concept & pitch deck for a potential docuseries featuring Red Bull athletes (that after just a few hours of tweaking would be) ready to approach athletes, co-production companies, and/or distributors in my first two weeks on the job. More on that when we meet. What a tease, I know...
Finally, I just want to share (although there's a chance this could actually hurt my application) that I have not been actively hunting for full-time jobs... I have been thriving in my "uninterrupted freelance" career BUT this opportunity seems handmade for me (so much that multiple friends sent me this job listing because they thought of me). So, it's not that I want A full-time job... It's that I want THIS full-time job. I would love the opportunity to discuss this EP role (and RBMH, in general) with you further.
Thank you!
