Part Time Job
My great assistant Jamie, is leaving and moving on to a new challenge after two cool and reasonably fun years. It will be very hard to replace her, but I'll try, for now It's back to me and Phoebe and her sidekick Comet( Phoebe is my office Manager, Comet hangs with her and yes they are Dogs, if you don't like Dogs you will have a hard time working for me)
This Job is:
Personal and Development Asst to a Director.
I am a working Director with quite a few major and minor projects and several awards and an obsession with Music and Quantum Physics. I have been developing several projects which seem to be on a path towards something, on the other hand, my agent and I are glad I have day gigs… enough about me.
YOU:
- Be willing and able and enthused(well not bitter) about personal tasks which come down largely to keeping my life and business organized and efficient and have an OCD like attention to detail..
- Be patient (not my strong suit,) with the nonstop parade of agents, lawyers, producers, landscapers, pool people and all forms of neurotic Hollywood types, patient yet firm.
- Experience managing schedules, calendar, appointments, travel, archiving of materials, maintaining website etc
- Script Coverage
- Formatting and putting together pitch decks, look-books and treatments with me.
- Be PUNCTUAL
- Skilled at doing Research.
- You must Write well, you must edit my sloppy writing.
- You must be able to work out of a home office in the west Valley.
- You must keep up with what is going on in the TV/Film industry, the world, the culture and the Knicks…(ok the last one is optional)
- Your schedule needs to be flexible, in addition to day work, at times I will send you to industry events, seminars, or talks.
- You MUST be handy with computer applications such as Power Point, Google Docs, adobe, if you know Final Cut that is a plus. Know your way around Apple computers.. and what annoying APPS I need or don't
- Be very smart about and crafty with Social Media, you will run mine, I'm up to 9 friends on Instagram, pretty cool. (please understand sarcasm, and irony)
- Please have a sense of humor, nearly everything I say is funny… at certain angles with good lighting anyway.
- You Must be able to travel on short notice and be prepared to work on location somewhere for a few months.
- You must pass a level 3 background check(not sure what a level 3 is but it sounds more ominous than a level 2) have a spot free driving record.
- I can't tell you whom I'm voting for, or ask you. I will say I do a lot of work with progressive causes: Healing our Planet, Equal Rights, electing Progressive and preventing others from being elected. I'm a garden variety Hollywood Liberal, again I will not and can't ask you about your politics, but now you know mine, please know you will be helping put together events and fundraisers this election season… Get what I'm saying?
- You MUST be creative, love TV/Film/web content, and have a burning passion to create.
- College Degree with major in related field of study.
- Experience in TV, Film, Web Content of at least 2 years, if just graduated at least two internships.
- Provide me with three names of people in the ''industry'' who will return phone calls.
OK, that's it, Carpe Diem... or at least as they say in NY ''F**king A''
If anyone has actually read this far and is still interested send your stuff asap. There will be a 3-stage hiring process, I expect to fill this position by mid-August... or earlier.

Oh and more one more thing, I am not a corporation and you don't have to address your letter ''To Whom it May Concern'' it only concerns me Michael and possibly to some degree Phoebe who can be listed as ''Hiring Manager''
