• Coordinate with Lucasfilm, ILM, and Disney PR teams for required approvals.
• Run all briefing efforts for spokespeople for interviews, media days, and more.
• Manage media days and other press efforts end to end for both project campaigns and studio needs, including staffing interviews, pushing releases, and pulling breaks.
• Partner with internal production/development teams to ensure campaign messaging and PR contributions stay on track with the project creative and schedule.
• Support panel organization for spokespeople: crafting messaging outlines, researching and vetting moderators, coaching panelists, and managing the day of needs.
• Liaise with external talent for campaign opportunities with tact and professionalism.
• Contribute to thought leadership strategy, from recommendation to execution.
• Manage owned channel editorial opportunities within Lucasfilm and Disney, like StarWars.com, This Week In Star Wars, and more.

• Must be able to handle sensitive information and VIPs with discretion and tact.
• A collaborative, can-do spirit is key, with the intent of finding solutions rather than dwelling too long on problems.
• Ability to cultivate strong relationships with journalists to build long lasting opportunities is a must have.
• Familiarity or experience with immersive platforms and technology (VR, MR/AR, LBE, etc.) very desirable.
• Attention to detail plus a creative, strategic and responsible nature desirable.
