As a student assistant in Cinematekets program editorial team, you contribute to developing, coordinating and communicating Cinematekets diverse film program. You will have a varied everyday with editorial, communicative and practical tasks and the opportunity to contribute with your own ideas.

About us

Cinemateket is part of the Danish Film Institute, and every month has more than 100 screenings in cinemas on Gothersgade in Copenhagen: premieres, classics, festival gems, cult films and documentaries – for both connoisseurs and the curious.

Cinematekets offerings also include Filmtaget with the film museum, rooftop terrace and open-air cinema, where Cinematekets program is responsible for the film program. A subset of the program is also shown at Cinematekets branches in Aarhus, Odense, Aalborg and Kolding, just as there are Cinematek screenings and open-air events across the country.

About the position

We are looking for a student assistant who wants to become part of the program editorial team and contribute broadly to developing, coordinating and communicating our film program.

You will get close to the daily editorial work and have a varied role with both editorial, communicative, administrative and practical tasks. There will be both fixed routine tasks and opportunities to participate in developing new initiatives.

You will, among other things,

• work with film data and texts for our program, including input and proofreading.
• assist with outreach and communication around screenings, including contact with relevant partners and audiences across channels.
• support ongoing planning and operations with administrative and practical tasks, e.g. documentation, creation of ticket links and bookings in the editorial systems
• have the opportunity to contribute your own ideas for film series and events and help take them from idea to meeting with the audience.

About you

We imagine that you are interested in film and cultural communication, and that you are studying at a higher education level – preferably with some time left of your studies so you can be part of our team for a longer period. It is a requirement that you are enrolled and an active student in a higher education program.

You do not need to know all of film history by heart. The most important is that you are curious about film, want to learn more and are interested in how film can be communicated to different audiences.

We also value that you

• work independently, efficiently and responsibly
• write clearly and professionally in Danish and have an eye for linguistic details
• are comfortable with IT and eager to learn new systems and databases

Experience with text editing, communication, databases or similar is an advantage, but not a requirement.

You will become part of a lively film environment with broad contact across the Danish Film Institute and Cinematek.

Employment terms

Salary and terms of employment are according to the collective agreement between the Ministry of Finance and Public Employees’ Organizations – The State Sector and the collective agreement for office functions, laboratory workers and IT staff (HK).

Your working hours will be an average of 15 hours per week, and planned with consideration to your classes and exams.
