About DramaBox:

DramaBox is reshaping entertainment for the vertical screen generation. With bite-sized, binge-worthy dramas tailored for mobile-first audiences, we’re building a new kind of storytelling brand—one that blends classic emotional arcs with cutting-edge format innovation. As we expand our presence in the U.S. market, we’re looking for community-savvy, genre-loving talent to help us spark fandoms, amplify voices, and grow our cultural footprint.

About the Role:

We’re seeking a well-connected and charismatic Local Social Media & Events Manager to join our growing team.

You’ll be our on-the-ground connector—building buzz around our shows, nurturing a vibrant fan community, and driving local activations that bring DramaBox to life, both online and IRL.

Ideal candidates have experience in entertainment publicity, creator/talent relations, live event coordination, and digital campaign support. You’re a natural people person with strong industry instincts, a finger on the pulse of fandom and pop culture, and a passion for vertical storytelling.

Key Responsibilities:

• Identify grassroots opportunities that build hype, loyalty, and user-generated momentum.

Digital & Campaign Support

• Collaborate with the Social Media Manager to amplify releases, promos, and tentpole campaigns across platforms.
• Contribute creative ideas that merge content strategy with in-person marketing efforts.

• Coordinate appearances, on-site interactions, interviews, and social content.
• Prepare press briefs and talking points to ensure alignment with brand voice.
• Make cast and creators feel supported and confident during events, press, and content captures.

Press & Media Relations

• Maintain media contact lists and industry relationships.
• Pitch stories, secure press coverage, and support the creation of press kits and EPKs.
• Liaise with journalists, influencers, and content creators across vertical drama, TV, streaming, webnovels, and BookTok spaces.

Event Planning & Execution

• Lead logistics for local activations: venue scouting, vendor coordination, RSVPs, live social coverage, and post-event follow-up.
• Support press junkets, premieres, creator Q&As, and media days.

Messaging Oversight & Brand Safety

• Monitor public-facing communication from talent and creators to ensure consistency and appropriateness.
• Proactively flag messaging risks and help shape narrative strategy across platforms.

Performance Tracking & Internal Sync

• Track media mentions, event impact, and audience sentiment.
• Share insights and recaps with cross-functional teams to refine future activations.
• Work closely with development, social, production, and marketing to ensure campaign cohesion.

Qualifications:

• 5+ years of experience in entertainment publicity, events, digital marketing, or community/talent management
• Strong network in film, TV, publishing, or digital storytelling spaces—especially in fandom-driven genres
• Experience coordinating events, managing appearances, and working directly with talent
• Excellent written, verbal, and interpersonal communication skills
• Detail-oriented and organized, with the ability to juggle multiple timelines and deliverables
• Collaborative, adaptive, and unflappable in high-energy environments
• Deep familiarity with vertical short dramas, BookTok trends, fandom culture, or romance/genre IPs is a major plus

Nice-to-Haves:

• Experience supporting short-form video formats or working with influencer-driven campaigns
• Background in creator marketing, live fan events, or digital/IRL activations
