About SJH Studios

SJH Studios is the film and documentary division of SJH Group, producing official campaign films and strategic documentary content aligned with global institutions and international organisations.

Our work supports initiatives connected to UNESCO, the United Nations, and major international partners. We develop documentary-led campaigns focused on sustainability, education, infrastructure, innovation, and cultural advancement.

We specialise in purposeful storytelling — combining cinematic production with commercial strategy and cause-related marketing.

The Role

We are recruiting Commercial Executives to help develop and secure commercial partnerships across our international documentary campaigns.

This is a client-facing, revenue-generating position. You will introduce partnership opportunities to senior decision-makers and help fund major documentary and campaign initiatives with global reach.

Key responsibilities include:

Researching and engaging senior professionals across corporate, infrastructure, education, sustainability, and cultural sectors

Presenting documentary concepts and partnership frameworks via phone and video calls

Developing cause-related marketing propositions aligned with global campaigns

Managing and growing a structured commercial pipeline

Working closely with production and editorial teams to ensure alignment between commercial agreements and creative delivery

This is not a support role — it is a commercial position with clear accountability for revenue.

Who This Role Suits

We are looking for someone who:

Has 1–3 years’ experience in sales, partnerships, or commercial development (B2B preferred)

Has a genuine interest in documentary filmmaking and global affairs

Understands how brands align with purpose-led initiatives

Is confident, articulate, and comfortable engaging senior professionals

Wants to build a long-term career within film, media, and impact-driven campaigns

Experience in media, publishing, film production, sustainability, or corporate communications is advantageous but not essential.

What We Offer

£24,000 basic salary

Uncapped commission and performance bonus

Clear progression into senior commercial and executive producer-level roles

Exposure to international campaigns and institutional partnerships

A collaborative, ambitious in-house team environment

Salary: GBP 24000 - 45000 per year
