This role has two distinct but interconnected pillars:

Creative&Market Research– identifying viability, opportunity, partnerships, and placement

Digital Brand Curation– shaping how each concept is presented visually and digitally to the world

You will help determine whether an idea has real potential, where it could live globally, who it could partner with, and how it should be positioned to generate belief, traction, and alignment. Your work enables Originals to move forward into partnership and investment with clarity and credibility.

Proactively research and reach out to relevant players in the market

Assess differentiation, feasibility, and long‑term viability

Positioning&Narrative Framing

Help define how each Original is framed, described, and communicated

Support the articulation of intellectual property in a way that communicates intrigue, scale and longevity

Support the global positioning of Originals across territories, ensuring consistency of narrative while allowing for cultural adaptation

Digital Brand Curation&Presence

Curate and develop a digital presence for each Original concept (web, social, digital touchpoints)

Ensure digital positioning is visually engaging, resonant, and aligned with the intended market

Work with creatives to translate concepts into strong visual and digital storytelling systems

Maintain and evolve digital visibility as projects gain validation and maturity

Collaboration&Alignment

Work as a core member of the Originals team within The Storytelling Company

Collaborate closely with Product, Art Direction, and New Business colleagues

Support presentations, decks, and materials used for partnership and investment discussions

About The Storytelling Company The Storytelling Company creates experiences and cultural products at the intersection of technology, storytelling, and spatial design. Alongside commissioned work, our Originals department develops self‑initiated concepts: original experiences and location‑based products designed to scale, travel, and exist across markets and locations worldwide. These Originals, designed by flora&fauna visions, are developed as scalable formats and intellectual property. They are explored, refined, and brought into focus before stepping into partnership, investment, and ultimate realisation within The Storytelling Company.

Your profile We’re looking for someone who combines analytical research capability with strong digital positioning instincts, and who understands international markets.

You bring:

3+ years of experience in original experiences, location‑based projects, cultural products, or live entertainment contexts

Experience in creative research, market mapping, or early‑stage concept validation

Strong understanding of international markets and cross‑border cultural dynamics

Strong instinct for cultural timing and trend anticipation, with the ability to position concepts proactively rather than reactively

Experience researching partnerships, investment landscapes, or venue ecosystems

Confidence identifying and engaging relevant stakeholders in the market

Strong understanding of digital branding, positioning, and visual storytelling

Ability to separate research logic from brand expression while connecting both strategically

A structured, curious, and proactive way of working

Strong written and verbal communication skills in English

Experience working with scalable intellectual property, touring formats, or internationally deployed concepts is a strong plus.

What We Offer

A full‑time role within The Storytelling Company’s Originals department

The opportunity to shape how original experiences and location‑based products are researched, positioned, and introduced to the market

A collaborative, interdisciplinary environment spanning strategy, creativity, and commercial development

Space to experiment, explore, and build early momentum around new intellectual property

Flexible working setup (Berlin / Netherlands / hybrid / remote)

A culture that values curiosity, clarity, international thinking, and thoughtful execution
