We are looking for someone who possesses a rare combination of organization, emotional intelligence, discretion, initiative, social intelligence, and adaptability.

You should be someone who:

• Notices details other people overlook.

• Thinks several steps ahead.

• Can manage multiple priorities without becoming overwhelmed.

• Is extremely organized.

• Communicates clearly and professionally.

• Is comfortable working independently.

• Does not need constant supervision.

• Understands the difference between being helpful and being intrusive.

• Can read a room.

• Knows when to speak and when to remain quiet.

• Can represent SHAMAYIM professionally when interacting with others.

• Is comfortable dealing with executives, creatives, models, clients, vendors, assistants, and production teams.

• Can build genuine professional relationships.

• Understands confidentiality and discretion.

• Can protect someone's time without creating unnecessary friction.

• Is calm under pressure.

• Is resourceful when something goes wrong.

• Can travel comfortably.

• Is willing to learn.

• Takes pride in anticipating needs rather than simply reacting to instructions.

This position requires someone who understands that SHAMAYIM is a creative director first.

During a production, SHAMAYIM prefers to remain focused on the camera, the subject, the lighting, the visual concept, and the creative process.

He does not enjoy unnecessary conversation or excessive interaction while working.

The right assistant therefore needs to understand how to support without interrupting.

You should be able to observe what is happening and determine:

• What needs to be handled immediately.

• What can wait.

• Who needs information.

• Who needs to be redirected.

• What SHAMAYIM needs before he asks.

• When he needs space.

• When communication is necessary.

• When you should step in and handle something yourself.

You will often need to become the social and logistical counterbalance to his creative focus.

If SHAMAYIM is concentrating on creating the image, you should be thinking about everything surrounding the image.

As you progress within the role, responsibilities may include:

• Managing and organizing SHAMAYIM's calendar.

• Coordinating appointments and meetings.

• Managing reminders and deadlines.

• Preparing daily and weekly schedules.

• Coordinating transportation.

• Managing travel itineraries.

• Researching hotels, flights, restaurants, studios, locations, and vendors.

• Preparing travel documents and itineraries.

• Managing personal and professional errands.

• Organizing receipts and documentation.

• Maintaining files and important information.

• Preparing materials for meetings and productions.

• Helping prioritize competing demands.

• Tracking outstanding tasks.

• Following up with people on SHAMAYIM's behalf.

• Making sure commitments do not fall through the cracks.

The assistant will gradually become integrated into SHAMAYIM Studios' production environment.

Responsibilities may include:

• Preparing production-day materials.

• Confirming call times.

• Communicating with models and creative teams.

• Coordinating vendors.

• Confirming studio and location details.

• Assisting with travel logistics.

• Keeping the production schedule moving.

• Managing behind-the-scenes logistics.

• Monitoring the production environment.

• Anticipating problems before they affect SHAMAYIM.

• Handling questions from team members.

• Helping maintain a professional environment.

• Coordinating meals, transportation, wardrobe, and other production needs.

• Keeping track of equipment and production items.

• Assisting with wrap and post-production logistics.

One of the most important aspects of this position is the ability to build and maintain relationships.

SHAMAYIM works with models, agents, casting directors, stylists, makeup artists, hair stylists, designers, producers, clients, brands, studios, hotels, vendors, and other creative professionals.

You will become an important point of contact within that ecosystem.

You should be naturally good with people.

You should be able to make people feel respected, informed, and taken care of.

Responsibilities may eventually include:

• Maintaining professional relationships.

• Following up with collaborators.

• Communicating availability.

• Confirming bookings.

• Coordinating introductions.

• Maintaining contact databases.

• Remembering important details about professional relationships.

• Checking in with collaborators after productions.

• Helping nurture relationships between projects.

• Representing SHAMAYIM and SHAMAYIM Studios professionally.

• Knowing when an issue should be handled independently and when it needs to be escalated.

Your ability to make people feel valued is just as important as your ability to organize a calendar.

A major responsibility of this position is learning how to guard SHAMAYIM's time, energy, attention, and creative environment.

This does not mean being rude or inaccessible.

It means understanding priorities.

You will learn to distinguish between:

Urgent
Something that requires immediate attention.

Important
Something that requires attention but can be scheduled appropriately.

Administrative
Something that can be handled without involving SHAMAYIM.

Unnecessary
Something that should not consume his time at all.

The goal is to reduce unnecessary interruptions and allow SHAMAYIM to remain focused on the work only he can do.

You do not need to be a photographer.

You do need to be visually observant and trainable.

SHAMAYIM Studios produces a significant amount of behind-the-scenes content, and the assistant will gradually learn how to document the environment surrounding productions.

Training may include:

• Smartphone photography.

• Behind-the-scenes video.

• Vertical social media content.

• Production documentation.

• Capturing candid moments.

• Understanding composition.

• Understanding lighting.

• Basic editing.

• Organizing media.

• Selecting strong BTS moments.

• Creating usable social content.

• Understanding what should and should not be documented.

The objective is not to turn you into a photographer.

The objective is to make you capable of documenting the world around SHAMAYIM without disrupting it.

Travel is an important component of this position.

SHAMAYIM's work can require travel for:

• Editorial productions.

• Commercial campaigns.

• Model portfolio development.

• Masterclasses.

• Creative expeditions.

• Brand projects.

• Film productions.

• Meetings.

• International projects.

The assistant must be comfortable traveling and capable of maintaining organization while moving between cities and countries.

Travel responsibilities may eventually include:

• Flight coordination.

• Hotel coordination.

• Ground transportation.

• Itinerary management.

• Restaurant reservations.

• Production logistics.

• Travel documentation.

• Packing coordination.

• Managing changes and delays.

• Communicating with local teams.

• Maintaining schedules across different time zones.

The expectation is that travel should feel organized rather than chaotic.

This position involves access to SHAMAYIM's personal life, business operations, clients, finances, creative projects, relationships, and private conversations.

Discretion is mandatory.

The assistant must understand that not everything they see, hear, or participate in is theirs to discuss.

You will be expected to:

• Maintain confidentiality.

• Protect private information.

• Respect NDAs and production agreements.

• Never gossip about clients, models, collaborators, or private situations.

• Maintain professional boundaries.

• Conduct yourself appropriately in professional environments.

• Represent SHAMAYIM Studios with maturity.

Trust is earned.

This is not a position for someone who wants to simply:

• Run errands.

• Carry bags.

• Wait for instructions.

• Spend the day on a phone.

• Be socially involved in every production.

• Seek attention.

• Constantly ask what to do next.

• Become involved in creative decisions that are not theirs to make.

• Treat proximity to SHAMAYIM as a social opportunity.

This position requires service, intelligence, initiative, discretion, and discipline.

The best assistant is often the person nobody notices because everything is already handled.
