Job description

About Us

The Cutting Room Floor began as a fashion & culture podcast and is evolving into a broader media company built on the belief that thoughtful conversation can meaningfully contribute to the industry it examines. Over the years, we have earned the trust of a global audience of designers, executives, journalists, students, and some of fashion's most engaged observers. Founded by a creator whose perspective remains central to the brand, the company is entering a new phase of growth as we expand our team and ambitions.

This is an exciting time to join a company at a genuine inflection point. We’re no longer an early‑stage project, but we are also not a mature institution. Many of the systems and processes that will define the company are being shaped in real time. As we expand, our focus remains on preserving the qualities that have defined The Cutting Room Floor from the beginning: cultural clarity, discerning taste, and a high standard for the work.
