About This Job

If you're looking for a role where you're trusted to lead, grow, and help shape two exciting and fast-moving creative businesses, this is it.

We’re Philly Photo & Philm and Rival Sports Media, two connected brands offering custom photo, video, and content creation services across marketing, corporate, personal events, school photography, and sports media. From trade shows and brand activations to school portraits and live-streamed sports, we work with clients who value high-quality visuals, fast turnarounds, and creative solutions.

We're looking for a Business Development & Operations Manager who can take charge of both revenue generation and business administration. You’ll be empowered to work independently, think like an owner, and help us serve clients while growing the business. If you're someone who thrives on challenge, hates being micromanaged, and wants the freedom to perform with purpose—this is your lane.
