About 9miles:
Our vision for 9miles Media is to allow young people to experience what the working world is like and gain first-hand knowledge of how the creative field functions while taking on real-world client projects that have an impact.
We believe that our work is of great quality, our prices competitive, and that our services would be easy for an experienced person to sell.
We’re all under 25, working from home (and the occasional coffee shop), doing what we love, and having a blast. This position is open to anyone young at heart!
