About Us
National CineMedia (NCM) is America’s Movie Network – we’re the largest, most innovative cinema advertising network in the U.S. and we’re completely obsessed with movies. As obsessed as Darth Vader was with taking down the Jedi and ruling the galaxy but with less drama. So, if you like the movies then you’ll love us!
Over 600 million moviegoers each year know us from when they get to their seat early at the movie theater. Have you seen the Noovie pre-show? We did that! Beyond the big screen, we extend our movie-centric content to reach diverse entertainment audiences through groundbreaking digital apps like Noovie Arcade and Noovie Trivia.
Our mission is to unite brands with young, diverse audiences through the power of movies and pop culture, and it takes a lot of talented NCMers working hard and collaborating behind the scenes to make the magic happen here. As America’s premium destination for cinema advertisers, NCM offers unparalleled audience engagement, presenting our Noovie pre-show on over 18,400 screens in over 1,450 theaters every day.

Sharing our passion & caring for our communities
We love working for a company that has a big heart and is committed to giving back to the communities where we live and work. Here at NCM, we are truly passionate about making a positive difference in the lives and well-being of others, and we’re inspired by our team members’ charitable involvement and volunteering efforts through the NCM Cares Committee and our NCM Charity Half-Day Program.
Charity Half Days
Team members who make a small monthly contribution via a payroll deduction receive a paid half-day off that month. NCM then donates the charity dollars to designated charities selected by our employees themselves. Team members are also able to request Charity Half-Day funds to pay the entry fees for charity-sponsored events.
NCM Cares Committee
This is an employee-led, group volunteering initiative that brings NCM team members together to give back to our communities through donations of time, money, and/or goods to various worthy causes throughout the year.
Our Leadership
The magic starts at the top! Our senior leaders continually propel us forward with their visionary thinking and a shared commitment to our core values.
