The job
We’re looking for a motivated and ambitious assistant film producer to join our fast-growing, creative team. You’ll work with our team on a range of projects across our key client accounts. You will be involved in initial research and creative treatment, scripting and development, pre-production, shoot, post and delivery.
The film content we produce ranges from branded content, internal and external communications and PR, to learning and promotional material. Each film we produce must convey a client message in the most creative and engaging way possible and we work hard as a team to achieve this.
The ideal candidate for this role will have some production experience or education.
This is a great opportunity for someone at the start of a promising career, who wants first hand experience of the process of making films, being creative and dealing with clients in a professional environment.

You will be a communicator and a storyteller and enjoy the challenge of learning how to make films that resonate. Calm under pressure, you will demonstrate excellent attention to detail and professionalism.
You must be able to express yourself articulately and be a fluent writer. Our film producers write their own proposals and treatments so this is a key element of the role’s development goals.
The right candidate will be able to show successful outcomes within their experience of working in teams or small groups, be hardworking, diligent and passionate about delivering high-quality content regardless of scope, budget and timeline. This is a busy team so we are looking for a self-starter with a can-do attitude that can slot in immediately and hit the ground running.
