Assistant Producer

London

Our people are at the heart of everything we do at ITN. It's vital that our workforce reflects the diversity of both our audience and the wider society in the UK, so we're proud to be an equal opportunities employer and we actively seek candidates from diverse backgrounds and communities. We also recognise the importance of a good work life balance, so we do everything we can to accommodate flexible working, including part-time and job shares for all our roles. Please just let us know in your application or at any stage throughout the process if this is something you want to explore.

The Education department is a division within ITN Productions, producing 3-4 minute videos for students learning English as a foreign language across the world, including Brazil, Mexico, China and Japan, and our clients are global publishers.

We license TV factual entertainment, TV documentaries, travel logs, cookery programmes and other great existing content from around the world and re-purpose them into fantastic, award-winning short films to help students learn English faster & smarter. We consume archive at an alarming rate and when we can't find what our clients want, we harness the production resources of one of the biggest indie production companies in the UK, ITN Productions and go film it ourselves. We've produced over 100 videos in the last six months alone.

We're looking to expand our team and are currently looking for an Assistant Producer who can cope with a fast paced environment, can multitask, and preferably has experience with licensing third party footage, basic editing and producing short documentaries.
