Junior Production Coordinator/Office Assistant
London
PLEASE DO NOT APPLY IF YOUR SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE DO NOT MEET THE CRITERIA AS YOUR APPLICATION WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED. WE DO NOT HAVE ANY OTHER ROLES AVAILABLE.
We are listing this vacancy as a 'Junior Production Coordinator' role as we feel that this job title better describes the role as requiring someone with some television production experience, looking for their next move within the industry. This is not an entry level position.
Award winning producers are looking for a dynamic individual to join the team as a runner/office assistant.
The role would suit someone with a passion for factual television who is proactive, incredibly organised, able to work under pressure and use their own initiative. It is a fantastic role for someone looking to progress towards a production coordinator role and will provide an opportunity to be involved with factual production from development to delivery.
Ideally the candidate will have some previous experience of working in television production in a similar role and be happy and confident working to a number of managers across a range of tasks.
A technical understanding of, or at least an interest in, video and post production equipment would be an advantage.
