What you’ll be doing…

• Supporting the team with general administrative duties in the office.
• Providing key production assistance and co-ordination support across a range of productions.

Who you are…

• You’re based in the Manchester area.
• You’re proactive, can think on your feet and are able to juggle a few things at once.
• You’re the sort of person who loves to keep things organised and enjoy working as part of a team as well as independently.
• If you don’t have previous experience, you’ll need a desire to learn all about production and postproduction workflows and understand all the necessary paperwork that is required.
• It would be amazing if you are already first aid trained but this isn’t mandatory as we will provide this training for you if required.
• If you are aware of Albert and Sustainability, then that’s definitely an added bonus!
