Production Assistant
As one of the UK's leading video production companies, ID2 Media is looking for an enthusiastic and organised Production Assistant to join our growing team.
We produce high-quality video content for some of the world's leading brands, creating everything from corporate films and branded content to social media campaigns and documentary-style productions.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to begin a career in commercial video production. As part of our production team, you'll help support the day-to-day running of our busy production office while gaining first-hand experience of every stage of the production process, from the initial client brief through to filming, post-production and final delivery.
No two days are the same, making this an ideal role for someone who enjoys variety, is highly organised and is keen to learn.
The Role
Responsibilities will include:
- Supporting the Producers and Production Manager with the day-to-day running of productions
- Answering the telephone and welcoming clients and visitors
- Helping to keep the office organised and running efficiently
- Preparing production paperwork, call sheets, presentations and other production documents
- Booking travel, accommodation, couriers and other production logistics when required
- Liaising with clients, contributors, freelancers and suppliers
- Supporting post-production workflows and general administrative tasks
- Carrying out research to support productions where required
- Assisting with the preparation of equipment and resources for filming
- Providing general support on filming days when required
This role offers the opportunity to work on productions throughout the UK and, occasionally, internationally, so some travel may be required.
About You
The ideal candidate will be:
- Friendly, enthusiastic and professional
- Highly organised with excellent attention to detail
- A confident communicator with a good standard of written and spoken English
- Comfortable working across a variety of tasks and priorities
- Reliable, proactive and willing to get stuck in
- Confident using Microsoft Office and everyday computer systems
- Interested in video production and how creative projects are brought to life
- Keen to learn and develop within a creative production company
A degree in media, film, communications or an English related subject would be beneficial, although it isn't essential. More important is a positive attitude, a willingness to learn and a genuine ambition to build a career in commercial video production.
At ID2 Media, you'll have the opportunity to develop your skills within a supportive team, working on projects for major global brands while gaining valuable experience across every stage of the production process.
To apply
Please send us your CV along with a covering letter telling us a little about yourself, why you're interested in a career in video production and what attracted you to ID2 Media.
As clear written communication is an important part of this role, we'll be paying close attention to the quality of your covering letter. It's your opportunity to tell us what makes you a great fit for the role.
