VOLUNTEER WORK TO START
About Us
We are a growing events team delivering exciting live events, bringing together artists, performers and audiences for memorable experiences.
As we continue to grow, we are looking for enthusiastic, reliable and motivated people to join our events team. This is an opportunity to gain real-world experience within the events, entertainment, marketing and media industries while being part of a growing team.
Please note that roles may initially be voluntary as we establish and grow the events, with the intention of developing opportunities for paid work as the business expands.
In return, team members will receive free access to our events and the opportunity to build experience, contacts and skills within the industry.

- Photograph and/or film events
- Capture artists, performers, crowds and behind-the-scenes content

Important Information About the Role
As we are currently growing, this role may initially be voluntary and unpaid. We want to be completely transparent about this from the outset.
Our aim is to grow the events operation and create more regular paid opportunities for team members as the business develops. Free entry to our events will be provided to team members in recognition of their involvement, subject to event capacity and our event policies.
