Visit OpportunityOur current fabulous BFI NETWORK Officer Abi is off to work on a production, so we have a vacancy for someone for six-seven months whilst she is on sabbatical.
You will be responsible for delivering our events and professional development programmes for new talent in the South East region. You will be liaising with a range of partner organisations across the South East and delivering a range of events and activities from screenings to training courses and script development programmes. You need to be passionate about new talent, supportive and good at outreach; a self-starter with great administration skills and an understanding of the needs of emerging talent. You might have worked in the industry section at a film festival, for a cinema or in production across film or television. You might also work as an independent producer or other production professional in your own right. You must be willing to work hard, be able to juggle competing workloads, and work to deadlines.
In return, we can offer responsibility, opportunities for training and development and the chance to work with a friendly, creative team at the forefront of independent cinema exhibition and talent development in the UK. We provide access to an Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) – a confidential information and counselling service for employees and to Occupational Health services; a dedicated HR consultant for staff support; access to a SMARTPensions scheme; annual train ticket loans; flexible working practices; flexibility around childcare hours/needs; invites to events and festivals, and other benefits.
Our offices are in London and in line with our new hybrid working policy we would expect you to come into the office one day a week but otherwise you can work from home (you can work from the office more days if you prefer). It would be an advantage if you are familiar with the South East region and some of the organisations that support talent located there, but not essential.
The post is currently delivered three days a week, working eight-hour days (including one hour for lunch) but we are open to it being delivered across a greater number of days.
