Junior Producer

About the job

We’re looking for a Junior Producer who is excited to learn, grow and develop their career in video production and workshops. This is a junior role with clear opportunities to progress towards becoming a Producer. You’ll play a vital part in supporting our production team, while also taking ownership of specific responsibilities, including handling enquiries for Nine Elms Studio and Chocolate Films Workshops.

WHAT IS CHOCOLATE FILMS?

At Chocolate Films, we produce video content for museums, art galleries, charities and corporate clients, with an exciting and inspiring client list. Chocolate Films has been run as a social enterprise ever since it was founded in 2001. We use profits from our video production services to support a wide range of film making experiences for children, young people and vulnerable adults.

WHAT DOES THE JOB ENTAIL?

As a Junior Producer, you’ll gain hands-on experience across production, client management and studio operations. You’ll be supported by senior producers, while gradually taking on more responsibility as your skills and confidence grow.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Handling and responding to enquiries for Nine Elms Studio and Chocolate Films Workshops.
• Being the first point of contact for clients and guests at Nine Elms Studio.
• Supporting with office management
• Organising studio maintenance, when required.

• Supporting the creative process with research and idea development.
• Helping ensure projects are delivered on time, to brief and on budget.
• Keeping project documentation and databases up to date (using tools such as Basecamp and Hubspot).

This role is designed to develop you into a Producer, with regular opportunities to expand your responsibilities and take on projects more independently.

WHAT ARE WE LOOKING FOR IN A CANDIDATE?

A COMMUNICATOR.

You’ll often be the first point of contact for studio hires and workshop enquiries, so you’ll need to be confident in speaking and writing clearly with clients and colleagues.

AN ORGANISER.

You’ll be juggling multiple responsibilities, so strong organisational skills and attention to detail are key.

A TEAM PLAYER.

You’ll be supporting producers and filmmakers, so collaboration and a willingness to get stuck in are essential.

Our workshops and productions are equally important to our mission. We’re looking for someone who believes the media industry should be more open, equal and diverse, and who wants to help make that happen.

• An interest in building a career in video production and creative workshops.
• Strong organisational and communication skills.
• A proactive and positive attitude.
• Knowledge of project management tools (e.g., Basecamp, Hubspot) is desirable but not essential.
