Job Description

BIFA is seeking a Production and Archive Assistant with research, organisational and editing skills. This role supports two distinct areas of BIFA's work: podcast and video content across BIFA's year-round activity, and the ongoing organisation and maintenance of the organisation's content archive.

The successful candidate will play a key role in maintaining and improving BIFA's extensive content archive: sorting, tagging and cataloguing video and photography, building and maintaining databases, auditing existing materials, and ensuring all content is accurate, consistent and easy to retrieve. This includes working across drives and existing systems to bring structure and clarity to a large volume of material. Alongside this, you will assist the marketing team with editing and preparing podcast and video content, building and maintaining timelines, producing short-form cutdowns to a brief and supporting the delivery of assets across platforms. You will also support the production of awards ceremony content, including gathering and managing clips for reels and packages, coordinating with external partners and assisting with delivery.

This is a unique opportunity for an organised, detail-oriented candidate with an interest in film and content production. The role would suit someone methodical and reliable, who is comfortable working within established processes and contributing as part of a small, collaborative team.
