Are you passionate about human rights? Are you curious about the vital role they play in communities across the UK? Are you a creative storyteller? Can you help us amplify marginalised voices for a national audience? If your answers to these questions is ‘yes’, you could be the new Film Assistant here at EachOther.

Reporting to our Film Producer, Jack Satchell, you will assist in the creation of a range of multimedia content, including but not limited to: short documentaries, explainer videos, commissioned films, social media content, livestreams and more. You’ll assist on film shoots, edit videos, create assets, help design campaigns around video releases and post content to our website and social media channels.

As a filmmaker for an expanding human rights charity, you will have an interest in rights-related questions in the UK and be aware of the Human Rights Act. You’ll be able to produce high-quality video edits and visual assets under creative guidance. You’ll also have an interest in harnessing social media as a reporting tool and will look to develop skills in multimedia reporting.

You will be a considered storyteller, with some experience of filmmaking, which could be through previous jobs, education or your own personal interest. You will be keen to explore creative ways of telling stories through different forms of media, and to engage with a range of groups in a whole host of settings.
