Full Job Description

Creativity meets organisation in this role. Are you constantly on the lookout for fresh comedy talent and itching to get your hands on scripts? But equally adept at a good spreadsheet and colour coded diary management system?, In addition to supporting the Head of Comedy, the Development Assistant will support the development team with administrative tasks such as designing pitch decks, reading scripts, writing script reports, awards submissions, attending stand-up performances, and going along to readings and plays by new writers.

We're looking for a motivated and eager Development Team Assistant to join our Comedy team in London. The successful candidate will be committed to a career in scripted television. Driven by passion and curiosity, they will already be immersed in the industry.
Diary management experience is essential here, and ideally and Adobe Suite design skills too. We're looking for someone who can support the Head of Comedy and has worked in a personal assistant type role previously, but also demonstrates strong editorial interests and can champion what we create.
