A full-time creative job at FKC in London, United Kingdom

Bringing ideas to life. That’s what we do in the Production Department at FKC.

It’s where creativity meets reality, and where the ads effectively get made (and paid for). TV, Radio, Print – you name it, if it needs producing, it happens here.

As a Production Assistant, you’d be responsible for ensuring that the process of producing ads is efficient and the advertising material is made to the highest quality, on time and on budget.

One day you could be booking a celebrity voiceover and the next you could be on a film set. Similarly you could be arranging POs or drawing up time lines. The role is extremely versatile and that’s why we need someone who can adapt to different situations with ease.

Experience is desirable, but not essential in every area as training will also happen on the job.

So if you’re looking to take your next step in the world of Production, this is your chance to do it working for a top 100 agency with a great work/play philosophy.
