Film and HETV Job Description Templates

The BFI Skills Review 2022 notes the inconsistent use of job descriptions and specifications within physical production. The absence of a job description can:

• perpetuate the opaqueness of career pathways;
• prevent people from identifying the skills they need to progress;
• create barriers for people moving into production from other sectors; and
• make it harder for those returning to work in the industry after a period of absence.

To support freelance development in the sector and improve awareness and accessibility of jobs within the industry, we are seeking a supplier to:

• Review the current use of job descriptions within the UK film and TV production sector, currently existing resources, and identify roles and departments where they are not commonly used;
• Identify and agree with the BFI roles for which the creation of job description templates can be most useful and applicable, complementing any existing publicly available resources or ongoing work.
• Work with industry practitioners with hiring responsibilities to produce job description templates that can be adopted by productions at the contracting stage
• Use existing relationships to disseminate templates to productions and produce recommendations for long-term dissemination.
