AddressAre you keen to join a Film & Television Post Production studio in the Redfern/Surry Hills area, contributing to world class feature films, high end drama series and impactful documentaries?
We are searching for a Studio Assistant who will make a strong first impression to the producers, directors, editors and creatives that walk through our door, and make the smooth running of our Sydney office their passion.
The Post Lounge is a national film and television post production company with an international footprint, working with brands like Disney, Netflix, Amazon, Foxtel, Stan, ABC TV, SBS and Warner Bros, from studios in Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne. The Studio Assistant plays an integral role in the running of our team, ensuring that all of our projects get to the screen - and seeing them up there, you will feel pride in the success of your work.
We are looking for someone with a sparkling personality, boundless energy and bucket-loads of charm to take care of our clients, team and facility. You should know how to make excellent coffee (all of the types!), love crafting a cheese board but also have the ability to see something that needs doing before the rest of the team does - we’re a busy, fast paced environment and while we all chip in we need someone who takes pride in making sure everyone is operating at their best. Attention to detail is critical in this role.
You will be based at front of house - the main reception area - looking after everything from greeting clients and making sure they’re fed and watered, setting up suites and meeting rooms, providing drinks service, booking couriers, travel and maintenance, planning team events and ensuring everyone in the building has what they need. In addition, you may from time to time provide additional or remote support to our other locations and interstate teams. Prior barista experience is essential, and bar/cocktail skills would be considered favourably.
As a workplace, The Post Lounge is fun, challenging and high energy but we also care for our staff with various perks as part of our staff benefits including group fitness challenges, monthly movie tickets, the opportunity to salary sacrifice and skills expansion.
Within the company we have a strong focus on growth for our employees, so an interest in filmmaking and the post production process is essential - you don’t have to know everything now, but you do have to want to learn it all.
We want a special someone who is keen to grow with us - so before applying, please think about how this role might fit into your greater career goals. For reference, previous TPL Studio Assistants have moved into more senior roles at the company as well as roles with our sibling production companies and productions. This is an opportunity for you to get to know people in the industry and for them to get to know you.
