Film and Photography Production Officer in London

May 2026 Permanent, full-time (37.5 hours per week) Hybrid working with regular travel to our London Bridge Office.

What the job involves:

• Great creative work relies on brilliant production behind the scenes. As our Film and Photography Production Officer, you’ll keep everything running smoothly, managing the logistics that support our film and photography output.
• From planning shoots and coordinating the finer details, to ensuring consent and documentation are accurate and up to date, you’ll play a key role in enabling high-quality work.
• You’ll also maintain an organised and accessible Digital Asset Library, making it easy for the team to find and use what they need.
• While this isn’t a creative role, it’s central to helping our creatives deliver powerful content consistently and effectively.

In practice, this could include:

• Planning and coordinating video and photography shoots, including schedules, call sheets, travel, equipment hire and catering.
• Working closely with our Senior Film and Photography Officer and Manager to make sure production plans support the creative vision.
• Managing key production documentation such as risk assessments, contracts, permits and licensing agreements.
• Proactively identifying potential risks, scheduling challenges or resourcing gaps, and helping to find practical solutions.
• Commissioning and onboarding freelancers, coordinating rotas and helping maintain strong supplier relationships.
• Making sure consent processes are followed properly, with accurate records that meet governance and GDPR standards.
• Overseeing the day-to-day management of the Digital Asset Library, including uploading content with clear metadata, usage rights and categorisation.
• Supporting ongoing improvements to the Digital Asset Library so content remains easy to find, well managed and compliant across the organisation.

What we want from you:

• You’re highly organised, detail-focused and take pride in keeping things running smoothly.
• While you don’t need to be a filmmaker or photographer, you’ll have a good understanding of how creative teams work and what they need to deliver their best work.
• You’ll be comfortable supporting productions so they run safely, efficiently and to a high standard.

We’d love you to bring:

• Strong organisation and project management skills, highly organised, detail-focused and proactive when it comes to spotting issues, solving problems and improving the way things work.
• A genuine interest in tools that improve workflow, organisation and collaboration, from AI to project management systems.
• Experience coordinating production logistics, including planning shoots, managing schedules, travel, suppliers and freelancers, and keeping documentation on track.
• A clear understanding of consent, usage rights and good governance, with a strong focus on accuracy and compliance.
• Ability to use digital systems for file and asset management, including DAMs, metadata and maintaining tidy, reliable records.
• A collaborative, solutions-focused style, with the ability to communicate clearly, build trusted relationships and stay calm under pressure.
• Motivation to enable brilliant storytelling by helping others do their best work.

Why work with us?

Every man needs to know about the most common cancer in men – prostate cancer. It’s a real and present danger that takes over 12,000 of our dads, grandads, brothers and friends each year. Prostate Cancer UK is the largest men’s health charity in the UK. We have a simple ambition – to stop prostate cancer damaging lives. We invest millions in research to revolutionise testing, treatment and care. We’re blazing a trail to a screening programme that could save thousands of lives with regular, accurate tests for all men at risk. And we work tirelessly to spread the word about risk and offer specialist support to people living with the disease. Work with us and you’ll see your efforts pay off as we give men and their families the power to navigate prostate cancer.

What we offer:

• Join our team and be part of an award‑winning charity. We’ll support you to develop your skills and expertise.
• Generous leave entitlements that increase with service.
• One ‘development day’ a month to use for training or personal development.
• Enhanced contributory pension scheme.
• Life insurance and group income protection.
• Health Cash Plan.
• Life and wellbeing advice and support via our Employee Assistance Programme.
• Discounted gym membership and high street shopping discounts.
• Loans for season tickets or cycles.

This role is in salary Band 2B, with a starting salary of £29,500 to £32,250 per year. We aim to pay the median salary for charity the sector. Following 12 months of successful service, colleagues will move to the midpoint of the pay band. The midpoint salary for this role is £34,750. Our salaries reflect that the London office is our contractual place of work. We also pay a working‑from‑home allowance at the HMRC tax‑free rate of £312 per year. We are committed to paying at least the London Living Wage for all roles and apply the updated rate each April.

Our commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion:

At Prostate Cancer UK we’re committed to righting health inequalities across the UK, starting with those faced by Black men. This includes ground‑breaking research into Black men’s risk and working with communities directly to overcome barriers to the diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer. To make this happen, we’ll be an inclusive, proactive organisation, as we strive to be Allies to Black communities. We’ll achieve this by advocating and working alongside those communities to promote change. We’re also working to be Allies to each other, not only protected groups. In 2024, we launched our New Allyship Training Programme. All colleagues at Prostate Cancer UK will be trained to act and identify as an Ally. We’ve also signed Business in the Community’s Race at Work Charter, as a dedication to our Black health equity work and wider EDI priorities.

Our people networks:

We’re continuously learning more about the needs of our colleagues, and have three amazing People Networks, sponsored by our Leadership team:

• Pride – A safe space where LGBTQ+ colleagues – and our allies – can share their diverse lived experiences, celebrate LGBTQ+ culture and history, and create new ideas about how our organisation can be more inclusive and representative of LGBTQ+ people.
• Mind and Body – Here to increase awareness, promote wellbeing and support colleagues affected by neurodiversity, mental health problems, disability and long‑term illness.
• Culture Club – Here to increase awareness and celebrate the different cultures and beliefs that we have in the organisation, so that we all have our cultures felt and feel welcomed.

How and where we work:

Colleagues attend the office at least four days per month (pro rata for part‑time colleagues) to collaborate, build relationships, and support projects and decision‑making. You can choose where to work the rest of the time. Travel to the office is a commute, so we pay our own travel costs. Additional in‑person attendance will be required during your first few months for induction and training, to support you to learn the role and get to know colleagues. We trust colleagues to work flexibly while balancing personal commitments with the needs of the charity, and we are committed to making reasonable adjustments for colleagues with a disability, neurodiversity, or a long‑term physical or mental health condition.
