Year-Round Volunteer Opportunities
Sheffield Doc/Fest has volunteer positions open for a Festival Assistant. You must be able to commit to at least 2 days per week for a minimum 3 month period. Office hours are 10am – 6pm.
We need an extra pair of hands in the office to support the Doc/Fest team with its operations and programmes throughout the year. We are looking for someone with some office administration experience, dedication to the job, and a good sense of humour.
Duties include, assisting industry professionals on the phone, processing film submissions, research, updating our website, assisting with marketing campaigns, and updating our database.
This is a great opportunity to work closely with the festival team in the planning phase of the festival, gain valuable office experience, and develop relationships within the industry.
