London, United Kingdom Connection Crew Full time

Connection Who?

We are Connection Crew: a Social Enterprise providing teams of talented people to solve complex production challenges - from building epic stages to crewing iconic events and more – working across a range of sectors including events, construction and TV production.

18 years in the making, multiple awards won, and 18k+ events under our belt

Our Mission

We're on a mission to provide opportunities for people who have been affected by homelessness or faced barriers to work to access training, mentoring, and employment in our crew. Ultimately, our goal is to help end homelessness and reduce inequality by supporting people to access work that works for them.

To do our best by our people, we need to do our best by the planet too. That’s why we are aiming for Net Zero by 2030, working in partnership with our clients to drive down carbon and reduce waste wherever we can.

What you'll be doing

Our crew are busy

You'll be working across London and further afield on events, film and TV locations, studios, and construction sites. The work is hard and the hours can vary drastically each week. You'll rarely be in the same place from one day to the next.

A typical job could include:

building sets and stages for a festival
loading tonnes and tonnes of flight cases and equipment onto trucks
setting up furniture, screens and sound systems for a conference at a 5* hotel
installing modular systems on a construction site
moving scenery and props on a film set
Who you’ll be

someone with a positive attitude and want to work
physically fit and up for demanding work
able to communicate effectively and work well in a team
always punctual and able to work to deadlines
happy to work around the clock, 365 days a year (with breaks and time off obvs, we’re not monsters)
Useful experience

The following are experiences that are desirable, but by no means essential. If you meet the criteria above, we want to hear from you

manual handling experience of any kind, preferably heavy lifting
experience of working with audio-visual systems
any experience of the events industry, construction, or film and television
driving license and experience of driving commercial vehicles
operators of telehandlers, forklifts, cherry pickers or scissor lifts
CSCS, SSSTS, SMSTS, PASMA
The Contract

Self-employed
Freelance contract (you will need a UTR)
London Living Wage
Flexible Working Hours - set your availability on our app
Location

Our HQ is at Units 1 & 2, St James Mews, 276 St James Road, London SE1 5JX.

You'll be working across London at different venues every day. This job involves traveling all across London at all times of the day and night. If we send you out of London we'll arrange all the travel and accommodation.

The Application Process

Submit your application by hitting the ‘apply’ button (you’ll be taken to our website) and then answer the questions. You don't need a CV to apply, but please do upload it if you want to share more about your experience.

Our process looks like this:

Step 1 - Apply online
Step 2 - Attend practical group interview
Step 3 - Complete our basic training
Step 4 - Pass our practical assessment
Step 5 - Attend company induction and orientation
Steps 2 - 4 are on the same day. Once you've passed your test we'll invite you back for the induction a few days later.
We will communicate with you and keep you up-to-date via email throughout the process.

We’re happy to discuss reasonable adjustments to the process as well as the job - before you apply, or at any stage in your application. This is not limited to, but could include, alternative format documents, help submitting your application, or creating time for you to settle in before your in-person meeting.

Accessibility

This is a physical job involving lots of manual handling and traveling to different locations using vehicles and public transport. You need to be fluent in spoken English for safety reasons and able to understand written instructions in emails, text messages and signage.

Equality, Diversity and Inclusion

We’re a friendly and inclusive bunch, and welcome applications regardless of race, religion, colour, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, disability, nationality, or any other identifying characteristic.

If you’d like to talk about reasonable adjustments or just get some more information, please get in touch
