Cannock, Staffordshire, United Kingdom Staffordshire County Council Full time

We Are Staffordshire is a partnership funded by Staffordshire County Council, and exists to promote and celebrate the county, raise its profile beyond our borders, and support work to attract inward investment, talent and tourism, for the benefits of Staffordshire people and businesses.

Fast forward three years and our impact cannot be underestimated. We've made huge strides against our mission; convening roundtables with national brands and changemakers, celebrating Staffordshire at the House of Commons, recruiting over 200 ambassadors to tell and sell our story beyond our borders, and delivering first class networking and celebration events. A thriving and resourced film office will directly support this work, providing profile raising opportunities that could put Staffordshire on the national and international stage.

Staffordshire County Council has committed to launching a pilot Film Office here in the county over the next 3 years, shaped and led by the Film Office Manager. To do this, the jobholder will work closely with Creative England and establish a governance structure and Steering Committee that feeds into the wider Place Board, to guide filming across the county with key strategic partners and establish a price list of council owned assets which could be used as filming locations.

How we present our offer will be key, and the timely launch of a Film Office website and associated marketing collateral to present Staffordshire as open to film' will be central to our approach.

Showcasing the return on investment for this pilot programme will be key, and working with the head of service to establish clear KPI's and success criteria will help monitor performance of the service over the pilot programme.

Finally, collaboration will be essential, working with key internal partners including the Staffordshire and Stoke-on-Trent Local Visitor Economy Partnership (LVEP), Staffordshire County Councils Skills & Employability service and Culture and Communities Service to leverage relevant opportunities to support increased awareness and take-up of our visitor economy offer, labour market and cultural offer.

Main Responsibilities

As a TV or film industry or production expert, the jobholder will work with the wider We Are Staffordshire team to really shape and develop our film office offer here in Staffordshire, leading a taskforce of partners to unlock the opportunity and generate proposals, interest and demand.

Key responsibilities will include:

  1. Launching a Film Office website and taking ownership of the associated marketing collateral / campaign activity that presents Staffordshire professionally and in line with our wider We Are Staffordshire brand, as open to film'
  2. Working closely with Creative England and establish a governance structure and associated Steering Comittee of business partners that feeds into the wider Place Board, to guide filming across the county and establish a price list of council owned assets which could be used as filming locations.
  3. Establishing clear KPI's and success criteria to monitor performance over the life of the pilot programme.
  4. Working with key internal partners including the Staffordshire and Stoke-on-Trent LVEP, Staffordshire County Councils Skills & Employability service and Culture and Communities Service to exploit opportunities where relevant and appropriate, supporting increased awareness and take-up of our visitor economy offer, labour market and cultural offer.
The Ideal Candidate

It's an exciting time to join Staffordshire County Council as we launch a new Film Office offer right here in our amazing county, and we need an expert to join our enthusiastic and dynamic team to take the charge in developing our film office offer, leading a taskforce of partners to unlock the opportunity.

You'll have experience in the film/TV or production industry and understanding of how to pull proposals to enquires together; stakeholder management experience and a desire to bring partners together on the journey will also be ideal.

There's a golden opportunity to really shape and build our film office from the ground up, work with a network of passionate attractions and businesses and an organisation that is ambitious and keen to do things differently. If you like shaping new projects, love working with people and have a background as a location manager, researcher, production manager or otherwise experience in film and TV, we'd love to hear from you
