Assistant to Talent Agent – Markham, Froggatt & Irwin

Posted January 15th 2024

Do you have a passion for the world of film, theatre and television? Markham, Froggatt & Irwin represent some of the industry’s best actors, presenters, and writers. An exciting opportunity has arisen for an assistant to join them and support one of their agents.

The role of an agent’s assistant centres around ensuring the smooth running of the agent’s office through effective organisation and exceptional client care. Client promotion, seeking new opportunities across the industry globally and safeguarding their interests is at the heart of what an agent does. The successful candidate will need to quickly gain a comprehensive understanding and knowledge of each of the client’s work and specific requirements, building loyalty to MF&I and The Curtis Brown Group.

Our ideal candidate will have excellent communication skills, both verbal and written; exceptional organisational skills; a keen eye for detail and accuracy; resilience and adaptability; and an enthusiasm for film, theatre and television. Whilst this role is collaborative in its nature and will involve working closely with the Agent, there is also regular level of independent working, and so our ideal candidate will have confidence using their initiative and problem-solving autonomously. Some experience in an administrative role would be useful, and some experience working within the creative industry, e.g. in a talent/casting agency or in a supporting role for a television/film department of an agency, would be beneficial although not essential as we will provide the relevant training and support.

Salary Range: Competitive salary, dependent on experience

Start Date: As soon as possible
