Freelance Production Assistant — Film​/TV ; Premiere Pro

Job Position(s): Freelance Production Assistant — Film​/TV ; Premiere Pro

Profiles Creative is hiring a Freelance Production Assistant for film and TV work based in Greater London. This role sits within an in-house film studio’s post-production workflow, supporting the team with Premiere Pro editing tasks including versioning, trailer work, and carting across TV and streaming projects. It suits an organised, detail-oriented post PA who knows their way around a timeline and wants consistent freelance work covering holiday absences.

About the Role

You will be embedded in an in-house studio team that produces content for film, television, and streaming platforms, stepping in to maintain output while permanent staff are away. Day-to-day work centres on Premiere Pro, with tasks ranging from managing project files and sequences to delivering versioned cuts for different platforms and markets. This is hands-on post-production support work, not a shadowing role.

Key Responsibilities

• Cut and deliver versioned edits in Premiere Pro, conforming to platform and broadcaster specifications across multiple projects simultaneously.
• Prepare and manage trailer assemblies, ensuring correct picture and audio sync across all deliverable formats.
• Handle carting duties, organising and logging media assets so the wider post-production workflow stays on schedule.
• Maintain clear project file structure within Premiere Pro, tracking sequence versions and ensuring editorial continuity across handovers.
• Liaise with the in-house team to flag technical issues or delivery conflicts before they affect the post schedule.
• Support localisation tasks for Scandinavian-language content where required, applying language skills to subtitling or versioning work.

What You Bring

• Solid working knowledge of Adobe Premiere Pro in a professional post-production environment, not just personal projects.
• Demonstrable experience in at least one of the following: carting, versioning for broadcast or streaming, or trailer production.
• A background in film, television, or streaming production, with credits that show you have worked to real delivery deadlines.
• Strong organisational skills suited to managing multiple sequences and assets under time pressure.
• Fluency in English is required. Working knowledge of a Scandinavian language is a genuine advantage for this role.

Why This Role

Profiles Creative places creative and production professionals with established in-house studios and broadcasters across the UK, and this engagement offers direct access to a working film studio environment in London. For a freelance production assistant looking to build episodic television and streaming credits, covering an in-house team gives you real workflow exposure rather than entry-level fetch-and-carry work. The role is a defined freelance cover position, making it a clean, reliable booking.
