About the Role
Canoe is seeking a proactive Production Assistant with a minimum of two years experience to support the delivery of projects across our PR, social, and creative work-streams. You’ll work closely with senior colleagues to keep activity moving and help ensure projects run smoothly from brief to delivery.
We are looking for someone organised, calm under pressure, and comfortable working with a mix of internal teams and external partners. You’ll keep detail tight, solve problems early, and step in where support is needed. Some experience in a media or creative studio environment is helpful, along with a basic understanding of design processes across print and digital. Event experience is an advantage, but not essential. A personable manner and a willingness to learn will matter as much as technical skill.
