Screen WM Recruiting

Screen WM is the lead agency for all film, television and digital media in central England. Exciting new national developments in Education, Archive and Exhibition mean we're creating a central new department in order to advance fresh strategies and focus at a regional level.

You'll roll out region-wide, nationally connected Education Hubs and Film Clubs over three years, establish and lead a high-level Education Delivery Group, and successfully deliver a highly innovative digital archive project.
