About us

You’ll be assisting the Finance Coordinator with purchasing, organising expenses and files (boring but essential!), and if you have some extra time, you’ll also lend a hand to the Production team during the final preps before Nowhere kicks off. A great short-term role if you want to contribute behind the scenes!
